I don't know why you're trying to grandstand on Domestic violence like we're all here saying "horray we love DV" instead of saying yeah this campaign is tone deaf and they clearly didn't realise.

None of this changes that facts that as I said before and said again, antisemitism is on the rise, nazi ideology is on the rise and it shows a clear lack of being able to read to the room doing a campaign with this messaging.

Before you like others start making points I'm not saying I'll pre-emptively say.

No Sydney isn't a nazi. No she shouldn't be ashamed of who she is. It's good to campaign for a good cause like DV. And holding up anyone as a standard for great genes is bad regardless of skin/hair/eye colour.

I'm just waiting for someone, anyone to actually address anything being said.

How about your corner of the room is not the whole room?  Your opinion on it being tone deaf is not the only opinion on the matter.  Does that address YOUR opinion?

Edit:

I am not trying to grandstand but it seems odd that not one poster had mentioned a major point of the ad campaign which was to use Sweeney's clout and design (the butterfly motif) to raise funds for the text line.  NPR didn't even mention it this morning that I heard.  Too many people got hung up on the wrong thing in my opinion.  You are free to disagree with that opinion because mine is no better than yours.  Different strokes for different folks.

For you and others I can totally see them thinking it tone deaf.  We all have opinions and we of course all think they are right or justified. The very nature of opinion.

Sorry if you had started to respond before I made the edit.  I almost put it in another post.  

There's lots of opinions on this, but the relevant ones here are your opinion and my opinion, that's why we're having a conversation between the 2 of us. 

I just think they're 2 very different conversations the campaign being for DV victims is objectively good, we can all agree, that doesn't mean that we can't criticise it in any way.

If someone was invoking images of slavery but the campaign was for blind orphans and we're all like hey wait why are you use slave imagery? the response isn't "Omg you guys are ignoring the orphans don't they matter?"
