PR and it makes the actor look good while generating PR attention for the politicians
This is a leaked private strategy call, not an ad. It wasn't supposed to be made public that she was participating. I get using a famous actress in an ad, sure, but this was an internal strategy meeting, to discuss things like how to win elections. Being a celebrity doesn't qualify you for that.
I mean, most of a political party isn't elected by anybody other than their political party. You think Fox News puts on Kid Rock or Scott Biao because of their savvy political experience?
No but my guess is said celeb was part of the strategy and so they wanted to at least consult them somewhat about what they wanted from them etc etc.
Again, an ad I get, but I doubt anyone is having a strategy conference with Kid Rock. About anything.
It's marketing strategy - PR. It's not like the White House is relying on Debra Messing to tell them whether they should support abortion rights.
Politicians want to get a message out there. Actors, pop stars, models etc. have a metric fuckton of followers, some of whom give a shit what that celebrity says. So they would hold a strategy meeting with supportive celebrities, "influencers" (even typing that word makes me feel soiled) and PR wonks because they help get the message out there. It's not complicated. It might be a sign that the world is fucked, but it's not complicated.
"The bonds between the pimp lobby and the transgenderist lobby"? Misgendering as part of the headline?
OK, the tweeter lost all credibility by being a hateful shitstain. I'm gonna look for an alternative translation before I believe this.
As soon as the term "transgenderist" pops up all credibility is gone. In general the right is working very hard to create labels such as transgenderist and abortionist, both used to shut down opponents, and both just a step above the modern trend of calling every political opponent a "groomer".
See I just went with "English may not be the tweeters native language so probably give them a bit of leeway"
I'm going with "it's a random schmuck and nobody got hurt so who cares?"
Like, far as I know nobody's defending this schmuck, so even if the source is entirely accurate (lmao), okay? And?

Please do not engage in personal attacks
Dwarven's entire shtick is using bad faith arguments to justify his abhorrent personal beliefs; him finding one entirely tangential, inconsequential event "proves" he's correct about "the transgenderist lobby".
Well a politician in Mexico and sure no-one got hurt per say but it definitely cause a lot of disruption to what was meant to be a discussion trying to tackle sex trafficking apparently. So yeh technically no-one was harmed but it did rather disrupt an attempt to prevent harm to others.
How would you even know my beliefs? You never bother to read when I write them down and scurry away the moment you're even mildly challenged to defend your wild claims.
Tweeter seems to be some women's rights group. According to website seem to be feminist, pro-choice and trans exclusionary. Tho latter seems about 90% of their advocacy, considering how most of their articles of declaration contain a variation of "this or that must be based on sex and not 'gender identity'", with gender identity or related terms always in parentheses.
If the tweeter leaps right into open transphobia, then I'd think its more likely that they're lying than making an honest mistake.
You're not wrong about "transgenderist", but "abortionist" is a real word. That's not some derogatory invention, it's just someone who performs abortions.
But that isn't the way Clarence Thomas and his ilk are using it, and in a supreme court concurrence no less.
Tstorm keeps calling abortionist mass murderers, so IDK how he reaches that conclusion
