This is not a documentary. She wanted to show that exact type of autism and it would not be possible with person who actually has it. Do you understand this? So if the movie turned it badly and causes a real uproar in the autistic community because of maddie’s portrayal, who or what would you blame for it? Would you then blame them for not hiring an actress with experience in the field? please enlighten me to death Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also I believe she said many times they consulted with autistic people and they also tried working with autistic person but it was harmful for their health therefore they went with someone who could do it without getting hurt by it.

If people who are apart of the community are actively working on the film, then there's literally no argument. It's not offensive then. If Sia didn't do her research and if she didn't consult any autistic people while making the film, then yes, a legitimate argument could be made about it being offensive. However, she did do those things, so there's no argument to be made. 🦠🧙♀️🥀📸🎉👻🕺🧟💊💖☎️🔪👤🐺🌱🌎 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But then she told an autistic actor on Twitter “maybe you’re just sh** at acting” or something to that effect and I was like 😬. If you’re mean and dumb enough to say something like that maybe you DO deserve to be cancelled. She said "Maybe you're just a bad actor". That's something you'd hear someone say to you at an audition, they won't try to sugar coat it for you. If I was a bad actor I'd like to hear people say it so I can get better. If I was making a movie of course I'd want to get a good actor to play the parts I wrote. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It just felt kinda gross to me. building a daydream Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The terms "racist," "homophobic," "sexist," etc. are used so liberally, it's so annoying. Is it bad optics? Sure, maybe. But Sia is not a racist person If y'all can defend Gaga doing this: then there's no reason to go after Sia. I don’t defend that.

MonsterofFame 1,785 Posted December 10, 2020 Share Posted December 10, 2020 Why don’t you all focus on cancelling Chris Brown, R Kelly, or some other certified terrible person instead of trying to tear down Sia. Pathetic. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It literally has nothing to do with racism, and I think we all already know that this is supposed to be an exaggerated tan to represent the stars of that moment 💜 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
