Eryka, the rage that I felt reading through Cris Moroccos meatball video comments is indescribable. How the fans welcomed him and were glad to ‘see a familiar face’ it seemed to me that they’d just take the old bon appetit in a second if it meant pushing the racism under the rug.
Like I was pissed before reading the vulture article. I thought, where is the solidarity, chris? For him to stay and have kept quiet during these 4 months really shows where his priorities lie. I honestly defended him in my head, made excuses for him but after Sohla herself said what she said about Chris, makes me vvv done with him, but also brad and andy.
God!!!!!!! Yeah!!!!!!!!!!!

#Answered#Anon#I know we're like not supposed to watch the video but I did and I hated the vibes it was so weird and uncomfortable for me because obviousl#It would be why wouldn't it be??? They're avoiding the problem#And then he said like I need to be here to tell stories about this stuff like meatballs and I'm like Sir???? These are not the stories that#Even need to be heard???????????????????? Have u no awareness??#Anyways yeah tha rticle made me lose my mind the comment section made me lose my mind people were like 'how can you blame him for staying#He's got a family to feed' and I'm like??? He's still the test kitchen director??? He still has a job for the magazine??? He's choosing to#Get supplemental income from video???? Like no it's not out of necessity??????#And yeah the comment section was just full of absolute fools that made me angry and ruined my day and those are my thoughts on that#Also Brad and Andy have lost my respect everytime I see Brad on my Instagram page I get a li'l more annoyed#He's so vocal about the wrong things like???#He doesn't seem to want to truly learn what's wrong and that's what's frustrating. His understanding seems very surface level#Anyways I haven't seen the new video yet and also I'm sorry for responding so late I was trying to get the energy to just rant#I hope you're doing well and taking care of yourself :)#More: I'm thinking about how Chris has been silent like he said nothing of substance during the video it was all fluff and like God.#He really was told that he had racist hiring practices and decided to do nothing about like. How can that be something someone who wants to#Do better would do???#Also just like..... People really are just so desperate to act as though nothing is wrong and everything is fixed as though these aren't#Systematic issues that still haven't actually been addressed by corporate like..... BA refuses to do anything meaningful on any level?????#For some reason????#Like I see the attempts by editorial to push more no white recipes and jazz and I so appreciate it but like God. The foundation is shit#I can't imagine being able to rebuild anything good when they refuse to dig it out first
