A really hateful Twitter user (@seeksmaria) decided to make an ass of herself going after a Black lady (@AfroSabi) for making cookies with Irish butter for… a truly unhinged number of reasons. It devolved almost immediately, and included the phrases “Ireland is falling apart because of too many cows” & “I never saw a single Black person in Ireland”
Seeksmaria is an absolute scum level human who devotes her life to “uncovering pretendians” (folks who pretend to be Native American)- except her methods are widely rejected by Natives bc she goes after our most beloved folks, and uses straight up garbage tactics based on entirely unreliable evidence.
Due to this nature, she accused said Black baker of being “anti-Native” based on her use of Irish butter, and uh, refusal to budge on these ridiculous assertions. Irish Twitter rallied, and the rest is history.
As a half Native / half Irish gal who has had to deal with Seeksmaria’s garbage for years, it was a delightful afternoon to see her absolutely panned over & over!
