In today’s America, it seems that success, beauty, and traditional values have become crimes worthy of public execution in the court of social media. I’ve seen some crazy stuff, but this takes the cake. The latest battlefield in our ongoing culture war reveals just how far the progressive left has strayed from reality – and common sense. What started as a simple advertising campaign for blue jeans has morphed into yet another example of leftist intolerance masquerading as moral superiority.

The controversy centers around a Hollywood actress who dared to participate in an American Eagle campaign with the playful tagline “good jeans.” But in the twisted logic of today’s woke warriors, wordplay itself has become problematic when paired with being pretty and, heaven forbid, conservative values. Since when did selling jeans become a political statement?

Beauty Under Attack

Sydney Sweeney, the 27-year-old star of HBO’s “Euphoria,” found herself at the center of fake outrage after appearing in American Eagle’s latest campaign. The ads, featuring the tagline “Sydney Sweeney Has Great Jeans,” sparked immediate meltdowns from leftist critics who claimed the play on “jeans” versus “genes” was actually Nazi propaganda. Yes, you read that correctly – a clothing advertisement featuring an attractive blonde woman has been branded as fascist messaging. What’s next – is smiling while blonde a hate crime?

The unhinged response from progressives included accusations that American Eagle was sending “dog whistles” to minorities that they weren’t welcome. One particularly deranged take came from TikTokers claiming the company – owned by an Orthodox Jewish family, the Schottensteins – was promoting racial purity. The mental gymnastics required to reach such conclusions would be impressive if they weren’t so disturbing.

Sweeney Piles On the Woke

Here’s the kicker – public records confirm that Sweeney registered as a Republican in Monroe County, Florida, in June 2024. This happened right around the same time she purchased a $13.5 million oceanfront mansion in the area. But rather than respecting her political choice, the left has responded with typical vitriol and attempts at cancelation.

From Daily Wire:

Actress Sydney Sweeney appears to be a registered Republican, according to a new report from left-wing website BuzzFeed.

BuzzFeed reported on Sweeney’s apparent political party affiliation on Saturday, following backlash from leftists online over a Sweeney-centered jean ad campaign. The tone of the article was seemingly to “out” or shame the actress.

The Daily Wire reviewed records that show a Sydney B. Sweeney is a registered Republican in Florida. The middle name of Sweeney, the actress, is reportedly Bernice.

The story took an even more interesting turn when President Trump learned about Sweeney’s political affiliation. Upon discovering that the actress is a registered Republican, Trump’s response was both immediate and enthusiastic: “She’s a registered Republican? Oh, now I love her ad.” The president added, “You’d be surprised at how many people are Republicans. That’s what I wouldn’t have known, but I’m glad you told me that. If Sydney Sweeney is a registered Republican, I think her ad is fantastic.”

Standing Her Ground

This isn’t Sweeney’s first encounter with progressive rage. Remember when ads just sold products instead of pushing agendas? Well, in 2022, she faced similar attacks after throwing a 60th birthday party for her mother where some guests wore “Make 60 Great Again” hats. Rather than apologize or grovel, Sweeney defended her family and called out the absurdity of politicizing a birthday celebration.

Perhaps most revealing is the resurfaced 2019 video showing Sweeney expertly handling firearms at the Taran Tactical Innovations facility in California. The footage displays impressive marksmanship and comfort with weapons – skills that apparently make her even more of a target for liberal ire. Vice President JD Vance summed up the situation perfectly, advising Democrats to “continue to tell everybody who thinks Sydney Sweeney is attractive is a Nazi. That appears to be their actual strategy.”

And here’s where it gets really good – the market has spoken louder than any Twitter mob. American Eagle’s stock surged by 10-20% following the campaign launch, adding between $200-400 million to the company’s market capitalization. When American Eagle stood by their spokesperson rather than caving to pressure, they were rewarded with success. That’s a lesson more companies should learn.

The truth is simple: Sydney Sweeney represents everything the woke mob fears – a successful, beautiful woman who refuses to bow down to their rules. She exercises her Second Amendment rights, supports her family’s political expressions, and maintains her career without bowing to woke ideology. Now that sanity’s back in the White House, we need more celebrities with the courage to be themselves. No more virtue-signaling conformists. No more angry feminist women who hate traditional beauty.

The left’s hatred only proves she’s doing something right. And Trump’s impressed – that should tell you everything you need to know.
