people need to have some empathy, this woman has clearly suffered beyond comprehension at the hands of whoever edited her eyes out of the poster. a little humanity goes a long way atrl

While this specific reaction may seem unwarranted, Cynthia Erivo has been the subject of a hate campaign ever since her casting was announced. Racism is alive and real, and I see so many people saying "well I've never seen it, so it can't be that bad", but it's a lot easier to avoid that vitriol when it's not aimed at you. 

 

I have no doubt she was seeing herself edited left and right with people commenting that it was way better than the original. That IS disrespectful, whether you want to believe it or not. 

 

This reaction was the culmination of an amalgamation of disdain and hate weighing down too hard on a woman who is only

human and anyone who can't see what this really is lacks scope and the ability to think critically. 

Aside from that, the poster everyone thinks is "sooo much better" is horrendous. It makes her look like a botched prostitute who couldn't put on her cheap red lipstick properly due to withdrawal shakes. I'd be offended too.

 

Not everything is racism….

Tell me you didn't read the comment or don't know how to read without telling me. Y'all are such simple-minded people on this website and never cease to amaze me!

Eye don't think it's that big of a deal

When I first saw that she was offended by the edits, I said "I understand where she's coming from". But then I looked at the original poster which had the eyes covered and the edit that just aimed to recreate that to accuracy instead of Cynthia's eyes being visible, I concluded she's overreacting. Also the "***** green" meme is literally just a meme, it's not supposed to be serious. She needs to have a sense of humor if she's gonna be on the internet. Like that long ass insta story/post and emotional reaction is not necessary for this at all.
