Alexi McCammond's attacker Christine Davitt also made racist tweets

Will Davitt win the hypocrite-of-the-month award?

Christine Davitt

This blog has covered Alexi McCammond previously. She was going to be the editor of Teen Vogue, until the racist tweets she sent in 2011 and 2012 caught up with her.

To recap, these are the tweets in question:

Now it turns out that Davitt has made her own racist tweets:

A senior Teen Vogue staffer who opposed Alexi McCammond’s hiring as editor-in-chief over troubling tweets as a teen had herself repeatedly dropped the N-word in online posts, according to a report.

Christine Davitt, a senior social media manager at the Condé Nast mag, had earlier this month made public a letter by staff complaining about McCammond’s hiring “in light of her past racist and homophobic tweets,” according to Fox News.

“So proud of my @teenvogue colleagues. The work continues…” Davitt wrote in the post on her social media that has all now been made private.

Here are Davitt’s racist tweets:

Tut tut tut! I wonder if Davitt is for the chop like her foe McCammond?

In my previous post I noted that wokism is low on forgiveness:

Not so with wokeness: there it's "once a sinner, always a sinner". Old infractions that the sinner thought had been forgiven can be brought up again, years later.

As an example of which, here’s Steven W Thrasher castigating Condé Nast editor-in-chief Anna Wintour for hiring Alexi McCammond:

The important item here is (e). McCammond whote stuff 10 years ago, when she was still a minor, and now 10 years later there’s a spate of attacks on that ethnicity — something McCammond couldn’t have known then — which disqualifies her for a job now! (And presumably, according to Thrasher, any high-status job at any point in the future). I do hope for Thrasher’s sake he doesn’t have any racist tweets in his past.

Or here’s Johanna Hoffman, also talking about McCammond:

Hoffman has, according to her own account, never changed any aspect of her worldview since she was 17. Such rigidity of mind! I’m sure if she’d lived 300 years ago, she’d be an enthusiastic supporter of burning witches
