And pooja might have apologized in private we dont know..thats the first thing a normal person would do..who would want to risk their career by upsetting someone who has so much hold.
And i am not equating other such incidents with this one..i have observed the pattern in them, like the supposed victim(not the victim of the controversy, but the one against whom the comment was made) comes up with support once everyone calms down and pretend to be a bigger person..i am not comparing the scenario, i am just comparing the pattern and saying i dont want to see that here..and i have already corrected my statement because here both are criminals and victim now(after the drastic turn of events), so it holds true for both the party involved... i am not asking either of them to be a bigger person, its their choice.. but dont pretend to be a bigger person later when you are not..either you be the person with a bigger heart or avoid pretending to be one at all.
I have to disagree. Pooja made an unprovoked comment. Drunk comment, confusion re: what account she was on... whatever. SHE made that comment with no provocation whatsoever. Even if she wanted to keep the hacked stance, it ain't that difficult to say, "Hey, Sam. That wasn't me. Something wrong with my account. You are lovely. Muah, muah, Pooja."
Instead, she made a statement without even a trace of apology.
Feminism doesn't mean you're obligated to ignore it when another woman is rude to you or your friend.
Not only that, what Samantha and her friends are doing is mocking the excuse. They're not calling Pooja names. They're not encouraging fans to go after her with death threats and rape threats.
So no, both aren't equally culpable. Actually thus far, Samantha isn't culpable at all.
