A Michigan pageant contestant and fan of President Donald Trump was stripped of her title for what she calls discrimination against her conservative political views.

Kathy Zhu, a University of Michigan student, was dismissed Thursday as a Miss World America pageant participant when the organization described the content of her social media as "offensive, insensitive and inappropriate." according to a letter from the pageant that she posted on her Twitter account.

Zhu is a well-known political commentator and online figure, amassing approximately 80,000 followers in her Instagram and Twitter accounts combined.

"I have seen this happen before," Zhu told the Free Press on Thursday. "It is just not okay to be prejudiced against people who just have a different political view as you.”

Miss World America did not respond with comments despite repeated attempts to contact her.

This is insane. @MissWorldLtd Beauty Queen @PoliticalKathy stripped of her Miss Michigan title for...being a CONSERVATIVE? Unbelievable. #stopthebiashttps://t.co/Le6vxWAsJN

Despite the apparent support from her peers, the tweets Zhu claims caused Miss World America to dissociate with her have caused backlash on social media.

But Zhu still defends the two now-deleted tweets that she blames for her firing.

The first is an incident that dates to 2018, in which Zhu went up to a Muslim Student Association booth celebrating World Hijab Day and declined to wear a hijab when prompted. She then tweeted:

"There is a 'try a hijab on' booth at my college campus.
So you're telling me that it's now just a fashion accessory and not a religious thing? Or are you just trying to get women used to being oppressed under Islam?"​

"I said that it was (getting women used to) being oppressed because there are so many women in Middle Eastern countries that are being punished and stoned for refusing to wear a hijab," said Zhu. "Nobody is talking about that in the West because all they see is everyone being at peace, but that is the beauty of America."

The second is a reply to another user in which Zhu says:

"Did you know the majority of black deaths are caused by other blacks? Fix problems within your own community before blaming others."​

"This applies for every community," Zhu said. "If there is a problem, fix things in your own community before lashing out at others and trying to find an issue there. That is all I wanted to say. It is not a problem against black people. Obviously I am not racist or stuff like that."

Zhu said that Miss World America should be more specific and clearly define what "insensitive" means, as she does not believe anything she posted was insensitive.

For Reference: NO ONE in America is discriminated because of their conservative views.

They are discriminated because they join hate groups and march with guns on college campuses promoting discrimination. Because they attack and abuse people who aren't white, christian, and straight. Because they use their government job to prevent gays from having the same rights as all Americans. Because they actively fight the supreme court's ruling in Roe versus Wade. Because they think Christianity is under attack any time somebody reminds them the United States government is legally forbidden from taking orders from the church. Because they genuinely believe Freedom means the freedom to oppress other Americans freedoms.

And plays the victim card.

 

[Paratus]

She ought to take responsibility for her actions. If she couldn’t abide by the rules of the position she shouldn’t have accepted it when awarded it in the first place.

 

[Victorian Gray]

And plays the victim card.

Surprised that she didn't blame antifa.

 

[MomentsofSanity]

So is this going to be another one of those times where a business isn’t allowed to do what it wants? Conservatives? Help me out here.

The last thing the party of personal responsibility does is take responsibility.

"Did you know the majority of black deaths are caused by other blacks? Fix problems within your own community before blaming others."​

"This applies for every community," Zhu said. "If there is a problem, fix things in your own community before lashing out at others and trying to find an issue there. That is all I wanted to say. It is not a problem against black people. Obviously I am not racist or stuff like that."

Two things, and I'll address the easier first: If you have to put a racist disclaimer on your statement, there's a fair chance it is, and a virtual 100% chance it's a bad idea to post.

Second most "black deaths," are due to medical causes, except for Black Males from 15-34 where homicide is the leading cause. If we apply our idiot autocorrect, and infer that she meant most black homicide is committed by other black individuals, there's actually pretty good evidence that is true. But, most white homicide is committed by white individuals (though the odds of being a homicide victim are significantly lower if you're white.) It doesn't really prove much about which community needs to fix itself.

The bigger thing that those stats don't address, is what is the actual cause of the homicide? While not absolving the murderers at all, who or what creates/perpetuates the conditions that fuel the much higher murder rates among young black men? I'd argue that is as much a cause as the individual the actually commits the crime.

I can't even fake any concern over this. In the pageant business there are a fixed number of platitudes the women are allowed to parrot, any speech outside of of those clearly defined limits is forbidden.
The young lady has learned a valuable lesson at little cost.

 

[UNCjigga]

Stripping away her meaningless title is almost as dumb as grown women competing in beauty pageants to begin with.

Right... ABSOLUTELY right.

By chance, did you think about the topic at hand - along with the woman at hand before thinking of such an asinine post? I can totally see her now with an M16 in hand at a white nationalist rally... Oh wait... She clearly isn't white you fucking retard.

Did thinking ever cross your mind you insignificant shill? No. Obviously fucking not. Go parrot yourself shilling elsewhere.

She supports a political viewpoint that promotes racism as exemplified by their top tier leader. Her leader has also been identified as having committed 10 separate instances of obstruction of justice. Her leader is also an admitted adulterous womanizer.

As long as Trump is the titular head of the Repub Party there is no separating his way of ruling the nation with lies, with deception, with criminal intent from any other individual who sides with him.

Kathy Zhu seems to think that her political views are her own. Wrong. Her views are whatever Trump says they are because he speaks for her as well as every other Repub in the party. Trump demands their loyalty and unquestioning support for his word and deed.

There can be no separating of ideological differences between Trump and his followers. If she follows Trump then she also follows his racist agenda, his disloyalty to the nation in favor of himself and his instinct for self-preservation that encompasses every dastardly cowardly selfishly greed driven ploy he and the Repubs in Congress can think of in order for them to stay in power.

She, by standing with Trump, defends every decision he makes and every foul, deceitful dishonest thing he does and says.

Her "conservative point of view" is Trump's point of view. His point of view is vile, inhuman, devoid of compassion, morals and ethics. He owns her soul and she thinks she can be who she thinks she is as an individual when in fact she is soiled by associating herself with that............man.

I was humming the Battle Hymn of the Republic while I read this, it really adds to the impact.

 

[JEDIYoda]

I can`t cry any tears for her...….no Kleenex needed!!

 

[pcgeek11]

Beauty pageants are sexist anyway.

Who cares.

 

[JSt0rm]

shes not ugly but not seeing why she was the top dog in michigan?

 

[pcgeek11]

Just imagine what the others looked like.

 

[khon]

I don't agree with her tweets, but nothing in there bad enough to justify removing her title. People are way too sensitive these days, and yet they seem to seek out things to be offended at, so they can pretend to be outraged.

 

[Meghan54]

Since she is an immigrant from China, is this the appropriate place for "If you don't like it, you can go back where you came from."

Did I do that right?

 

[pmv]

I would agree with you, if only the 'title wasn't something completely silly and arbitrary in the first place. What is it awarded for other than superficial and entirely subjective ideas about looks and 'charm'?

What is given on subjective and superficial criteria, can be taken away on subjective and superficial criteria.

Had she lost a job or post that was based on more objective criteria, one where her attitudes shouldn't be relevant, I'd agree the punishment was a bit harsh, based on what sound like just standard-issue conservative attitudes.

There's big bucks in tits and ass. The crown is a very marketable item. From six figure modeling contracts to mall openings.

 

[sdifox]

Lol she lost before the actual pageant started.

I got confused by the wording... She did have the title.

 

[Bitek]

She sounds like a big crybaby tho, just like many of these "conservative" media figures.

Basic game is:

Constantly be offended by others, which justifies shit talk, which often dips into racism/bigotry, then be shocked when others are offended by your offensive statements, and defend yourself by calling others oversensitive.

Probably hoping she can cry her way to spot on Fox news.

Conservatives are free to start their own Miss Conservative World contest. The original is ridiculous enough, but I guess there's room for multiple forms of ridiculousness.
