So, she already looks like a hypocrite and she's already acting like a Karen, but then Prajje calls her out for being fake and comes to Kenneth's defense, and she fucking loses it. Worse, when Kenneth tried to give her a chance to save face and back out, she got even angrier and lashed out even harder at him by saying that "I think this is fucking bullshit! Just do the switch!" She was clearly mad at herself for putting herself in that corner, but she projected that anger straight at Kenneth who was being polite to her. So, she had two basic options at this point:ġ) Suck it up and let him have the model and take a note to try and tone down the performative offense on behalf of the actual POCs on the show.Ģ) Suck it up and take the hit for being a hypocrite and to try and soften it with politeness. By going so over the top with how giving someone who wasn't black a black model was "cultural appropriation" (which no one was saying), she immediately knew that she'd be seen as a hypocrite if she refused. The problem is that Meg had already backed herself into a corner. Under ordinary circumstances Meg would have been perfectly within her rights to say, "I'm sorry, but you needed to ask me this before we started cutting patterns." I think it's important to note that Kenneth really was committing a faux pas by asking for a switch this late in the challenge. At the point where she was saying, "I feel offended on your behalf!" I could feel eyes rolling. Chastity had it exactly right: she was trying to be down with the POC and she pushed it so hard that that she came across as yet another white person who loves to talk about how anti-racist they are to the point where they're actually drowning out the people they should be listening to. It starts out with her performative wokeness at the beginning when she's sitting around and talking with the other designers. Here's my analysis of the whole Meg situation: I am so happy to see your post! I just watched it and assumed that this would be a dead thread, and I want to talk about it so badly. Tulsa I surely hope she moved the fuck away! So happy to finally be able to say BYE BITCH!!!! GIRL, MOVE ON!! Hope you are in a fuckin shack wearing a frickin bean sack, crying, boofrickinwho! Ugh ! Shame on Project Runway for even allowing that bitch to even take an opportunity for a real designer to have a chance.

She was just an ass! And a big fuckin ass!! She never wanted to be there and she just made everyone feel less then who they are! Ugh! No excuses! She made it look like she was doing this out of the goodness of her heart. There are so many words to describe this less than human person. Please, for the love of fashion, tell me this woman (I use that term losly), I prefer to say, completely insensitive, no understanding of diversity, culture.etc. Now, the 3rd time NOPE, just a plain ass. Maybe just a little sensitivity training, I thought. Wtf The first time and second time, I kept trying to give Meg the benefit of the doudt.
