Social media influencer Dylan Mulvaney has broken her silence after being bombarded by hateful rhetoric since partnering with Bud Light earlier this month.
The 26-year-old TikToker, who is transgender, responded to the backlash from right-wing, anti-transgender voices following a several-week break from social media.
“I’ve always tried to love everyone, even the people that make it really, really hard,” Mulvaney said. “It’s OK to be frustrated with someone, or confused, but what I’m struggling to understand is the need to dehumanize and be cruel. Dehumanization has never fixed anything in history, ever."
Mulvaney partnered with Bud Light as part of a March Madness contest on her Instagram account. The deal, which saw Mulvaney’s face printed on a limited edition signature blue can, sparked numerous calls from people who oppose the partnership to destroy beer stockpiles and potentially boycott the brand entirely.
