Skye Wheatley cries and screams at ‘disgusting white c**ts’ for criticising Black Lives Matter post

Skye Wheatley cried and screamed at fans for criticising her well-intentioned Instagram post promoting the Black Lives Matter movement on Tuesday. 

The Gold Coast influencer, 26, faced a backlash after sharing a video lip-syncing to Macklemore song Same Love while holding a ‘PLEASE BE KIND #BLM’ sign up.

After being called ‘tone deaf’ and accused of ‘not understanding’ the civil rights movement, Skye ranted for five minutes that it’s only ‘disgusting white c**ts’ that were upset with her post, before sobbing: ‘I don’t want to cry, I’m not a victim’.

Skye screamed, swore, cried as she ranted to her 620,000 Instagram followers. 

‘I’m so f**king sick of keeping my mouth shut and not saying what I want to say, and constantly living in fear of things that I do say on my platform. With everything going on right now, it honestly just makes me feel so f**king sick that people are being so f**king nasty to other people,’ Skye began, as she faced a minor backlash. 

‘We’re all coming together as one to spread awareness, educate ourselves and try to share this one huge message. We need to respect the human race no matter what f**king colour you are, race you are or how you’ve been raised. 

‘The f**king message is f**king treat people with love, kindness and respect. What the f**k are we not getting about this? I’m literally so mad that I still continue to see hateful, abusive and bullying messages.’

The mum-of-one accused the people of criticising her of being ‘hypocrites’ 

She said they’re sending her ‘abusive’ comments while also preaching for people to go and educate themselves about the Black Lives Matter movement, in the wake of the alleged murder of George Floyd at the hands of a white cop in the U.S. 

‘It doesn’t matter how the f**k I express my compassion for the BLM movement. It matters that I’m f**king voicing it and bringing attention to it like the rest of the world,’ Skye continued, before claiming it is only white people criticising her. 

‘You know what, not one POC [person of colour] has come for me, it’s all been little white c**ts. Yeah, I said it. I said c**t because that’s all these people are. Bullying, little, foul mouthed, disgusting, low-life c**ts,’ an emotional Skye raged.

‘What are your f**king little stupid bullying comments going to do to help the movement? Absolutely f**k all, sweet heart.’

She then discussed how influencers face backlash if they stay silent on the movement, and also face backlash for how they show their support. 

‘I’m so mentally f**ked because I can’t do anything, not even for myself. Like, I can’t post something that I feel compassionate about because I get told that “I’m not educated” and that “I don’t actually care”. And If I don’t post anything, I get attacked because I’m being silent and [accused of] not giving a f**k about black lives.’

The former Big Brother star went on to apologise for her emotional outburst.

‘I really do feel so selfish right now. I’ve had to deflect from what’s really going on to address another situation that I feel strongly and passionate about,’ she added.

‘I’ve lost the plot. Instagram has pushed me to the edge this year. It’s so mentally draining and I’m shaking every morning in fear of checking my socials.’
