Leah bashed Michael for releasing the texts that “blew up her spot” and she got dragged on social media for lying:

Imagine if there weren’t texts and people took Leah’s word for it. Ain’t that like history for white women to lie about shit black men did?

I just have a problem w/ her attitude of being ENTITLED to this man’s interest. So he’s not that into you. AND? He doesn’t owe you interest.

This Michael Che/Leah McWhoever situation is OBJ/Lena Dunham pt. 2. If a black man refuses to feed the white girls thirst, he’s a bad guy. pic.twitter.com/z4C5Gi7EAO

Leah McSweeney was damn near begging Michael Che for a reaction and he was like no I’m cool.

People pointed out how dangerous a crazy White woman like Leah is to Black men, saying she’s the type to yell rape when you don’t call her back. Others compared her to Lena Dunham, the White actress who posted that Black NFL player Odell Beckham, Jr. made her feel uncomfortable because he wouldn’t flirt with her at the Met Gala. Journalist Damon Young says Leah’s feelings were hurt, because like most White women, they expect Black men to be drooling over them:
There are certain types of White women who assume that all Black men want to fuck them. That if they give a brotha a hint of a whiff of their Coochie Cocoa Puffs, we’ll turn into feckless and slobbering cuckoo birds. This mindset is a messy culmination of several centuries worth of entitlement and socialization and privilege and Pornhub memberships, and there’s nothing I’ve heard or read about Leah McSweeney — including the back and forth she had yesterday with Luvvie — to counter the evidence that she’s definitely one of these women.
And when women like this are told no, they get dangerous. The no is such a blow to their egos and their sense of self that they’ll do anything to change the narrative. Including, of course, become so upset about a soft rejection that no one would have ever known or cared about that they concoct an elaborate story about a person’s character.
Leah’s still being dragged by White men and Black journalists alike.
