BACHELOR'S TAYLOR NOLAN WINS 'WORST APOLOGY OF 2021' AWARD

Yes I was thinking that. I have yet to delete tweets before I become licensed next year in a different "good character" field but after today I am deactivating until I do. I know I said alot of dumb things. I will screenshot them and ask someone to send them to my licensing board if I ever get as preachy as this "queen"

[@shayb413]

That was EXACTLY my thought!! I said in my comment, if she had been my therapist and I had trusted her, I would have to literally go throw up reading all those horrible, hateful comments! As a mental health professional especially, she should understand everyones inherent worth, and that it comes from WITHIN. I am beyond shocked at her superiority complex and her playing the victim, and just the hypocrisy!! I'm so glad to see you and so many other Mental Health professionals commenting on this here and denouncing it, and saying how damaging this could be to those people who trusted her with their vulnerability and their treatment! Thanks for this great point of view!

@Steph I agreed with your first post as she’s such a hypocrite and trying to cancel Chris Harrison. At least Chris Harrison was sincere at his apologies but Taylor is just very defensive. And she was very derogatory and mean Chris Harrison was just trying to have a little bit of grace for the contestant who clearly made a mistake who is also half Latina.

[@esmallz]

As someone who also is in the mental health field I am shocked she would use the R word that frequently and flippantly. Even a first year psych student would know better than to use the R word. I cannot even begin to process the awful things she wrote. This racism, fat phobia, etc. is not appropriate in anyone much less a mental health professional. Ugh so disgusting.

Addressing only BIPOC and not the rest of the communities she hurt makes it seem like she was still trying to hide the other wrongs she did.

[@tochiekwueme4577]

I'm so appalled by these tweets. It's extremely disturbing and sickening. Absolutely disgusting that someone would think this is ok to say( regardless of the age). Her pathetic apology just made it worse. Maybe she should take some lessons from Rachel kirconell on how to make an ACTUAL apology. She needs to be held accountable!!! And she needs to apologize to every single community that she targeted. She's lost all respect from me, not because of her actions in the past but because of her present actions aka her pathetic apology.

[@alfonsogayman9699]

I like Rachaels video apology but I disagree that Taylor should take cues from her. I believe Rachael’s PR team did an amazing job with her statement and coaching her. Had she apologized sooner than 6 weeks after all this came to light id be more willing to believe her sincerity. Add in the fact that Matt has since broken up with her leads me to believe her doing the work was more performative and less substantive but time will tell. I just wish the producers would actually Vet their contestants or hire the Reddit ppl to do so for them.

I think she has many anger issues, and really doesn’t deserve a have a public platform. Taylor has shown hypocrisy and irony at its best. Best thing would be to take herself off social media to try and be a better human being, before preaching and calling out others. 😕

Bekah also defended Victoria F. for that "White lives matter" scandal, and more recently when an audio-clip of Matt and Tyler body-shaming Victoria got out, she literally glossed over it: "we all have asshole friends and don't speak up, whenever they make racist comments or insult people."

[@LexiByler]

1. I need "Very Interesting Stuff Here" on a merch shirt ASAP! 2. My thoughts: Taylor's tweets are disgusting, prejudice, ableist, homophobic, colorist, etc. just terribly wrong. I can understand why she was feeling angry and defensive BUT she went about this situation completely wrong and centered herself as the victim in a situation where she is not. While I agree that people should be quick to speak up, you should balance that with not hurrying what you want to say, because that almost never goes well. With Rachael, 6+ weeks was too long. For Taylor, speaking up right away was too fast. There is an in-between that can exist. But in some ways, this is also irrelevant because what she truly should've done is pull a Jenna Marbles and be proactive in discussing the views she once held and discuss the work she's done to become a good ally. Too late for that now. She was angry because there are a significant number of people who are calling her out not because they care about the communities that were harmed by her tweets/rhetoric, not because they want the world to be anti-racist, anti-ableist, anti-homophobic, etc. but because they wanted to drag her down. That IS wrong. But as soon as these tweets were made widely public, it very quickly stopped being about those people and immediately was about the people she harmed. It's cringy how hypocritical her apology was, as someone who has rightfully been so critical of others, she very quickly was unable to be as critical of herself. She led with anger, she led with defensiveness, when all she needed to do was be apologetic to the communities she has hurt. To answer your question about centering her whiteness: Taylor is biracial (Black/White) and from what I've gathered, I think she grew up in predominately white spaces and carried anti-Black, self-hatred which resulted in her being conditioned to acting more "white." There is an issue with Black and/or White rejection for biracial people (a whole other topic) but this can manifest anti-Black racism in someone who is part-Black. Taylor needs to humble herself. It's great that she's done a lot of work in the last 10 years to become a better ally, but the ego unleashed in her apology video is something that will take time to dismantle.

[@DaveNealComedian]

Thank you so much for this. I appreciate how you explained it all! Will be talking about this ‘centering’ more since I didn’t really understand it myself.

Just being on social is performative and the instant/impulsive denouncing of every transgression takes away from the gravitas of social justice and activism. Unpopular opinion: We are all racist, prejudice and hold some kind of priveledge. Am I surprised by Taylor's tweets nope but I am disappointed. People in glass houses shouldn't throw stones.

[@ForeverFalling153]

I agree with you...we are all (even us minority people) prejudiced in some way and should look at and work on our own prejudices and be open to understanding and forgiving people for their transgressions and to also appreciate theirs and our own efforts at growth. We all need to do the work and keep looking within for where we can improve and externally to also see where and how we can help make our world better and more just. I am a Native American who grew up on a reservation and went on to earn degrees as Taylor has and then work in a profession as she is doing. It is very difficult for some of us to get there. So, it is important to not tread lightly on people's careers. I believe Taylor has and needs to continue to look within, work on herself and ask forgiveness for past and current transgressions. None of us is perfect. Her messages sounded like she was not in a good place years ago and she is getting better. My suggestion is that we support her in that and encourage her to do so. And, as a Native American elder (lol - for real) I want to encourage anyone else bothering to read this to please take the time and make the effort to learn more about our actual history in this country to gain more of an appreciation for the impact that history has had on minorities and, if in a position in which you can have an impact, also try to change the parts of our system that continue to hold people back from being all they can be and having all they should have. We will all be better off.

Thanks! Apartment tour soon-ish! Gonna take a while to unbox ;)

[@shircas01]

Thank 👏🏾you👏🏾for👏🏾covering👏🏾this👏🏾

[@leora8278]

Congrats on the new place! I can't believe she's a therapist. I wouldn't trust someone making rape jokes, being fatphobic and racist, and publicly saying mentally ill people should commit suicide to be helpful and non-judgmental as a therapist. I kind of hope her clients find someone better suited to the job. Her apologies were horrible and really didn't address all the people she insulted. She's also apparently talked about/insulted clients on social media.

[@nikkirass8072]

Hahaha! I love that you know when everything happens in BachNation

[@DaveNealComedian]

haha i get dm's now, hundreds! people alert me,lol

[@readwithtalia]

I clicked this video so fast.

[@DaveNealComedian]

Thanks, I legit was NONSTOP yesterday with no internet so couldn’t make this video sooner, honestly didn’t get through 20% of what I wanted to say so more to come...

[@readwithtalia]

@@DaveNealComedian haha no worries you do an awesome job! I even told my boyfriend yesterday that you were moving so you wouldn’t be able to post a lot of videos and he was like how do you know that?! Haha I watch all your videos.

[@mcgeek4781]

I’m so glad I didn’t grow up with social media. It’s given people a platform to voice every stupid thought that runs though their mind. Then it’s always out there in the ether. Teenage to early 20s (aka emotional idiots) are particularly at risk 🙄

[@gabrileae]

Loving your take on this, Dave!

[@DaveNealComedian]

thanks, im equally shocked at Taylor's tweets while also rolling my eyes at the people that release their statements condoning it lol.

[@gabrileae]

@@DaveNealComedian I look forward to your upcoming videos. Curious about the voicemails too ... But also: I hope you also get to have a good time settling into your new place!

[@katrina48]

As to the rush to denounce, it seems like silence equals complicity in this world. The Sean Lowe example shows this.

[@DaveNealComedian]

Ya and I disagree, we should know the difference between silence equaling complicity versus The Sean Lowe example. We should know the difference.

[@katrina48]

@@DaveNealComedian, definitely. I'm not saying it's right, but in the current atmosphere, that's what's assumed (silence = complicity.) That's why people were flooding Sean's social to demand a response.

[@s.m6605]

This has nothing to do with Sean, he an his family need to be left out of it. If it wasn’t his experience he has nothing to speak on, it doesn’t mean he is complicit either.

[@katrina48]

@@s.m6605 , I agree. Dave was talking about how Sean Lowe got bombed on social media because he didn't post a response to the Chris Harrison interview with Rachel Lindsay, and how now all of 'official' Bachelor Nation feels they have to post on any controversy that comes up. I have no opinion on whether Sean L. should or shouldn't comment.

[@camno-n2x]

Can we just please cancel the whole franchise??? I feel the end days are coming.. just so much toxicity coming from this franchise.

[@tochiekwueme4577]

Congratulations on your new place Dave and Tasha 🥰❤🥳

[@thatw3irdcatgirl]

whats sad is the number of groups she offended... like i can count at least five

[@kasodonnell]

Why is this only coming out now and not before or during the season she appeared on? 🤔 I'm confused...

[@mayrasanchez7972]

You said it. She’s resentful. It’s sad but true.I think she has gone through something hard that hasn’t been able to let go..

[@nomadchica]

@Mayra Sanchez This is exactly what I’ve always thought! She seems to have so much pent-up hostility, and she seems to have no self-awareness about it. I’ve always wondered what happened to her to cause her to be this way.

[@mayrasanchez7972]

@@nomadchica she’s been like that (low key of course) since the bachelor aired. At Nicks season. She always had the feeling of superiority, “the Im better than you” type of girl. Her ways of saying stuff too. She’s been very vocal and angry to CH. Something fishy is there too.. Anyways, hope she learns from it and move on.

[@nomadchica]

@@mayrasanchez7972 I know, she’s been like that from the get go. And then covers it up with veil of being well educated, which comes across as an air of superiority and very condescending. I hope that all of what’s happening now is a catalyst for her to to seek help, so that she can heal from whatever harm it was that she experienced so deeply. :-)

[@dmcsweetsbyleighanne]

Goooooddddd grief!!!!! I thought maybe she would have one or two but dang.... this is mind blowing!!! What a freaking hypocrite!!!!

[@jessm89]

I can't yet speak on these tweets. I have a nephew with special needs, and I just can't. I feel like Lori the PR woman. Anyway, congrats on the move!!

[@DaveNealComedian]

aw im sorry that these hit close to home. What I've been described about children with special needs, is that the true miracle is how much love and support special needs people give each other. Its almost like people drop their petty grievances and appreciate the simplicities of unconditional love.

[@jessm89]

@@DaveNealComedian Yes, that is absolutely true. He is definitely a love. ❤️

[@argguti]

Lol, she wrote, “when their drunk.” 😳🤣

[@walterbrown798]

Too bad that everybody who goes on The Bachelor gets their 15 minutes of fame ! Then these people show their real intentions ? It's time for The Bachelor to rest in peace permanently !

[@hillakatz5855]

"what tweets are sourced in good faith" LOL SO TRUE

[@DaveNealComedian]

Literally zero

[@jessicarae6879]

*When everyone starts to dislike the person you had a bad feeling about all along*

[@jyn88]

You make an excellent point @10:03. I noticed that myself and honestly quite annoying. Forcing everyone to speak on almost every single issue in the world. If you don't then now you're the one with the problem! Overwhelming and exhausting indeed. People have their own lives.

[@B4andafterbeauty12]

This is SO CraZy! Why is it the ones that preach the loudest end up being exposed as the worst?!

[@rebeccalucky3]

Bennett from Tayshia’s season was just the male version of who Taylor was on Nick’s season with all the emotional intelligence BS. Cannot stand either of them 🤢

[@Lion08888]

At least Bennett isn’t a narcissistic bigot who’s incapable of taking accountability (that we know of)

[@Victoria-xv7fc]

Yes! I knew he reminded me of someone

[@shauntoyaellison1]

Lmao I’m weak be careful who you come for , especially if yu got skeletons in your closet, Facebook police gone come for you , 😂

[@kristinepratt7558]

I often wonder what people could dig up on me when I was a dumb young person but wow... this isn't ignorance.. this is just awful 😯

[@DaveNealComedian]

Haha ya this is like committed work she put in

[@redbarnhomestead7384]

Wow, it is interesting that she was pro cancelling someone and now she is living that.

[@terrinegron]

Dave, I love the philosophy around your thoughts. All I can say is I agree. Thank you for your perspective.

[@KaitAC]

Yay! I've been looking forward to this!

[@Laurenjoinsyoutube]

It’s so weird to me that when a celebrity messes up their friends have to put out statements. 🤷🏾‍♀️

[@tylerandnicole2837]

As a half white/Asian person, it felt like she blamed and diverted her actions to her being part white. To me anyone can be a crappy/racist person and the “centering whiteness” was another excuse instead of just admitting what she as an individual did was wrong. I may be misinterpreting what she meant by that phrase, but it just doesn’t sit well with me.

[@Lion08888]

It really doesn’t. She’s shifting blame on to an entire group of people for her shitty behaviour

[@girlygirlyxoxo]

Oh there you are. Your absence was felt. Welcome back 😃

[@sigridmac09]

Hi Dave, thanks for your analysis. Right on the money. I'm a big fan of Married at First Sight and I think that the experts there have really failed to properly screen candidates in the last season or two. Same is true of The Bachelor as evidenced by these old tweets. Let's hope in the future that they screen social media feeds much more carefully. Nobody is perfect but who writes the kind of stuff that Taylor wrote? It's way overboard. I don't see how she can come back from this, especially with the lame apology, because she did not sound authentic at all with her remorse.

[@chronicallybriana]

And lastly, I love you Dave and I completely agree with you that it's strange and sad that so many people in BN feel the obligation to denounce or even address these things they had absolutely no involvement in! Great comparison about a coworker getting fired for sexual harassment, and I thought it was super commendable of Sean Lowe to address that it's ridiculous that people were coming after him after he didn't address the CH drama because he was ON VACATION! Even if he wasn't on vacation-- why is it such a crime to not log into social media for a few days? People drive me nuts.

[@mywingsletmefly5984]

Pure narssasist.. I also don't believe that bullies of this level can change 180 degrees ever. She is just defensive in her apology N still snobbish. Ps. I was waiting for your video on this all day yesterday🙊

[@alfonsogayman9699]

Dave you should do a video on Hannah B’s horrible statement after chris Harrison’s interview with Rachel Lindsay. She’s stated in the past she would do the work to become an ally to the black community but she was clearly being performative because she’s done absolutely nothing since saying the n word publicly. Her statement after Chris Harrison’s interview was pathetic at Best. I used to respect her but not anymore. A shame truly

[@Dan-fy3vp]

The honesty and "outsider" perspective you bring to this somewhat ridiculous franchise is what makes you funny and worth watching...You're clearly walking on egg shells at a few points in this video. I may be wrong, but to me it reads as you're worried that the same people giving you this platform will just as quickly turn on you for miss-speaking. Please don't pander to these jabronis...Your criticism of people crying "guilty by association unless you denounce!!" is completely well founded. Seems more and more like people are just desperately looking for "safer" more justified proxy outlets for any anger they themselves have. Does Taylor deserve hate? Idk. Do I dislike her. Yeah. What the hell's it accomplishing?

[@daixyray]

In 2012 she received her Suicide Prevention Gate Keeper Certificate as well as studying emotional intelligence and more in order to get her degree. Cant believe she's said these things
