I see you're suggesting that she shouldn't be surprised that the fucked up culture in the fashion industry is fucked up since everyone knows it's fucked up. But what everyone else is trying to tell you is that we should still talk about how fucked up this is, because it's fucked up.

I think the point they’re trying to make is there are much worse things happening at a broader scale in the fashion industry than this one model being impacted by this event.

And we can also be angry about those. Not every news story has to be about the most important thing ever.
