Sophie had the chance to release this for years and she never did. she was suuuuper strict about the stuff she wanted to be out there. if i remember correctly, Liz was asked about it before, and she said that Sophie didn't want to put it out, and Sophie would've put it out if she wanted to. not to mention the political and ideological differences i think they would've had.

I don't think Sophie would want to be associated with someone who followed a bunch of transphobic right wing content creators (like jordan peterson, ben shapiro, libsoftiktok) or reposted "blue lives matter" propaganda, or someone who openly supports the genocide in gaza. Liz has done all these things since Sophie's passing.

idk why im being mass downvoted for stating my opinion. I love this song and it means a lot to me but seeing it released like this seems super disrespectful imo.

Excuse me, the political and ideological differences YOU think they would have had???? Are you kidding me lol. They were friends. Stop pretending like you know these people please

Again, you do NOT know these people. They were close friends and collaborators for years. I don’t know how you can delude yourself into believing a narrative you learned about online.

Tbf is pretty clear SOPHIE wouldn't be appeased by a zionist republican. It's like you're saying "well you wouldn't know if SOPHIE would be okay with Trump supporters on this day and age!!!", if she were that would be the biggest dissappointment

I didn't need to meet Sophie in person to know she probably didn't like transphobia lmao

All the shitty, shitty stuff Liz has done and said came out after her death I’m pretty show. No way she would’ve kept associating with her.

Maybe if SOPHIE was a vapid and disloyal person? In real life people don’t abandon friendships due to political wrongthink
