Lesbian fave Jodie Comer faces being CANCELLED for reportedly dating a Trump supporter
Cancel culture has struck again.
Angry Killing Eve fans have unleashed on actress Jodie Comer following unfounded reports the star is dating a man who aligns himself with the US Republican party and President Trump.
Comer, 26, whose character Villanelle from Killing Eve has become an icon among the queer community, has been labelled a “false activist and ally” in a number of tweets in light of rumours she’s linked to a Trump supporter.
The pile-on began on Wednesday, and was seemingly fuelled by unsubstantiated claims that Comer is in a relationship a man named James Burke who is said to support US President Donald Trump.
Comer, who won an Emmy for her chilling portrayal of Villanelle in 2019, is yet to respond.
The star has long remained tight-lipped on her private life.
In a vicious response to the whispers, Comer’s name began trending as fans called her recent support the Black Lives Matter “performative activism”.
One user wrote, “Jodie comer after posting the blm hashtag on her story once and recording a video for pride then going back to her republican boyfriend.“
Another added, “Jodie Comer dating a Trump supporter, while she’s portraying an LGBT character and reading poetry as an ‘ally’ is not only wrong but disgusting. Also her posts about BLM now look like performance activism.”

Good, Killing Eve is a terrible show. Something about it is so hammy. Nobody acts this way in real life.

This is online “queer” 20 year olds who probably rarely leave the house without being EXHAUSTED!! — thinking they can judge an adult woman’s dating choices (which are not to be with a serial killer, axe murderer or Nazi but a Republican... I wouldn’t vote Republican but it’s half of America) because she plays a lesbian or bisexual woman on TV. Pretty pathetic.
That’s even assuming Comer is dating the guy, it’s something the stans have decided through trawling through her social media footprint because they don’t have anything else to do.

So they ASSUME she is dating someone who they ASSUME is a republican. Yes, that seems like just reason to go after someone.
Also, if you're going to hound any celeb who doesn't post about BLM, it's your own fault if their support turns out to be superficial.
