Demi Lovato is one ate-up wokester

 Man, she takes the whiny-victim thing to entirely new levels.

She can't deal with a yogurt shop offering sugar-free items:

Popstar Demi Lovato took aim at a small frozen yogurt shop for daring to offer sugar-free options to its customers. 

In an Instagram story post, Lovato attacked The Bigg Chill Frozen Yogurt shop in Los Angeles, California, for being alleged “diet vultures.” The store is known for its wide variety of low-fat, sugar-free frozen yogurts and treats. Lovato claims it was “triggering” for her to walk past the sugar-free cookies. 

“Finding it extremely hard to order froyo from [The Bigg Chill Frozen Yogurt] when you have to walk past tons of sugar free cookies/other diet foods before you get to the counter,” Lovato said. “Do better please. #DietCultureVultures.” 

The frozen yogurt vendor responded to Lovato’s story arguing that they are not diet vultures, they are merely serving the needs of customers who prefer sugar-free alternatives. The pop star posted the conversation to her Instagram story. 

“We are not diet vultures,” a spokesperson for The Bigg Chill Frozen Yogurt said. “We cater to all of our customers’ needs for the past 36 years. We are sorry you found this offensive.” 

She claims that offering these low-carb products "harms people with eating disorders." Um, isn't it upon such people to avoid The Bigg Chill?

She claims that in Los Angeles, "It's really hard to distinguish diet culture vs. health needs." I think she's spending way too much time inside her own head. If there is a "diet culture" problem in LA, maybe the underlying narcissism that's been rampant in that town for over a century is something to look at.

But her preoccupations go beyond yogurt shops. She's into distorting the basic design of human sexuality as far as she can:

Lovato has made headlines in recent weeks following the release of her new YouTube documentary. In an effort to promote her documentary, the pop star went on the Drew Barrymore show where she claimed that she cut her hair short to protest gender and sexuality norms in the Christian South. On the Joe Rogan podcast, Lovato announced that she is now “sexually fluid” and “pansexual,” meaning that she is attracted to “anything, really.” 

I've caught snippets of that syndicated morning show Drew Barrymore hosts when I'm at the gym, albeit with the sound turned down. At first, my thought was that Barrymore had found a nice little niche, where her perkiness could be displayed in endearing ways. I knew it had a girly-girl vibe, but that's morning television. But then I started seeing guests like Chelsea Handler and I thought, oh, for cryin' out loud, another lefty production.

Perfect for Lovato to indulge her bizarre brand of virtue signaling.
