Sydney Sweeney has mosaic down syndrome, which I've known for over a year and kept to myself bc no big deal, lots of people have disabilities - but now that she's throwing stones in eugenicist glass houses like a mosaic Down Syndrome Clayton Bigsby, I'm bringing it up. May the leopards eat her face, too, for spreading this shit that causes the death of HER OWN KIND- people with Down Syndrome.

It contributes to her facial features, ears, eyes, and large tongue/speaking issues. She even has the cleft in her tongue and the toe separation. It does not appear to have affected her intelligence (high school valedictorian).

Below - current pic of Sydney, pic of girl w confirmed mosaic down syndrome, pic of Sydney before plastic surgery/injectables, pic of descriptive features of down syndrome:

She looks more like that stranger than her own literal family.

I'm sorry, she's doing what? And how?

I'm so confused by this whole thing. She's in a jeans ad - what's the big deal? (I'm not from the US so I might be missing some important context)

From what I've gathered. She's white, blonde, and blue-eyed. The ad says, she has good "jeans" which, without the text, could be interpreted as "genes".

No, she literally goes on a lecture about how genes are passed down from parent to offspring, it is explicitly about genes.
