The article explores the complexities of the MomTok community, where the ideal of 'women supporting women' is challenged by drama arising from social media dynamics. The situation escalates when Taylor, feeling slighted over a lack of support for her CMA achievement, highlights tension among her peers. Demi, who criticizes Taylor for her behavior, questions her role within MomTok, suggesting that her actions may undermine collective support. This incident reflects the conflict between fostering supportive online spaces and the competitive nature of social media, leading to a deeper discourse on authenticity versus engagement.
"What happens when MomTok exists in a world where supporting the collective can also mean stirring up some supremely stupid drama in order to give everyone a boost in followers?"
"Taylor went to the CMAs. She got to present an award and was real jazzed about it. Naturally, she posted this to the grid and then, not a single one of the MomTok girlies commented."
"Demi counters that Taylor hides behind her page being mostly satire and it's bullshit. She insists that Taylor is a liability to MomTok."
"Taylor points out that it wasn't normal that none of them posted anything on her big accomplishment, citing the fact that this is their job."
