Doritos has fired a transgender activist who appeared in one of its promotional videos after being alerted to her sickening old tweets, including one where she wrote about doing 'depraved things' to a 12-year-old.
Samantha Hudson, 24, appeared in a new partnership with Doritos Spain through a 50-second video called 'Crunch Talks that has now been deleted from the brand's Instagram.
Doritos told Rolling Stone on Tuesday it would no longer work with Hudson, saying it had been unaware of her previous inappropriate posts.
The decision follows massive backlash on social media, as users posted grabs of Hudson's previous comments.
Born Iván González Ranedo, Hudson has identified herself as 'anti-capitalist' and 'Marxist' in interviews, and claimed in one video to be for 'the abolition of [and to] destroy and annihilate the traditional monogamous nuclear family.' As a teen, she has also tweeted about wanting to do 'depraved things' to a minor.
Many social media users posted a screenshot of a tweet Hudson made in 2015, when she was 15, writing in Spanish about the seeming assault of a minor.
The post in question read: 'I want to do thuggish things to get into a 12-year-old girl's [expletive].'
Another post translates to: 'In the middle of the street in Mallorca in panties and screaming that I'm a nymphomaniac in front of a super beautiful 8-year-old girl.'
In another post, Hudson wrote: 'I hate women who are victims of sexual assault and go to self help centers to overcome their trauma. Annoying sl**s.'
Hudson apologized for the tweets after they resurfaced, saying they 'were pure provocation and in very bad taste.'
She said: 'At that time I dedicated myself to saying nonsense, the heavier the better, because I thought that 'dark humor' was funny.'

“AB InBev lost A BILLION DOLLARS because of that dope Mulvaney and their loose lipped dopey dame of a “marketing exec”.”
They lost more than that, they lost their number 1 spot to Modelo Especial after 21 years at being at the top.
There is no going back from this. Even Super Bowl sales were down and they lost out to Corona.
No I didn’t see that where?
What is with these companies? Hiring a trans “ambassador” to push your brand is akin to walking around with a Kick-Me-Hard sign.
I had to look up Samantha Hudson this afternoon because I wasn’t even aware of who this person was. Talk about ugly and unattractive. She makes Dylan Mulvaney look like a Miss America candidate.
Hiring mentally ill people is a bad idea.
Who knew?
Doritos whines “We had no idea a pervert would have actually, you know, talked about perverted things.”
>’I hate women who are victims of sexual assault and go to self help centers to overcome their trauma.”<
Shhe or heshe must be one of those who make sexual assault victims.
I personally can’t believe Doritos did not know about this guy.
They knew. He is too well known in Spain. If the fans knew, Doritos knew. They just hoped it would not get out.
That is exactly what HE is.
Once upon a time companies vetted people before bringing them onboard.
These days it’s all about virtue signalling and appearances of “inclusivity”.
As for now, Doritos made the right move in firing this individual after his horrific history was exposed.
Consider this: If a company makes a dumb move like this, and we demand a course correction, and the company obliges, what message do we send by punishing them all the same, just as harshly? Would they not make the calculation that they’re irredeemable and thus fully entrench to the left anyway, and perhaps do even worse things? That’s what the left tries to do to us.
A better approach is “carrot and stick.” Doritos fired the guy and thus gets the carrot for now. To be sure they’re on probation. I would love to see a promise to “do better” and never make a hiring decision like this again. Furthermore, whoever made this hire needs to be shown the door.
If, in the future, Doritos slips again, then comes the stick, with which they should be beaten mercilessly (aka, Bud Lighted).
of course they knew, well SOMEONE knew...
I’m with you. If Doritos quits the performative leftism I want to support that return to sanity. Some Cool Ranch would be nice right now.

The fact that they got out in front of it and took decisive action may minimize the damage. A/B doubled down and are still feeling the effects.
CC
AND boycott them for calling this degenerate “her” and “she.”
Companies need to pull back from pushing ANY kind of kink. Dorito could easily have been Bud Lighted - - if they hadn't moved as fast as they did and dumped the pervert.
The IQs of business people and politicians seem to have dropped by about 50 points.
Buh bye, Frito Lay brands. Every last one of them
Doritos is part of Pepsi. Pepsi has been leftist for a long long time. I’ve done my best to avoid their stuff as well. The junk food stuff is easy but Pepsi owns a lot of brands world wide much like InBev does.
