She cited the videos’ fictional nature and said Pratt’s social media has shifted toward violence. Bass pointed to imagery such as her being portrayed as villains like The Joker and Darth Vader, and scenes involving tomatoes that resemble blood, as well as drowning imagery. She also referenced other violent depictions, including Batman-themed rescue scenes during a burning city. Bass warned that hateful or demonizing messages can provoke unstable individuals and create risks to people’s safety.
