Teen Mom Mackenzie McKee claps back at troll who called her ‘racist’ during star’s feud with Cheyenne Floyd
TEEN Mom Mackenzie McKee clapped back at a troll who called her "racist" during the star's feud with Cheyenne Floyd.
This was certainly not the first time that the mom of three has been dubbed as "racist" as last year she was slammed for using a politically incorrect word for black people.
As showed off her flexibility while doing yoga at the beach, a troll thought it would be fun to stamp the word "racist" on her comment section.
The 26-year-old quickly clapped back at the troll and said: "If you think that then why are you following me and spending time out of your day on my page?
"It's reasons like YOU we all can't grow up and move forward.
"Also actually I don't HAVE to like her. That's the beauty of life."
Fans will know that Mackenzie and Cheyenne haven't gotten along after the fit mom called Vice-President a "colored woman."
A few days ago, Mackenzie took to her Instagram Stories to claim that .
"If we write people off, cut them out and continue with this cancel culture that's not leaving room for growth," the mother-of-three told the camera.
She continued: "And if we're not leaving room for growth, we can't unite and come together.
"You guys are all chanting every day 'love', 'choose love', 'let's have peace' - we can't do that if we don't leave room for growth."
During last week's episode of , Mackenzie spoke with a social rights activist from Color Of Change to educate herself more on her racially insensitive comments.
She was asked: “What are some of the things you feel like you’ve learned since you said that?”
Mackenzie replied: “My privilege. I used to say ‘how am I privileged I’ve been through hard things too.’
“But I realized I never had it hard because of my skin color."
In January, Mackenzie made the questionable comment about the Vice President.
The mom wrote on her Facebook page: "Sorry, no. There are a lot of amazing women in the world for my daughters to look up to and see as role models. Kamala Harris is not one of them.
"It blows my mind that out of all the amazing colored women in this world, that is the one who is making history.”
While Teen Mom viewers ripped Mackenzie for the comment, her co-star , 28, turned to Twitter to encourage her followers to “educate.”
She tweeted: “It’s time to have a conversation, a form, something to educate and enlighten because the ignorance is pervasive.”
Earlier this week, Mackenzie for "cutting off" contact with her after her comment.
She said in a since-deleted Instagram Live: "Cheyenne tweeted that I’m ignorant. I would’ve gone live with her, I would’ve gone on her podcast.
"I talked to Cheyenne, and I thought things were going to be amazing, but it was just a downward spiral from there."
"I’m still confused why I can’t get on and stay sorry from my heart. We need to get rid of racism and racial injustice, but I’m not racist. Cancel culture is too big, we’re canceling people left and right... But if she wants to hate me, she can. I said something ignorant."
The Oklahoma native then said of her co-star: “I told Cheyenne, ‘I love you.’
";And her message back was ‘I have no sympathy for you. Welcome to day 1 of being uncomfortable because of the color of your skin.’"
Mackenzie added: “So if she hates me, that’s fine. That’s fine because I said something ignorant, but I messaged and told her that I love her.
