Doja Cat, the renowned hip-hop artist, has found herself embroiled in controversy once again, this time for wearing a T-shirt featuring the image of a controversial comic, Sam Hyde.
The comic has been associated with the 'neo-Nazi' movement due to his past actions, including a donation of $5,000 to the neo-Nazi blogger Andrew Anglin and his website, The Daily Stormer, in June 2017.

Anglin was involved in a legal dispute with the Southern Poverty Law Center for targeting a Jewish woman.
Hyde has garnered a following comprising white nationalists, misogynists, and antisemites over the years. Doja Cat's decision to wear a shirt bearing his image has ignited outrage on social media.
This is not the first time Doja Cat has courted controversy. Her history includes clashes with her own fans on social media and the creation of satanic-themed music videos. Her provocative actions have often raised eyebrows.

Despite her past controversies, Doja Cat continues to maintain a substantial following. However, her recent display has prompted many of her followers to question their support.
Many social media comments suggest that Doja Cat may be intentionally seeking to be 'cancelled.'
Although Doja Cat removed the photos from her social media, screenshots quickly spread across the internet, intensifying the backlash.
As of now, the artist has not responded to the widespread criticism she has received. Additionally, she has been steadily losing followers since posting the controversial image.
Doja Cat's actions have once again ignited a debate about her choices and the impact they have on her public image and career.
