I think the difference is she's someone with a lot of cultural capital and a massive platform, not some rando just doing this stuff in private, or heck even just a mildly famous social media star. So when she endorses certain behaviors publicly, even if she's genuine in her endorsement, she will likely influence others to embrace those behaviors. Then the debate becomes if that's harmful or not.
It's been argued our hyper sexualized society is basically having the reverse effect of prudishness where now people are being pressured into being more sexual than they truly wish to be rather than less.
Now personally, I don't fully agree, at least not with Sabrina's work. Yeah she's horny but I don't think she's really advocating for anything truly harmful, nothing wrong with being a little slutty. But I at least understand the logic of her critics.
