She doesn’t actually believe the hate comes from an anti-feminist place - she wrote the post in an entirely calculated way.
She clearly thought: 1. Picture of her as a child and 2. The sort of not-really-saying-anything-but-using-the-right-words caption which is easy for dim people to engage with, would garner sympathy. She then thought adding the lazy, feminist layer on top would put her beyond reproach.
She uses these issues for her own gain. Imagine being a sustainability influencer for over half a decade and having nothing more than
to comment on Venetia’s protest post. She doesn’t have the understanding to make a substantive comment, and she wouldn’t want to anyway because she doesn’t actually care.
Niomi is the sort of person who, in primary school, would watch bullying/ injustice happen and do nothing in case she got into trouble with teachers. She wouldn’t stand up for anyone or anything if it didn’t benefit her.
Edited to add a final thought: I think Joe is the sort of person who would stand up for people (granted, it’s easier to be that person when you’re as privileged as Joe, I acknowledge that) and you could see her pretending to be that way when she was with him - but it was just too easy to see through.
