Candace Owens is a controversial figure, to say the least. The right-wing darling has garnered headlines in recent years for declaring that racism doesn’t exist and also developing a close friendship with Kanye West. However, she has also defended Megan Thee Stallion and praised Rihanna’s Super Bowl performance.
Owens has made a very successful living from being outspoken, especially within right-wing circles. Her estimated net worth is in the millions, and it’s clear she enjoys a lavish lifestyle with her husband. George Farmer is the CEO of the conservative messaging app Parler and a right-wing darling in his own right. However, for someone who makes her living bashing “snowflakes,”, it seems that Owens is not so adept at fielding criticism herself.
David Netto Slams Owens and Farmer
According to the Daily Mail, Owens and Farmer were making inquiries about the renovation of their home in Nashville. According to Owens, one of the inquiries was to David Netto. Netto, a well-regarded interior described by Architectural Digest as a “true designer’s designer”, is known for his stylish, upmarket designs. His work can be found in luxury homes and apartments across the US. He is also something an interior design rebel, having dropped out of Harvard to found his own studio in 2000. Per his website bio, Netto’s work is “known for trying to bring to modernism a touch of warmth and personality, and to traditionalism young energy and a dash of the exotic.”
Owens claims that her husband sent a “very polite” inquiry to email. Unfortunately, it appears Netto was apparently well aware of the couple’s reputation
“Dear George, thank you for your inquiry. I’d rather be hit in the ass with a wooden plank than ever go near either of you. Kind regards, David”

Owens has publicly stated that she does not believe racism exists. Furthermore, her husband, who Netto corresponded with, is white. Despite these facts, Owens made very specific claims while voicing her disapproval. Owens argued that Netto would likely not have spoken the same way to a Black liberal. That claim cannot be substantial but what we do know is Owens and Farmer will have to look elsewhere for the renovation needs.
