I'm not sure that makes you a bad feminist. Entourage is satire, to a certain extent.

If you're so worried about the purity of hip hop and Black Culture, you're doing the exact wrong thing. All this negative attention is nonetheless attention. You are part of the very problem that you're clutching your pearls so tightly about, by keeping her relevant in the cultural zeitgeist.
I can't make this clear enough, I can't stand Iggy, and I'm not defending her. I just think all this self-righteous indignation directed at her is insanely stupid.
I'm not defending her, I think she sucks. What I am doing is pointing out how silly it is for you to give SO MANY FUCKS about a no talent ass clown whose "transgressions" are totally insignificant.
I love how Samer's dad just used it as a forum to air his thoughts on the Patriots and Red Sox...
I'm saying get the stick out of your butt. If you want to go get self-righteous and go on a moral crusade, there are a nearly limitless number of better issues to do so on.
Yeah I get what you're saying, I've heard a lot worse from all people, people of color included, on the basketball courts of NYC. A lot of it is good-natured though, when you live in a society this diverse, it can actually be a way of diffusing the tension. The issue here I think is that she put this shit out on…
If we spent this much time and energy throwing shade at every public figure that was 'kinda racist', we would be here till eternity. That's my point, all this is just cover for a broader Mean Girl agenda against her.
I'm not excusing it. I just don't think it warrants this much of a vendetta by so many people. It just strikes me as people who have an ax to grind grasping at straws to justify their hatred of someone.
Ok guy, racism is binary. There are definitely no differences between tweeting some bad stereotype jokes and, let's say, lynching. No a lick of fucking difference.
Oh good, now we're talking about my privilege. This is fantastic, I asked Santa for a Red Herring for Christmas and it looks like it came early.
I'm not defending her character. But on the scale Zero to Donald Sterling, this is much closer to the former than the latter.
I really don't buy that as a legitimate issue. Despite the fact that she raps and, as AB would say, "rides black dick" she really has no obligation to 'black culture' or the black community. She's an artist (term used loosely) who was heavily influenced by black culture and has lots of black friends, would it be…
I've seen some of these, not all of them. I'm not sure they make her racist really though. A mean little bitch for sure with a tin ear for sure, but this strikes me more as her trying to play up her "character" of a southern rapper, which is to say, she's saying things not too dissimilar from what a lot of black…
Yeah agreed, I mean, she's said some shitty stuff on Twitter, that while not outrightly racist, definitely makes me question her character. But those things really don't warrant the level of attention she's been getting from Jezebel (working title: The 12 Days of Iggsmas). Particularly regarding her "silence" on…
Iggy Azalea is from Australia. When she gives interviews or generally moves about her life, she talks like an Australian, yet somehow when she raps, she sounds like an extra from ATL.
I really don't know what these allegedly racist things she said are, if I am missing something please point it out to me. Near as I can tell, most people hear are complaining about two things: 1. Co-opting of "black music" while having the audacity to be white and 2. not saying "the right things" about the…
Q-Tip. He frequently goes by just "Tip"
Does the A350 have some of the same passenger comfort niceties like the bigger windows, higher cabin pressure/humidity, etc as the 787?
Oh yes..... exactly what's needed here, a fucking Uncle Tom accusation. Nothing rounds out a conversation about Real Blackness, or whatever, better than people accusing black people who disagree with them on Black Shit of being a fucking Uncle Tom.
