Wow. Angry Minority Twitter. Thank you for demonstrating exactly why Patricia's speech is bullshit and all the women co-signing it are not and never have been working towards intersectional equality.

I must point out what Arquette said in the press conference after the show, something about how women need gay people and people of color "that we've all fought for to fight for us now."

Yeah, that's the part that didn't sit right with me. Like, I appreciate the overall sentiment of her statement, but that part got some serious side-eye from me, honestly.

we have fought for everybody else's equal rights.

I will say that i did not like the bit at the beginning where she said we have fought for everyone else's equal rights, i am sorry no we haven't and i feel like this always happens with white feminism.

Not being on any antidepressants and "dealing with your depression" may be a point of pride to you, and I respect that. However, for many people choosing to "deal with their depression" and avoid medication is a death sentence.

The problem with this is there's no real way to point out Kanye's hypocrisy towards Amber without pointing out that Kim is very much in the same boat. You can't say "I had to take 30 showers before Kim even got with me" without somebody using Kim's public sexual past to prove how silly you sound. She went with a crass…

I don't think Amber's doing that I think she's calling out how ridiculous it is that he would come at her for what she's done when it's very out in the open that Kim hasn't had the cleanest past herself. Maybe I'm wrong but that's how I'm seeing this.

She didn't want anyone messing with her little sis.... except for 25 year old men. Got it.

Nope. Amber verbally nailed Tyga to the wall, for leaving his wife and child for a child; she didn't say anything derogatory about Kylie. Khloe chose to react as if she had, and go on the attack.

I mean, I don't need him to come out in a bedazzled tuxedo (now that I've said it, yes, I do) but maybe look like you showered in the last week? It's not ruining my life or anything and obviously, he's doing just fine without my opinion but what else is the internet for but to pass judgement on people you don't know…

It also seems to reinforce the idea that whites are the default humans. When they say people, they mean white ones.

You may not like the music form, but you should at least respect it for the art that it is. And no, just hitting the right notes in the right order is not acceptable, be the song rock, soul, classic, or gospel. People are upset because the music of this genre is typical performed in a way that invokes emotion from the…

I wish Ledisi sang it. Not only does it make sense because she sang it in the movie, but Beyonce can't sing this style of music as well as Ledisi can. And I am also not into gospel, but I respect the vocal art form.

Not only Black churches sing gospel. There are different styles of gospel music.

Beck should have sung it.

This is v. eloquently written. Also, SHADE.

Thank You! Even my dumb atheist ass knows gospel songs need some church, some oomph, some gut punch. Beyonce had none.

According to John Legend, Beyoncé approached them to perform—aka Beyoncé suggested that Beyoncé sing the song—which is a proposition you can't turn down. "She wanted to do an intro to our performance and introduce us," says Legend. "You don't really say no to Beyoncé if she asks to perform with you."
