I know that I shouldn’t be surprised, but I am.

Why would anyone be surprised or confused by Kanye? Dude has been a shithead for the longest while. Wish TheRoot would stop promoting and reporting on the jackass!!

I hope Eilish doesn’t apologize, Coachella stands by Eilish, Kanye flounces on Coachella, nobody cares that he isn’t there, and Kanye finds out where he really stands with audiences in 2022.

Yep. Fuck him. I’m sure his “I’m RICH, BIATCH” shtick will be ably supported by the fucking Larry the Cable Guy set.

In case you were wondering if Dave Chappelle has gone full asshole, yeah, he’s apparently willing to pull all his investments out of a town if poor people move there.

She shouldn’t have to apologize for getting work. I say this as a darker skinned Black man, we need to stop acting like this. Really. Stop thinking that we’re the only manifestation of Black. We aren’t.

For what it’s worth, Thandiwe Newton studied at Cambridge for her anthropology degree and has been having her part of this conversation through various interviews over many years now. I haven’t been following closely enough to endorse anything she’s said, but it does seem like there’s a lot of context that is being…

Westworld star Thandiwe Newton is apologizing to darker-skinned actresses for the role her light skin has played in advancing her career, often at the expose of their own. (Yes, you read that sentence correctly. Read it again if you have to, then keep on because I’m just getting started.)

I agree with the students. This is a continued effort to “whitewash” or reframe history to minimize the intensity of racism towards Black Americans. It’s a convenient retelling of a story that diminishes the role of bad actors that are still beloved. History influences beliefs and the actions we take in the present. 

“I’m with Kanye.”

And they’ll grow up rich, spoiled, and abusing poor people.

I hate the fact that these two reproduced.

He’s a doofus who shouldn’t be allowed to influence any kid until he’s back on his meds.

Probably never. Child rapist R Kelly stayed out of jail for decades because people were still pumping his music.

One has an upcoming docuseries on Netflix and the other has a new upcoming series on Huku. This villian/martyr storyline is annoying. Fuck boffem.

Two terrible attention whores who made all of their money being such, fighting in public because they want more attention putting each other on blast and ensuring that the kids will be even more fucked up then they are. Joy.

Literally everyone in the world has an accent. These complaints are stupid, and they demean the complainers.

There’s a Korean guy on Instagram who lives in Queens who reviews Asian spots “for the culture”. He has a NYC accent. It’s not a caricature. If you go to school in a majority minority school or live in a minority neighborhood, you’re going to sound like the Hispanic and Black people who live there. If you don’t, it’s…

I’ve binged her show and seen her in several movies and never heard her sound “black”.

Well this seems like a waste of energy that accomplishes nothing.
