She has been, but I’m sure it’s frustrating for her to see that all these songs come out that are super damaging, and know that she still has to fight to sing how she’d like.

Also the idea of being EXCLUSIVELY hispanic isn’t a thing. It’s not a race, it’s a culture.

i’m not contesting that by any means, colorism is a thing, but you’ve got that Cardi B thing wrong.

“Cardi herself hasn’t claimed blackness until recently”

What?? Cardi literally has grown up visibly looking black, and has been black for her entire life... A lot of Afro-latino communities have a complicated relationship with being Afro-Latinos, but that doesn’t mean she somehow denied her blackness or claimed

Asking his hundreds of thousands of followers to call the cops on (now multiple) people is a threat to public safety.

(You can be abusive and have a mental illness)

Wow. I was also hopeful for a summer banger, but I don’t understand how you listen to that song and think “yeah, we’re with it, and this is a great song”

why do people keep sharing the ordinary products? the founder is literally telling people to fuck off on instagram... i get that they’re good and cheap, but why are we supporting people who abuse their customers and their employees (especially when they’re doing it so aggressively) ?

Oh hey! Cool to see you’re still posting on here after having lied about being a woman to back up your sexist argument!

she instigated this whole snake thing by making that dumb ass speech at the grammys.

for someone who claims to be close with kendrick and “listens” to rap cause she’s a “lowkey cool” becky, she seems to not accept that rappers in general (even female ones) refer to women as bitches in general.

You know there are light skinned black/mixed folx right? This isn’t a Rita Ora “she’s racially ambiguous” thing. Look at her sister, look at her. They are both black...

100%. It’s awful and really fucking disappointing that it’s just one big circle no one can get out of.

If someone can’t afford it, I’m not saying they should feel guilt or shame. I’m not where I was a year and a half ago making less than $23K, but I’m still not at a place where I can buy stuff like this. I get it, and by no means do I think that not being able to afford this somehow means that it goes with being less

Hey, sorry, I don’t mean that to you at all. I think that not everyone can afford “slow” fashion or ethical fashion is terrible or in the wrong. By no means is that what I’m saying.

What I am saying is that it’s frustrating that we’re blaming people who are trying to help the problem instead of pointing to things (like

A t-shirt has about 1.5 yards of fabric needed to make it.
Decent Quality Cotton Jersey (not necessarily ethically sourced) is ~$13.99/yard
Pattern making/Sewing Ethically (lets say 1 hour, though it’s probably a good deal more with neck/arm bands, hems, cutting, etc)- $15 for one hour

Just for materials and labor it’s

Yes, but lets not welcome them until they’ve actually made moves... not just when they say they’re gonna try to make moves.

This is how I feel. It’s a nice gesture, but I’m not really counting on anything until I see genuine change and understanding.

I had a bully in elementary school who gave me a reprieve when my grandmother died. Was that a nice thing to do? Yes. Did that make up for all of their abusive actions? No.

a friend of mine knows her in person and says shes SUCH A MESS.

I love how I knew this was Chromat before opening it.

I’m not mad either, I just think it’s especially hilarious when someone who actively contributes to the toxic environment acts like they’re above it all and faultless, which you’ve done many times. Anyway, that’s all I have on that ✌️✌️
