QUASHING

As an Asian...

But...why did you buy into any of it in the first place?

This campaign was even better than her 2008 campaign which redefined what a campaign could be.

This was known during the primaries. Neither Trump nor Bernie would have been doing so well if such a large portion of the electorate wasn’t dying for change, yet so many people chose to ignore this...

People just don’t fucking like her because of HER. In 2008 nobody was talking about holding their noses and voting for Obama...if you have to do that you have a bad candidate and you might not want to run a bad candidate in a racist/sexist society cause you might lose to something worst.

The DNC needs to be retooled to encourage competition from the bottom up, closer to a farm system, that can build politicians who have the policy and the charisma to impassion the party base.

I’m wondering how many voters who lean Democratic didn’t bother because they didn’t think they really needed to show up or their state was a lock.

But would you be eating pizza while fucking in the pool?

What does it mean to be dignified, and who gets to make that determination?

I don’t think anyone was saying it was shade. It just seems like she’s totally full of herself to compare herself to those people (though I would argue that she’s of far more significance to music and culture at large than Amy Winehouse). But, I mean, she’s not wrong to put herself on the level of those others. She’s…

More like Oscar’s trash can.

He’s the reason these videos work as well as they do.

Those other, older female performers are behaving the way some people think they should. That’s why they’re not all being criticized. Madonna is being criticized for not acting like the way society wants an older woman to act.

I don’t know why anyone would rip you apart for that. Just goes to show that Madonna has never really changed who she is—and that’s fine.

Those examples, especially Kate Bush, are not good examples. None of them have attempted to have a sustained, very high-profile career in the public eye for nearly as long as Madonna.

people don’t like madonna because she’s not self aware

I’m giving a particular side eye to some of you baby feminists on this very site who always have to comment about how nasty, thirsty and embarrassing she is (see Carpool Karaoke comments for a recent example of this).

Or income level. The Catholic school where my sister lives has tuition based on income, similar to tithing.

Some Catholic schools charge tuition based on parents’ income, like tithing.
