We can condemn Lana for desecrating a warbonnet as a symbol of rape culture and hanging out with predators like Terry richardson and jared leto while also condemning predators like i6ix9ine. Its possible to walk and chew gun at the same time. Deflections are transparent.
I see lana's pr team are working hard using the same deflection strategies that got her here in the first place.
Already saw that she sicked twitter followers on music critic ann powers who reviewed her album, even before her little rant. So its obvious its just one tantrum after another.
She got a bad review on an album and she took it out on Black women then proceeded to use Native charity as a crutch.
Part of the reason predators are so rampant in Hollywood is ppl think seeking out one MOC offender is sufficient activism for the day, while not interrogating any other industry folks. It's no wonder the YT ones think theyre infallible.
Anybody else does anything remotely offensive and suddenly the red herons pop out the wood work to deflect. Guess what there are plenty of yt predators in Hollywood and they are the company they keep.
If they can't comprehend being told not to wear a war bonnet and yall dont see how that aligns with the concept of consent and rape culture?
They know what they're doing. https://twitter.com/xodanix3/status/1263756456710385665?s=19
Also i canceled i6ix9ine AND nicki minaj a WHILE ago after Nicki reposted that sexualized pocahontas fan art and collabed. Which again no one cares about. Cuz they permit rape culture everytime its natives. So no. U don't get to leverage that to defend Lana.
The Pocahontas fan art was like pedo porn too. I think we gotta focus on the overarching issue that this shit remains so normalized in Hollywood. Thats multiple ppl. Ppl basically just use paper bag test on pesos and allow the most yt to escape.
Pedos* I mean look at Nicki's stage name as Roman zolanski. After the director Roman polanski that fled to Canada. Again, highlighting a systemic issue.
But if this were an out nicki then these same folks bringing up 6.9. Would ONLY focus on her cuz she's a black woman to deflect from Polanski and all these other industry perves that use opportunity to gatekeep. Like Weinstein.
Ppl that make the false equivalencies tell on themselves. Basically showing THEY don't do the work of canceling ppl they should while also refusing to interrogate yt men in power.
The ones who yall are listing as some moral comparison to del ray are actively being cancelled. U just fail to engage the work of ppl that actually resist against systemic power.
That in itself is a dog whistle no diff than del rays comment about neing a delicate flower. When a ww is on the stand ppl quickly bring up BIPOC that have already been criminalized as if theyre pointing out some fullfilled prophecy. How about just being accountable.
The implication of saying BIPOC like 6.9. Cuz they hate Lana del ray!
= if u don't identify with WW fragility and fetishization you must be a POC that doesn't cancel POC pedos. And no. Read about how structural power works.
