where does all this hate come from? eight months ago you were praising her for being everything the music industry is adverse to: a biracial, mentally ill, bisexual woman who wrote her own songs and wasn’t afraid to speak her mind. and now, the first reply to her tweets is usually someone suggesting she kill herself.
there was some unanimous decision out there one day that we were going to start bashing her, looking for reasons to drag her. and you know what? you’re only proving that there is this hatred of pocs, mentally ill people, lgbtqia people, and women, alive and well in our society today.
what the fuck did she do to deserve this treatment?
“oh, but her music sucks!” there’s a really simple solution. don’t listen to it.
“oh, but she kissed a minor!” she kissed a fan. onstage. she didn’t have some intimate moment with this fan, and she made sure she had the fan’s consent via a head nod. i’m not saying that that’s the best thing she’s ever done! but she’s a fucking human being. and you would let your male faves get away with this in a heartbeat.
“oh, but she used a transphobic slur!” yes. before she hit puberty. when else has she shown anything but acceptance towards trans people?
“oh, but she lies about everything!” what, exactly, does she lie about. i’m so fucking curious. please tell me. if you’re saying that she lied about being homeless? nope. i have it from a reliable source that for a time, she was, indeed, unsure of where she’d sleep each night.
“oh, but she was a bitch in high school!” how do you know? from anonymous asks on a hate blog that could’ve been sent by anyone? and honestly, what does it matter?
“oh, but she’s so fake!” about what. she is the realest. she confronts the people who talk shit about her online. how much realer do you get. even i’m not that real.
and even if all these “complaints” of yours were valid, why the hell would that give you the right to tell her to kill herself or that you hate her en masse?
congratulations for successfully bullying a woman off of twitter, i guess!
Man, I’ve been meaning to buy her album for a while. Guess I better get on it. Cause her music is Awesome iMo!!
