gagzus 13,646 Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 She's getting dragged for wanting peace 💀 I knew Americans weren't the smartest but y'all really take everything to new heights. Anyways hopefully they buy ARTPOP on iTunes since they're never gonna stop their 1-Up complex in life. Sad. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

No , she is getting dragged for tweeting "#ThisisnotUS" when in fact this is exactly what the US is.This is everything that this country was built on....we're talking hundreds of years here. There is massive outrage & outcry because now it is YOU guys on the receiving end.You'd think after what happened with Justin Timberlake in 2015 , she'd check herself before tweeting something that could be viewed as ill-informed and problematic because as a white celebrity she will get checked on it by Black Twitter... regardless of the purest intention,unfortunately. It was not wise to use that hastag. She didn't think or use good judgement . Period . No, I won't elaborate. I just told you. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

S0436 10,215 Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 You will find by the end of the day many many major stars will be dragging Trump on social media, it's not like it is only Gaga.  Please.   Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bitchimtrying 2,495 Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 2 hours ago, yes said:   I love her and I'll f*** with her till the end, but she really needs to think of other ways to speak out against white supremacists. I don't care about other artists, I care about my fave, and I don't want her getting dragged. 20 year old Lorde is out here admitting to her privilege and apologizing for the white people hurting us. I'm sorry, Gaga. I love you, but I'm not gonna #BeKind to a nazi, that's not an option for me. I couldn't help but think about the Kendall Jenner Pepsi commercial when I saw her tweets. NO. What Lorde has done is make it about her and her apology for her white privilege. What Lady Gaga has done is promote peace and kindness. Gaga never once said be kind to Nazi's, not once, you are all spinning her words. What she is saying is while you protest, remember that in the face of adversity you will be given two options: Kindness or Violence. Are you going to stoop to their level or are you going to show that you are above them. THAT is what Gaga is saying. And seriously, you're going to compare her to that Kendall Jenner Pepsi Ad? She wasn't telling people that this can all be solved by holding hands and singing. She was telling people that everyone needs to come together whether you are black, white, gay, straight, etc and diminish walls so that was can stand strong in the face of this adversary and blatent show of racism. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you are saying Gaga's tweets weren't about allyship?!  What were they saying, to be divided and fight each other?! Why should anyone apologize for what race or social standing they are?  It's about the response that really matters.

They were very "kumbaya, let's hope we can fix this problem by being nice." That's cute, but it's not going to fix the problem at hand, which is systemic racism and the threat of ACTUAL NAZIS. What is going to solve it is action. Whether that's keeping white friends/family members in line with racist comments, making sure Nazis are not able to spread their hateful speech, or defending POC and marginalized groups.....not "#bekind" "#thisisnotus." Because it IS us, and we need to change that. Been a long time but I'm back in town, and this time I'm not leaving without you Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it's about unity, then it must be unity against this nationalistic movement. I believe in love and peace, but it is a necessity to acknowledge that these people are dangerous and do not want that. She will learn, I hope. 3 points in and ready for more Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AddMeOnMYSPACE 1,815 Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 wait what did Gaga mean when she tweeted "#ThisisnotUS"? Cause she's getting dragged for it, which is kind of unnecessary. Unless I'm not getting the picture.   Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
