Warholiness 927 Posted February 2, 2016 Share Posted February 2, 2016 BurqGa teas. I saw a few of her fans go in on her, which surprised me, cause they usually act like she can't do anything wrong. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

lego 44,165 Posted February 2, 2016 Author Share Posted February 2, 2016 Just now, Luiz said: whats going on when did you become a robot? It's suppose to be some sort of protection against these ddos attacks? But it often prevents me from posting or creating a thread. "Pick pictures with pancakes. Submit" - nothing happens. That's why I just posted the link, as a test. FreePalestine Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riot Poof 2,236 Posted February 2, 2016 Share Posted February 2, 2016 I'm just glad some SJWs realized that Beyoncé isn't as ***flawless as they make her out to be. I'm not a woman. I'm not a man. I am something that you'll never understand. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alien Tulip 12,428 Posted February 2, 2016 Share Posted February 2, 2016 I'm sure the first thing that came to Beyonce's mind was "What should I do to offend my Indian fans?" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kinsey 313 Posted February 2, 2016 Share Posted February 2, 2016 I don't understand. The music and video are OBVIOUSLY inspired by Indian culture. Is she not allowed to wear Indian clothing because of her skin color? Ridiculous Like...give me a break. It is not a big deal. It's a beautiful video.

2007 5,291 Posted February 2, 2016 Share Posted February 2, 2016 "cultural appropriation" is stupid, I don't know what's wrong with people in the 21st century that made them over using this term? Do they even know what it mean and when it can be used?? I remember as growing up "appropriating" someone else culture used to be considered as an homage, it was loved, appreciated and respected between people as long it's presented in a respectful way. Since when didn't became a bad thing??? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kayla 7,595 Posted February 2, 2016 Share Posted February 2, 2016 The tweet that says "it's crazy how literally all the india music videos hit all the same beats. holi paint, bollywood, poverty, spirituality. come onnnnnnnnn" is what most accurately describes the cringeworthy nature of it. It takes a culture and narrows it down to the Ooohs and Aaaahs parts that us white people love to see. I'm not up in arms or super upset about it, but I'm also not a person from one of those places. That being said, I do understand how constant romanticization of my culture would become really annoying after a while, so I get how people would be bothered by the video.
