This is me being a black person reading in an OP generalizing black people. In this comment alone you said "people". That's what you should have said instead of what you said in the OP and your point would of came off a lot more clearer and less derogatory.  That's what I'm trying to say. Actually this quote should have been you OP minus some stuff. Thank you so much for saying this. You legitimately typed up exactly what I was thinking as a black person as well reading this shenanigans, I just didn't know how to word it.  ✿ cherry blossom girl ✿ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm  not the one to comment on race but I find myself defending my color more or here then I have ever done in my life. And I have no hard feelings towards anyone who make these comments but this is what I mean by be subconsciously racist. And the scary thing  is when they do it on here they don't  notice it. You can be intelligent in this subject and take as many classes on black people but it is nothing compared to actually being black. And I'm  not going  to let someone take distorted facts and use it against me and the people who share my skin color. And when I try to speak up they counter argue with pseudo facts. Tbh that is the people we condemn when people like this try to "support" us. I really don't  want to come off as harsh but that's the truth and I need people of all races to be aware of how we look at one another. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've made valid points, you just want to keep going over semantics. This isn't about winning, I think you're just uncomfortable that what I've said is true. Go ahead and block me if you're so disturbed by my point of view. There are more than enough people who agree with me and only want the best. Nothing I've said is meant with anything but love and concern. It's only you and ArtRaver applauding each other here, acting like you're so superior. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fanta 5,019 Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 I wouldn't say all black people are like that, however, the childish Bey stans are more likely to do it and I see I stand corrected as some of you claim they're already bitching on Twitter. There is no reason the BLM movement would attack Gaga for a song about her feelings and opinion of how bad and out of hand the situation is getting (police brutality). During her Zane Lowe interview she was explaining the meaning behind the song and made sure to say "I'm not an African American woman." She knows what she can and cannot say, she is smart. I'm really proud of her for standing up for what's right. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
