And being rude to him, whether he deserves it or not, is not productive imo. We shouldn't punish ignorance with anger and hatred; we should educate. And I hope he truly takes this incident to heart and learn about Africa as well as the sublest racial microaggression one may use without ill will. People did educate him online for hours after that tweet, but all he did was to block those users. It wasn't until Covergirl people spoke with him that he deleted the tweet and issued his 'apology'. He's already had a track record of racist tendencies/insensitive tweets, and whenever people pointed this out to him (as well as about endorsing cosmetic companies that consistently abuse animals for testing) he ignored, blocked, and fought back each and every time instead of listening. Don't assume that people didn't already try to get through to him the 'right' way, just because things like this become the social media storm of the day these days. There's nothing harder for people to do than admit they were fooled. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Princess Die 1,864 Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 Typical white gay bullshit. No hardships are real except your own apparently. Sad part is he wouldn't have tried to apologise if his career wasn't at stake. Nod if you wanna make love with the enemy. ❤ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the people who spent their time feigning outrage while they combed through his twitter history, cherry picking his ignorant comments and sharing them on forums, leading campaigns to get him fired, and vowing to boycott products he is associated with - used far more vitriolic energy than I did, when I reminded a moderator on this forum that everyone is imperfect, including Lady Gaga.

(Side note: the butt of the joke is obviously not Africans, but his dumb friend who didn't understand the difference between E.coli and Ebola.) Yet you have no issue being a moderator on a fan forum dedicated to an adult who used her position of power to raise the public profile of Terry Richardson and R. Kelly? You will boycott Cover Girl over an ignorant joke made by a kid, but have no problem spending money on Lady Gaga products in spite of the fact that she put on her payroll a man who was accused by numerous women of the exact same predatory sexual relationship that so scarred her? You are more offended by a lackluster apology for a kid's joke, then you are by Lady Gaga making a profit from an anti-rape anthem directly after lining the pockets of two rapists with money? That is weird to me. He apologized. The company disavowed the joke. Why is that not enough? The painful truth in this post.... wish it wasn't the case. I think many of us Gaga fans choose to ignore these facts. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JusKeepBreathin 19,311 Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 Get rid of him...who cares there is at least 6 or 7 RuPaul's Dragrace alumns who are cuter and would make more stunning Cover boys. Heck there are cuter guys on GGD.
