Bucklictic 74 Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 I'm sorry but why is everyone butt hurt that she didn't say a thing about it ? Like you guys have to simmer down and focus on what's important and how to support the victims instead. Plus, in a world where major terror attacks happen all around the globe, but only a chosen part of those attacks get the support and empathy, while others (who have been injured and affected 10x worse than those brought to light) are being kept in silence. I'd personally rather not say a damn word about anything related to it. And I believe that's how Gaga is treating all of these horrors. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember that one country protested against her. Or the time she wanted Russia to arrest her? It is not the same as putting your fans lives in danger tho Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So when my country of Lebanon was attacked last year in ISIS related bombings, that really didn't matter? What about all the other attacks going on in the world? You think that's the norm for them? To expect to be blown up or shot or stabbed or hit by a truck? Yikes at your mentality. I'm embarrassed for you. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
shame 25,360 Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 When tweeting about something makes you seem like a validated moral person more than silently acting on your condolences... Social media can only help to an extent. Whatever happened to pure contributions? angels forever, forever angels Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kermit 15,807 Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 Can a mod close this thread? The OP/member seems to be harshly uneducated on subjects like this and is becoming highly offensive to the Western fraction of the world. This thread can either go one of two ways. Properly or improperly (which is very likely). It's going to get out of hand. “For me, insanity is super sanity. The normal is psychotic.

Monster34 974 Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 She's a singer, not a government official. She doesn't have to or should respond to every terror attack in the world publicly. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because they're women, because they're gay, because they're Westerners, because they are Christian. It is hypocritical of Gaga to preach a message of love but not speak out when hate is practiced. I've never been more disappointed with her, ever. She has a duty to speak out. This isn't the Gaga that we all fell in love with, that's for sure. Are you kidding me? You're selfish. I've never been more disappointed in YOU. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I live in London, just watched thr Ariana concert and so wish she had been there to show her support. Or if not, at least send in a video or tweet her support... takes 20 seconds. I feel really let down. I don't care what you guys say... i need gaga and she is nowhere to be seen... As hard as it might be for you to believe, she isn't your personal life wellness coach. My condolences go out to everyone in London and to you! But please... don't do this. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a shame, she didn't tweet anything. What kind of a ****ed up world do we live in when you stop being a fan of a musician because she didn't type a 140 character tweet on social media. This is ridiculous and messed up. Stop it. Now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

A simple tweet to show her respect and support for the Manchester concert is not going to make her cancel her plans with whatever she is doing. She doesn't owe anybody anything and is free to react to current events in whatever way she chooses. We know she's been a strong voice against this stuff before, and she's still that person. Calm down. Her friend just died and she's hard at work, I don't care how simple you think it would be to make a statement she doesn't owe anyone anything. She might not even have the words to react right now. Ya'll need to stop being so incredibly selfish and judgemental, it's sick. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
