it's not that deep and there's no need to make such assumptions pulled out of thin air  

you're just letting your own insecurities shine through  i asked a simple question 

You asked the question rudely and accusingly, though, so I had to prove myself. It's not about insecurity, it's about making sure that people see who I really am, not the person they think I am from occasional misinterpreted posts and rumours. My reputation has been sullied around here by certain people who want to make me look bad even though if they met me in real life, they'd find I'm completely different and they're suggestions are laughable.

Personally I don't find her or her music very special. Thats just my opinion. Not that its bad or anything, its just that kind of faceless R&B that fades into the walls imo.

And honestly? You are still arguing from the position that things are equal between races and therefore people's reactions should be the same. But they aren't, so they won''t. I don't usually like to debate such subjective things, but a lot of your post is just entirely dismissive of her and it doesn't seem like you've taken much time to try to understand. 

THISSSSS

Back on this whole alleged trend of black people feeling like they "deserve" anything and reacting unfavorably to loses in comparison with white people. Accept the fact that not all things are equal. Sometimes, people lose because they were simply beat, and outdone. Other times, the odds are stacked in ones favor for whatever reason. All loses are not equal. In a society where white people are often and popularly awarded for mediocrity in so-called institutions that are meant to praise greatness and out of the box thinking, creativity, artistry, etc. It can be hard to discern what things are a matter of so-called "deserved" losses and hidden bias. We know sociologically that some people just prefer things of their own race. Its still racist, and sometimes its a subconscious bias, but it is a bias and it is definitely there. So of course it sucks to sit there and not know. And honestly, its okay to err on the side of questioning, its not like only black people are upset that SZA didn't win any of the grammys she was nominated for. Many if not most music critics and people that follow the grammys expected her to, because she really did better than her contemporaries this last year in some of those fields (yes some, I think she earned 1 or 2, but not all 5)

But I disagree that it's racist, it's just a basic survival principle.

I studied sociology too. I didn't actually do anything on this side of things but it's a basic understanding that most people will have. Preferring that which you're used to. All races do it. Even the SJW Franchesca Ramsey thinks we all do it. As long as you don't think that those who aren't like you deserve to be treated badly, there's no problem with it. What do you think of blacks in black majority countries preferring their own? Do you find nothing wrong with that? If so, what have you got against white people doing the same, provided there's no malicious intent?
