ZacXCX 216 Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 11 minutes ago, Bambino said: Nobody said a thing about hatred or ignorance. However, sometimes, you find really hot topics going on in the world, and you either pick a side or remain silent or neutral. But from someone as outspoken and brave as Gaga, let's say, I expected something else especially when it comes to the example I gave in the OP. That's all. We could obviously discuss this for many many hours and we'd probably end up disagreeing, but once again, I think this is a standard that's WAY too high for basically anyone in the Entertainment Industry, not only our good sis Gaga. 10 minutes ago, NewYorkCity said: The **** is this "tweet something" thing we are trying to promote? What I love the most about Gaga is that when she tweets something, she actually DOES something. THIS. Thank you very much. I'd rather have her focusing on one issue but actually taking action, than tweeting about every social issue that's going on in the universe while doing absolutely NOTHING. ミ☆ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
River 89,598 Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 Just now, Didymus said: Because Israel is engaged in a systematic and internationally illegal suppression of a group of people these artists can never perform for for exactly that reason. Like Russia in Crimea, like Turkey with Cyprus, like US in the middle east and many countries that occupying others or inside a war zone in other countries. If she went to perform in the occupied West Bank, I would say that you are right, but if she performs in Tel-Aviv, there's no reason to collectivlly punish all the Israeli citizens even those who are against the government actions.

I never said she HAS to say something about Palestine, I said it would've been good/nice. What's wrong with wanting your fave artist to care about something you also care about? And if you think that's too much or ridiculous, then why are getting involved with fans? If you don't think she has to? why make a thread about it. I- I don't know, the way you word it makes it seem like she's guilty of something Just my 2 cents though Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Didymus 32,602 Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 Also, can she apologize for working with Rick Ross and Terry lmfao Ross is basically a criminal and she also intentionally chose him because he had a rape scandal (I'm guessing, since it just happened before ARTPOP was released) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

In her tweet, she did seem (at least to me) that she regrets not being fully aware of his situation, and if she has, she wouldn't have worked with him. So that brought some other situations to mind.

Vitleysingur 13,668 Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 19 minutes ago, Didymus said: Zedd? Already famous before he worked with her, that's why she worked with him The rest are all equally dumb examples. She never worked with any of them lol, how does that compare to Madonna going out of her way to do a project with them? She even wanted to perform again with Gaga right after the reductive debacle and Gaga refused I'm not saying Gaga should've supported her peers more. I'm just saying that her calling out Madonna for something she doesn't do herself was just a desperate low blow (and no, that doesn't make all of Madonna's nasty comments she ever said ok, I'm just talking about Gaga here since that's the main topic lol). So she must works with every goddamn junior star to aCKn0wLeDGe them? I saw a kind soul cheer up One Direction after being booed at the VMA. I saw a beautiful mind support Justin Bieber after being roasted on Internet. Madonna collaborating with peers doesn't outweigh Gaga's continuous support and love for others. And in what dimension should a person with basic mindset to perform with Madonna after all this mess? Try again Dreams of you and me are in the dirt.

Siena 4,865 Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 People may come for me but how she is outspoken about sexual assault and supporting all women, yet she openly loves Bill Clinton ( performing at his Birthday thing and saying “ I love you” to him etc). If she believes Christine Blasey Ford then it would be hypocritical to not believe Bill Clinton’s multiple victims. And this isn’t like the R Kelly situation where she didn’t know about what he’s done. Everyone her age should know about Bill Clinton, whether they believe it or not.

None of the things you addressed are apology worthy unlike the Kelly thing, in fact she would have to apologize for the things she didn't do rather than the things she did do, which defeats the title Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

People are hypocrites. People have thoughts which differ from their ideology. They don't have to ask for forgiveness for absolutely every contradiction that makes them human. The R.Kelly thing was understandable (And I still find crazy that so many woke people made Gaga go through her trauma Gaga for a public apology that's done nothing but make people buy DWUW until it's deleted) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
