A white woman who grew up with a lot of money and likes to think she's woke but doesn't understand her own privileges sounds like a hyper liberal to me.

And the way she's basically insulting everyone who had something to say about her first message, like... Lana, gurl, did it occur to you that the problem might have been your phrasing? If you had been perfectly clear the first time around, you wouldn't need to keep going on and on and on about it. Also, I still have no clue what point she's trying to make, so looks like that 2nd message failed as well. Waiting for a 3rd explanation with her basically talking about her upcoming spoken-word record in the middle of some rich girl nonsense. this. i don't understand either. the delicate/fragility part is so confusing in her argumentation  9 minutes ago, PEZ said: "in what will inevitably become a new wave/3rd wave of feminism that is rapidly approaching" am I reading this wrong or does she genuinely not realize third-wave feminism began in the early 1990s and that we're already in a fourth wave? sis is behind the times lol 7 minutes ago, zebulonpyke said: We love quasi intellectualism. 3rd wave feminism is literally the re-appropriation of the male gaze. Does she mean 4th wave feminism? this too. lana, maybe read a few more books on feminist theory and historiography before writing one  while you're at it, perhaps you could also watch mrs. america instead of making these ig notes *betty friedan and judith butler voice*  stella + elliot = stelliot Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

My understanding was her saying they all sang about extremes in their relationships be it sexual, romantic or infidelity and when she sang about her extremes (as volatile as they were) she got dragged. She then addressed the said staggers, critics and indie artists, not the main pop ladies, so why is everyone offended? people are not offended by what she was saying on her post just how she said it. she had no reason to mention those women. none of their no.1 songs are about any of the subject matters lana writes/ used to write about. hell kehlani does not even have a top 10 let alone a no.1. she sounded bitter af mentioning kehlani lana's most successful eras have been BTD/ PAR and UV lol where she did talk about those subjects heavily. it's not like some big publication wrote an article criticizing her past lyrics recently to make her go off like this cuz critics have been up her ass lately blowing compliments. the whole thing is literally out of nowhere. this feels like one of those quarantine-making my brain explode-realization moments that she posted for the world to see. she offended some of the women she mentioned and when they talked to her she basically ignored them. is that not stubborn and problematic behavior? like how high up your butt do u have to be to not understand that a lot of people were offended by your post and still keep writing dumb **** 'defending' yourself. pls Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
