rinasawachanta 3,074 Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 9 minutes ago, SKANK said: "Como saben los habitantes de Wyoming, RuPaul y su esposo probablemente no tienen nada que decir sobre si se produce fracking en su propiedad. Los derechos sobre los minerales en un terreno determinado, incluidos los combustibles fósiles, se poseen por separado de los derechos de superficie. “A menos que sea dueño del 100% de los derechos de combustibles fósiles bajo su tierra, y la gran mayoría de los ranchos no lo son, no puede prohibir el desarrollo de petróleo y gas. No tienes otra opción”, dijo el vecino de RuPaul, Jay Butler, ranchero de cuarta generación y propietario del rancho Robinson de 18,000 acres. Carreteras y oleoductos salpicados de pozos de petróleo bordean el propio rancho de Butler. “Si conduce hacia el norte desde Douglas, todos los ranchos están involucrados con la industria petrolera”. Si bien puede ser difícil para muchos propietarios rechazar el desarrollo de petróleo y gas en sus propiedades por completo, "negociar con las empresas en lugar de simplemente decir que no, a menudo significa poder obtener pozos e infraestructura ubicados lejos de áreas sensibles de vida silvestre u otras áreas que el propietario se preocupa". sobre”, dijo Shannon Anderson, abogada del Consejo de Recursos de la Cuenca del Río Powder, que aboga por el desarrollo energético responsable a través de la organización comunitaria. LeBar, el esposo de RuPaul, nació y se crió en Australia y heredó LeBar Ranch de su abuelo, quien dirigió una exitosa operación de ganado ovino y vacuno junto con su esposa durante décadas en el rancho. Georges LeBar no posee ni administra ganado él mismo, sino que arrienda los derechos de pastoreo de su tierra a otros ganaderos. LeBar y RuPaul no respondieron a las solicitudes de comentarios. “RuPaul y LeBar no pudieron decir que no al desarrollo de petróleo y gas”, dijo Butler. “No puedo decir que no a ninguno de los ranchos de los que soy dueño. Hay una sana tensión entre los ganaderos y la industria petrolera, y solo hay que negociar de buena fe”. - El guardián Esto ya se publicó aquí, pero vale la pena repetirlo.

Ladle Ghoulash 23,801 Posted February 2, 2022 Share Posted February 2, 2022 21 hours ago, streamstarcrossed said: Because you’re scraping for any defense that will paint Rupaul as the aggressor in this spat with Pearl and ignoring Pearl is the reason it happened in the first place. You don’t get to piss someone off and decide how they should respond. Rupaul never said anything rude to or about her so idk why you're hung up on this. But ok, let’s say Rupaul in fact isn’t the bigger person. What does that change? He still didn’t say anything inflammatory about Pearl or “talk ****.” Again, even if he did, is that really problematic? Another reach. Punching down? What affect did Blame it on the edit have on anyone? Who did he punch? Did he call out any specific queen? Don’t read too deep into a throwaway silly song 💀 even if he wrote that song specifically about Pearl and mentioned her by name…how would that make him problematic? First off, I never personally said Ru was problematic. I said I didn't think what she did was acceptable. Clearly we don't agree on that, so that's fine.

En_Sabah_Nur 9,359 Posted February 3, 2022 Share Posted February 3, 2022 I don’t often post much on here anymore, but I just had to say something about this specific topic though. I am most honestly (pleasantly) surprised by this thread & most of the comments within it! 🙏 It seems like the decade long "RuPaul HATE-Train" (among RPDR "fans") is FINALLY coming to an end…. THANK GOD.!!!!!!!! People are FINALLY growing up & seeing him in a more nuanced human way, instead of the MONSTER that the fan base has portrayed him as over the years now….SMH! Egypt.

Acting like "what do they expect" and "nothing to see here" is dismissing so many peoples experience. I'm not trying to "cancel RuPaul", I'm just trying to have a conversation, Jesus Soo…people are giving you their opinion and you aren’t accepting it as part of the conversation? Like it’s been said, every “reality show” is problematic. Everyone in every show encouraged to act a certain way while the cameras are on. “Extra” personalities are pushed heavily in reality tv, to make the show more entertaining. That’s how the industry works. As for Rupaul: his contributions to the gay community outweigh any sort of “problematic” traits he may or may not have. He gives the queens a huge platform, and most of which are extremely grateful. A few have come forward with a different view, but Rupaul is a person, not a saint. It happens to everyone who is overly successful- eventually people start to try to tear them down. That’s human nature. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CooterFritter 777 Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 She ripped off Azealia Banks Big Big Beat with Call Me Mother while completely ignoring her existence. Openly refused to have trans women on the show for the first like how many seasons? Trans people of color created the ball scene and ru doesn’t call that out enough imo. continues to do business with Todrick…some of the skits border on minstrel acts… not to mention the homogenization of drag in general with classist requirements.
