River 117,656 Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 I think he had Judas in his mind, as friend who betrayed him but he kinda messed up he apologized since then so it's not really a mess, just bad wording So sploosh your juice all over me you Riverboy Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Controversiaga 11,554 Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 People need to stop using mythology as a means to justify real life behaviors/actions of people. Pronounced like “Balenciaga” . Emphasis on the “Ga” Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like he said the "they" was directed to his friend, I guess he didn't want to expose the gender of the person so he made the tweet pretty vague.

LilyLark 10,112 Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 He didn't mean Jewish folks. It's not uncommon in AAVE to bring up Judas as a betrayer when calling out fake people, but I get how it can be interpreted a different way considering he said "they." But I thought it was pretty obvious that was clearly "not" what he meant by his tweet. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nodandsmile 10,739 Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 if you're confused by what someone said, ask them what they mean instead of going straight to outrage especially when you have such a big platform Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mistakes are obvious looking backwards. But not so much looking forwards. Not defending anything, but it could just not have crossed his mind that people could interpret it differently.
