River 89,326 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 Je ne parle pas français but I can padam if you like 2 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Controversiaga 6,788 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” 4 1 1 Quote 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 9,683 Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 (edited) 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. Edited August 5, 2023 by LilyLark Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nodandsmile 9,010 Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 (edited) 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 Edited August 5, 2023 by nodandsmile 2 1 Quote 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. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
