Whitemustang 462 Posted March 22, 2021 7 hours ago, Ultra Violet said: She was always been (quietly) problematic (but now loudly), and she's done some pretty blatant cultural appropriation, I don't know how someone wouldn't see it if they've seen her music videos or her mannerisms. She doesn't do it that bad anymore but it's still there without her realising. I think the years of being silent boiled up and now she won't let it go and that's really bad for her. Definitely agree that her previous political statements made her 'clean', but she really wasn't clear enough and that's made non-stans get confused recently. I don't blame them for thinking she's a trump apologist because she literally said those things. Us stans just had to know her previous statements to get it. I mean, one of the first times she dissed trump was in a cryptic tweet telling us to search ingredients for a global hexing. How were the non-stans supposed to know? She was so close to being as woke as she thinks she is, honestly, but she just went down the wrong path recently. Instead of taking accountability she's just blocking out all criticism as hate and only hate. And now she thinks the problem is other women and therefore can't be a feminist because she's been kicked out or something. Btw this is not all in response to only your post. Just spilling some extra thoughts! Yeah I agree with what you’re saying. Like you said she was quiet about political issues for a long time and that was in her interest. I was happy that she was here for the music (which she’s amazing at) and that’s it. I’m not here for my favourite singers starting to talk about politics cause that’s often when they get problematic. I kind of respected her and liked her because of how honest her lyrics were regarding her experiences of abuse especially during ultraviolence. I never thought she was necessarily glamorising these issues. She made sadness an acceptable and powerful topic to talk about and normalised it in her songwriting in beautiful ways. You’re absolutely right when saying that she has done cultural appropriation before (the Native American head dress in the Ride video is the one I can mostly remember). It’s a shame she gets so defensive about everything on social media. Instead of posting some of the great reviews which have come out in the last few days about the album (and again the vast majority of them are praising it so much) she chooses once again to focus on the negative. She just needs to keep talking about her sad melancholic glamorous life in her songs and stop engaging with the critics in the way that she does. And also listen to POC saying they got offended by some of her comments. 5 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Because lana seems to believe that appreciating the works of POC and having POC friends equals understanding our struggles and excludes her from any ignorance or micro-agressions. And also yes about feminist theory because I think she still believes that any female journalists attacking her = she cannot be a feminist. 6 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This woman didn’t kill anyone, just chill gays idk what you're referencing but i don't think suggesting that lana should read theory is toxic if she went to college for philosophy and metaphysics i feel she'd probably enjoy it tbh and i don't think anyone in this thread is saying she's the most egregious racist of all... people are simply suggesting she could be more educated and aware about her own offensive actions and micro-aggressions... like literally every white person ever should be 51 minutes ago, partymonster said: he's crazy y cubano como yo my love Hide contents i fucking screamed... te deseo cariño, boy it's you i desire 8 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
