West Coast 45,795 Posted January 12, 2021 Just now, Clampigirl said: I mean, if I were her, I would feel the same? Ever since that QOTC post (which I still donāt understand why she felt the need to post - just say you think your colleagues are cool, and that you want to do sexy and sad things again like theyāre doingĀ and then justĀ do it?), people have been saying sheās racist, that sheās a Trump supporter, that sheās a Karen and overall just mocking her. Sheās tried several times to make people see that she isnāt any of that, but itās not working and some people just donāt want to listen. Itās been going on for months, even over a year because people called Lana a racist after her fight with Azealia too, I understand if she snaps. I would too. Iām sad for her too, she kinda put herself in this position with that badly worded QOTC post, and I hope she wonāt mind what people write about her too much. But I understand that itās hard - youāre a person people wonāt see, and youāve been called a fraud and fake after your big debut too... I think it takes a lot when youāre criticized a lot for several years. Which might explain her āIām the victimā way of seeing things. Ā I dunno, I feel like Iām rambling too now lol. Bottom line:Ā trying to get rid of certain labels, certain people have stuck on you isn't an easy taskāin fact any attempt at trying to get rid of those just reinforce these perceptions. We live in a society... Again, beforeĀ anyone comes for me, I don't agree with everything (if anything)Ā sheĀ said both today and yesterday, but cancel/call out culture is messed up. 5 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

She's been playing the good girl ever since LFL and now she's tired... I stand by what I said months ago about how NFR was an album she made for the critics and to get the rave reviews she got and I think she decided it wasn't worth it and she's tired. 6 Quote into your eyesĀ Ā my face remains Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ā I dunno, I feel like Iām rambling too now lol. yes but i mean - she has been critically acclaimed and well liked ever since she released Honeymoon... its not like any of that was recent. She started receiving backlash after qtfc only, which pretty much came out of nowhere. Ā the only possible explanation ive got is that lana began to realize how awfully unfair she was treated in the beginning of her career with the acclaim of NFR but who knows... i dont wanna make assumptions about whats going on 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dark Angel 202,321 Posted January 12, 2021 i don't really feel embarassed, but i just really dread the fact that people are going to have a really negative and exaggerated view of her, and although that doesn't really impact me, i'd hate to see someone i really look up to go through that, even if it's a little bit warranted for, like, i just want to listen to her music and not feel weird about itĀ 14 Quote Ā Ā Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

venicebitch 14,339 Posted January 12, 2021 Even though Iām not a fan of her past statements, especially her BBC1 interview, I donāt think some of you are aware of the kind of disgusting comments thatĀ she gets everyday all over her social media for almost a year now. And her main problem is - she wants to respond to each one of them and she usually does it in form of some long, messy statements that can easily be interpreted in a bad way. Stan Twitter is truly disgusting and even IĀ got death threats from only running a LanaĀ updates account and I can only imagine what kind of dark and twisted messages she gets everyday. So do I think all this mess is unnecessary and could be easily avoided by Lana? Of course. But Iām also truly sorry for her and I alsoĀ think that how general public and critics treated her in the first 3 years of her career is what brought her to this point and she didnāt deserve it at all. 16 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
