Most progressive statement by a rapper in 2012, and maybe even now
Check out Noname when you can!
the existence of mainstream queer rappers is definitely a very new thing. you have openly bisexuals like tyler the creator, frank ocean, and isaiah rashad. lil uzi vert goes by they/them. childish gambino said he was unlabelled and playboi carti is too. and like, half of brockhampton was gay or bi
ask any young straight guy what his favorite rappers or artists are and there’s a solid chance he’ll mention one of those. especially with frank and tyler who everyone knows like men, it’s pretty cool when i see straight guys everywhere who are practically stans of them and have posters in the dorm
Condemning homophobia by being ableist; condemning ableism by being homophobic
Saying stuff is r******* is g*y
The left is bringing in the ableists through their acceptance of LGBTQ
The a in lgbtqia is for ableist
Condemning homophobia (and hopefully misogyny as well) in hip-hop and rap?
Using another form of bigotry (ableism) in the process?
i literally know people like that. guy that got banned off twitter repeatedly for fighting homophobes but won’t drop the r slur. people are wild sometimes.
This is like everyone born between 1985 and 1992 lol.
I’m older than that and for a change happy about it then.
Under Trump it was verboten in left spaces to say the r word, and then Biden got elected and overnight all the stupidpol types breathed a sigh of relief and went back to dropping slurs. It’s like they all had to pretend to be good to differentiate themselves from Trump but then the pressure disappeared and they returned to their default setting

People getting offended are just dummies because…? I don’t remember the kids who needed special assistance in elementary school being called cretin or imbecile when being harassed but i do remember the r slur.
Not up to you what or why people get offended but this one specifically has real passion behind it for a lot of people.
Ignoring the rest of my statement. Classic.
It was irrelevant
There’s a qualitative difference between an able bodied person who just isn’t very bright or doesn’t put a lot of thought into things VS. a person with a mental disability. Idiot, stupid, dumb, etc. in the modern context are used to describe the former, while the r-word is used to describe the latter
The words were all created to explain the latter.
No matter how hard you try, you will never stand out as a Le Epic Based Richard Sanchez impersonator. There’s simply too much competition.

Lots of ableist language is acceptable, therefore the word with arguably the most contemporary relevance that offended the most people should also be acceptable.
Is this what you’re saying or, no? If it is, it’s nonsensical unless you place the funny phonics over the mental well-being of a disadvantaged group

This was twelve years ago, the r-word obviously was never good but it wasn’t nearly so taboo in 2012 as it is now. I’m gonna cut him some slack on that, it was well intentioned
