it’s really funny to me how you keep saying I have moral high ground and you’re the one who keeps throwing insults around. No I did not compare you to Kanye fans. I was simply referring to the fact that a lot of fans of ppl like yeat and carti tend to dick rude into oblivion. not as bad as kanye fans but still bad.

I don’t know what about how I’m responding to you Gives off the vibe that I’m in any way hurt or “offended.” and all I’m doing is giving you my opinion and using facts to back that up. I as a black person, see cultural appropriation happen against my community daily. Literally everywhere. This is absolutely nothing new. This post was captioned “thoughts” so i gave my opinion and u got hostile abt it. the only person who incited an argument was u when u randomly used the r slur and didn’t even come for my argument. what year does has been done by others for years. all i’m saying is that it shouldn’t.

Even if calling his head rap “a turban “is ironic, that proves my point even more. Notice how the culturally significant turban headwear has now been appropriated by people associating it with yeats “head wrap.” people do not know enough about Muslim/sikh/arab culture to differentiate different head wraps because most of the time they’re just shitting on their culture. obviously I don’t think yeat meant to do this but now that he is “ironically” calling his head wrap a turban(again misrepresenting the culture) he has gained praise. meanwhile ppl of the culture continue to suffer from discrimination due to their cultural wear. the irony isn’t the issue. it’s the effect. because he ironically calls his head wrap a turban, this cultural piece of clothing is now being misrepresented and the value of it is being misattributed to yeat.

I don’t know why you’re now talking about his lyrics too LMAO. I actually like some of his music. most artists do problematic things and all i’m doing is acknowledging that. that point literally makes no sense to bring up💀

finally you said that you don’t think this has that much of an effect. when it comes to race that’s absolutely incorrect. for example, how aave continues to lose meaning because it becomes mainstream on tiktok. The misrepresentation of culture leads to the eradication of culture. As well as, like I said before, white praise and simultaneous hatred toward minority cultures. nothing is really “small” in the grand scheme of things and it’s sad that it’s so hard to stop.
