You're Sorry, Right...

 

Recently rapper, Dababy, said some foul things at his concert.  He let the world know his opinion on Gays & HIV+ people.  After having his ass handed to him by the public, peers & collaborators, he "apologized."  He went on his version of an apology tour.  

I hate the concept of apology tours.  You did own, own it.  If you don't want to own it, don't do it.  If you screwed up, admit it & move on. Dababy's  actions  weren't a mistake, they were a misjudged attack with more severe consequences than he expected.

He was dropped from a lot future engagements.  His apologies evaporated.  I wish people would accept  there are a lot of artists out there who hate Gay people & those HIV+.  They think they can have a public  meltdown or attack & then makeup for with an "apology" on social media.  This man meant what he said.  Or at least  thought it would resonate with his audience.  Think about that.  That's  the kind of artist some of you are supporting.  I don't think he should  be cancelled.  But, I wouldn't support him or pay to  see him.  Vote with you wallet not the mob.

Apologies are easy for people like this.  Controlling themselves & being accountable are the hard things.  Never trust a simple "I'm sorry," after a heinous act.  That's how abusive relations start.

Too Late...

 

It would seem that the brat rapper, Dababy, has figured out how bad he screwed himself with his anti-HIV & anti-Gay commentary at his concert.  At 1st, he was calling anyone commenting about, internet bitches.  Now he's apologizing for his HIV comments, but not the rest.  He says, everyone misinterpreted his meaning.  Oh, sure Jan.

This is nothing but an attempt to walk back from his statements while still trying to save his face.  It's not  working.  If the only way you can make a  living is by attacking others, there's always a chance it could blow up in your face.   I'd love to say he'd grow from this, but I doubt it.

That's all for now.  I have a dental cleaning in a bit & I need to get  ready.   Take care.

They're Surprised...

 

Yesterday I wrote people laying out basic HIV info like it was new.  This knowledge is 4 decades old.  If people don't have it by now, they're never going to get it.

I saw 2 articles this morning, 1 was a serious duh & the other should be a wake up call, but it won't be.  The 1st piece talked about how pediatric HIV care in Africa wasn't on par with the rest of the world.  Well, Duh!  Very little on that continent is on par with any thing else in the world.  They do violence & human rights violations very well.  Should we clap  for  that?   Africa is a troubled place.  But, at  some point, we're going to  have  to  accept outsiders won't be the people to fix those problems.

2nd, a pissy rapper, Dababy, decided to trash gays & HIV+ people in his show.  He's a needy little,  attention starved, bastard.  But people, this is nothing new.  The levels of hate in rap against a lot of people, especially Gays, is old news.  OMG, a rapper was  an asshat,  who'd a thought it?  Rap  has been a vehicle for a lot of messages, including hate.  A lot of rappers are notoriously anti-gay.  At least until they're found  trading tea in a a park stall.

People, the info is there & has been there.  Learn it & stop being surprised.  Take care,

Cya...
