never said I didn't "give a shit about the well being and safety of women". I am in a committed relationship with a wonderful woman and I have a young daughter as well, don't put words in my mouth. I said all you people do are dig up past accusations of musicians instead of discuss music. but thanks for twisting my words dawg ;)
By coming in here to complain about "political correctness" in the face of accusations of abuse just because you want to talk about the music very clearly lays out where your priorities are wrt the rampant abuse in this music scene. Great for you that you are in a relationship and have a daughter, but that doesn't absolve you of not caring about women you don't know.
I love how much everything has got them to this point on American late-night television. PS: It appears this newly announced piece of news will get lost in news from 2007. Hope some California fans can go.
how are past allegations that the band never addressed relevant to the conversation of their success. especially in the context that a lot of this album is around the breakup between him and his ex-wife, with whom there are allegations of domestic violence floating around. Saying it’s all due to “Political Correctness” is actively dismissing and denegrating the legitimate concerns users have with supporting a person who does these things. You either need to come to terms with your own line and conclusion behavior, or ignore the posts if that’s what you wish.
what happened to innocent until proven guilty? And you don’t know jackshit about me, so quit accusing me of not caring about women in any sense because it is the absolute furthest thing from the truth
You clearly do not care about women. Your priorities are fucked. None of this would have happened if you didn't come in here crying for a safe space to discuss music made by an abuser. If you don't like that people here are "politically correct" (read: decent human beings), you can feel free to take yourself to any of the countless forums that aren't concerned with prioritizing survivors of abuse.
That’s true when the system isnt rigged heavily against your favor There are many resources to look into with regards to this, and many users who are much more educated than I am in this. Rainn.org/statistics is a good start
FWIW I think it’s okay for conversations about music and conversations about allegations to occur concurrently. I don’t think either party deserves to be shamed, everyone has to draw their own line of what to support. I don’t think anyone who wants to reserve judgment unless/until more comes out is a bad person either, and that’s more where I stand in situations like this where there’s not full clarity and some of the allegations are from more than a decade ago.
This is the problem right here...you are ACCUSING me of something that is the furthest thing from the truth. I care about all human beings. But thanks one final time for stirring the pot.
Yeah man let’s talk about the music. When is R Kelly putting out some more music? Can’t wait for that
Why not? If we just let this behaviour and support slide then it just perpetuates the toxic culture. Sure, people can draw their own lines or w/e the fuck, but if you believe differently and just sit aside and don't act against what you think is wrong, that just makes you complicit in the prolonging of an abuser's career.
This record gets better with each listen. Also, I remember being in high school when the allegations about a particular incident occurred. Wasn't there an interview after legal dealings where Oli made a joke out of it?
lmfao gotta go for that "gotcha" moment right? It might be as if: 1. I was unaware of this and/or 2. This account was made before those allegations came out
You just don't get it, do you? I'm not screaming for safe spaces for Swae Lee's music. How am I a hypocrite for not knowing about these allegations? Am I hypocrite if I am now going to look into changing my username? You're just upset that no one went with your outrage towards "political correctness."
wow another stunning accusation! I ain't upset about nothing, just wanted to point out how flawed your statement is by having Swae Lee as your username.
and do you really think I'm surprised no one else feels the same as I do about political correctness? This site is also among the most one-sided, liberal collectives of people on the internet, of course I'm not surprised.
Bruh, the news cycle is non stop. Not everyone gets every piece of information that comes out into the world. I. Was. Not. Aware. Of. This. I have already taken the measures to change my user name and rectify my place in the situation. Keep going at it though.
Can you please just fuck off already? If you don’t like anyone and no one likes you what’s the point?
