It’s not blackFACE! So it’s like…..not racist anymore!

Just so we’re clear:

blackface=racist.

entire body painted black=TOTES NOT RACIST OMG IT’S BODY PAINT

It’s not like that’s like blackface times a thousand or anything!

And you know what, no, I’m not done with you yet because this is just ridiculous. You seriously are sitting here crying your fucking alligator tears over how unrelenting we are, how we’re just so mean and you set it up like we just want to police your fucking life or some shit. You can’t stop for one fucking minute and think, gee, all of these people are so riled up and passionate about that maybe I should pay attention to what they’re saying. But no, you won’t, because you don’t give a shit about POC and you don’t give a shit about the oppression of others. All you and other fucking racist, privilege-denying people care about is defending whiteness and privilege and the right to own and take and misuse and misrepresent and commodify and fuck up whatever the fuck you want.

Yeah, who cares if we’re exploiting this religion that is already constantly misrepresented in the media and reducing it to simplistic, harmful symbolism! It doesn’t negatively effect me so who cares!

Oh, what, all these people care? Well, they’re wrong and just looking to be offended!

Empathy. Learn it.

Privilege. Check it.

Systems of oppression and inequality. Understand them.

But you won’t. You’ll just keep going on thinking that we’re just out to get you. But, like I said before, this is not about you. This has never been about you. This is about calling out shit that supports oppression. And you support oppression. So you get called out. It’s not that hard to understand.

People who think the “No Light, No Light” video is “racist” are extremely uneducated.

EDUCATE YOURSELVES BEFORE YOU BASH MY QUEEN

Florence’s video shows nothing about white…

WHO GIVES A SHIT BRO. IT’S FLORENCE WELCH HER VOICE SHITS ON EVERYONE’S VOICES K THNX BAI.

She ain’t the first racist person who could sing, nor will she be the last. 

Just like you’re not the first white fool to gleefully take a dump on people who’ve been victimized, just because you can. 

All is typical. Nobody gets a medal. 

OMG, I fucking hate people who can’t see past their love of the celebrity or artist and accept that they’re not fucking infallible. It was the same shit with the John Lennon “Woman is the N***** of the World” bullshit. I fucking love Florence and the Machine. Doesn’t change the fact that the No Light, No Light video has blackface and represents voodoo/vodou as evil and that is racist at it’s core. No one is taking your Florence albums away from you but ya’ll need to calm the FUCK DOWN, get over your star-struck bullshit and accept that artists make fucked up choices all the time, sometimes more than others because they think they can get away with it because OMG ARTISTIC LICENSE, SYMBOLISM, WHATEVER.

No. Just no.
