The F Word

So recently a Female Rapper by the name Azealia Banks got into one of these Twitter war of words with Blogger Perez Hilton.  He voiced his opinion on her Twitter Beef with another Female rapper (is it just me or does all this sound stupid as hell),  Anyway her response to him was to call him a "Messy Faggot" and that he should kill himself.  After many negative responses, she issued one of those weak ass "non-apologies" saying that there is a difference from a Gay Man and a Faggot.  In her revamped definition a Faggot is a man that acts like a Female, huh....what??? Um ok.  

Let me say this:  I'm not a huge fan of Perez Hilton.  He has spent a lot of years and made a lot of money making fun of people, talking shit about people, in many instances bullying people, and now he wants to play the victim when he steps in between a twitter beef (did I mention that I think this is stupid as hell?) and gets called out?  BITCH PLEASE!  As I recall, didn't he call Wil-I-Am a Faggot a few years back and got his ass kicked over it?
But here's my issue with all this:  I guess because Ms. Banks says she Bisexual, that makes it ok??  By her logic me being a Gay Black Man it would be ok for me to tweet or say that I think she's a Nigger Dyke that, should just kill herself because she's a waste and in 5 years nobody will know who she is anyway that would be ok right??? 
OF COURSE NOT!!!

Bullying takes many forms and with social media, it's even easier.   Do I think what she did was an act of a bully?, YES.  Does it lesson the impact that the person this was directed at has at times been a bully himself?  NO, what she said was fucked up and she way overreacted.  BUT are we overreacting?  Well maybe just a little bit.

Look, I don't really think this girl is Homophobic in the least. Ignorant and lacks self restraint?  Yes! I think she needs to be concentrating on promoting her Album and less on getting her Twitter numbers up (or is that how they promote music now, I can never tell).  What she said was fucked up and dumb, but we, the LGBT community need to be concentrating on the REAL enemy,(GLAAD, this means you to)  the people that really want to take away our civil rights, that really want to see us dead whether its by our own hand, by AIDS  or worse, at the hand of others. The closeted politicians that lobby and pass anti-lgbt laws during the day, and out at the bars sucking dick in the back....THAT'S who we should be putting on blast.  GLAAD should not have gotten themselves involved by denouncing what she said.  It makes them (and us) look petty and it does nothing to combat real LGBT bullying. 

Coming soon.......the N word....... 

New Year, New Blog

I've been wanting to start a blog for quite a while now and here it is!!  This will be a short post and I won't get into too much right now, but I will set the stage of how I would like this to flow.

First and foremost:  This blog and the the things I will be talking about will NOT be for everybody.  I like to talk about a lot of different things.  I like to talk about subjects that make people think, get people talking.  I don't hold back and I will use language that may offend so be forewarned.  It is not my intent to offend, but I think sometimes we are too fucking politically correct and we don't say what we really need to say.

Well, I guess that's it for now.  I have A LOT I want to discuss, so I'll be back soon ;)
