So, do you think the misogynistic lyrics passed to millions and millions of young men has absolutely no effect on them?
I must have missed all the concerned feminists marching about that.
Oh, wait, they were essentially marching on the orders of the DNC.
My young man doesn't listen to rap, I have no control over other young men or what they listen to.
I also believe in the first amendment so I may not agree with what they are saying, but they have the right to say it. I won't be voting for any rappers for any elected office just like I didn't vote for Trump.
Curious if the people so offended by Trump's comments on the bus about grabbing p$$$y are equally offended by the many rap lyrics that objectify and demean women!
You might say it doesn't matter because rap stars aren't running for president but neither was Trump when the conversation on the bus was recorded. That argument also does not help you because the wife of our last president as well as Hillary Clinton made no secret of their love for Beyonce and Jay-Z and other rappers while they expressed hypocritical outrage at what Trump said.
I'd love to know how many women (and men) who were out protesting Trump's language are fans of rap and think nothing of the misogynistic lyrics that objectify and demean women.
I wouldn't vote for those rappers either, so what's the point of this post?
I'm not "offended" by Trump's words OR the words of the rappers quoted in this thread. Being "offended" has nothing to do with it. I just think they are ALL unfit to be president, Trump included.
How can I take anything you say seriously when you use a ridiculous term like "micro-aggressions" unironically?
Why would I be using that term ironically? Are you unfamiliar with what micro-aggression is?
You will find them all over internet forums....and within most of the sentence fragments that make up a Trump speech or side of the conversation...
