I've heard it a few times that if you want honesty, look to a drunk or a kid. Everyone else is working hard to keep their demons from coming out. If you're a little racist, maybe you smile at those you consider below you. You'll be just polite to get out of that scenario as quickly as possible. If you're sexist, you'll let the woman explain before getting a second opinion from a man.
How about this one? All I can say is to be naïve... After the "scandal" caused by TYGA, I kept looking into him, mostly because a certain friend of mine likes that type of music. Of course, different strokes for different folks, but some people don't deserve a second chance. Chris Brown, his buddy, of beating up Rihanna fame, I refuse to hear any of his music voluntarily myself. I've looked at the lyrics, texted with her to get information on what is so worthy of this guys music? Her response was that he has changed, his first two albums were more her style. I forced myself to listen to most of the first album she recommended and it was pretty generic stuff about making it out of the ghetto. A lot of dreaming about running around in Ferraris, and normal teen fantasy stuff. The problem I noticed, as a female listener, every female he refers to is a bitch. Why would any self respecting woman pay for any of this guy's merchandise? "I don't take it personal, it's not meant for me." This is how my friend got herself out of the corner I painted her into.
I'm sorry, but if you are the listening audience, he is referring to you as a bitch. We all listen to bad music at a certain age, but heavy metal music was never calling me a fucking fag or anything derogatory, and if a band did, I probably would give up on it.
I also feel this way about Donald Trump. He hates illegals, with a passion, although he has yet to marry a bonafide American gal. I guess the whiter the better. Some members of my family like his style saying they are considering voting for him. My guess is that after he does away with the brown people who are here illegally, he would start harassing Hispanic people born in the US.
Every election cycle, the people on the left or the right pick up the same handful of items to divide us into our regular colors, red or blue. I think Trump is going at it by attacking a different color scheme altogether, brown versus white. I haven't been paying that much attention to the potential electorates, but I am not hearing the usual division between who can marry, or stances on abortion. These are normally hot topic issues, not that they should be, but by bringing in issues of race, the normal arguments are being avoided.
In conclusion, sorry family, you can't stuff your hands in your ears and say he is not referring to me, when he says he hates illegals, it is just code for hating anybody not of European ancestry.
