    Reddit calling her racist for it being evident she doesnt engage with their culture is nonsense. Are we expected to know everyone’s culture? A person got super loud and interrupted her, she smiled and nodded and said she didnt like it. When they mentioned culture she made a quick rmark about yodeling culture. Move on

    It’s really hard to call this racism, because zaghrout-ing is loud.

    This may be common concert behavior in Arab countries, but others expect “quiet enjoyment” of their expensive concert tickets.

    It would be like someone blowing a vuvuzela during a concert and saying it’s their way of enjoying the experience, while ruining the experience for others.

      My guy is seriously claiming people come to Coachella for “quiet enjoyment”

      Those loud uncultured Arabs simply don’t understand that in North America everyone is quiet during outdoor concerts, pausing only for a respectful golf clap between songs!

      That’s not about race, it’s about culture. You don’t call someone racist because they hate vuvuzelas, for example.

    Imagine having fans from all over the world but you hate them.

      Some people paying enormous amounts of money trying to make the pilgrimage to that place. Unfortunately not all of their heroes are glad to meet them.

      A singer who’s entire shtick is sexualising herself in very gross, infantalising ways, while also going “🎶I hate men, kill all men, men are creeps and jesus weeps🎶” - i presume that’s a fetish for some guys, being treatrd like shit by a scantily clad lady, idk.

      It’s crazy cognitive dissonance in her behaviour, from my perspective, and i’m very trouvled thst she’s promoted as a child friendly singer when all her songs are just full of sexual innuendo and sexualised outfits while also fuelling some toxic sex-war.

    it would be really hard to remove anything “from Lemmy” since “Lemmy” is just software and doesn’t host any content.

      I don’t think I’ve ever seen lemmy show up in web search results though. Reddit’s almost always at the top.
