notes from a pretentious prick.

dovves:

The dependency of someone on relationships to be stable & happy is just too sad. I see people chase it; it’s ubiquitous, the eyes of haunting desperate-to-feel-good-about-themselves typa people. I wouldn’t really blame them, it is pretty good to feel wanted, missed and loved.

But my point is,…

**Trigger warning for apologism, privilege denial**

I thought I’d make a list from the notes of the Gaga Goes Geisha fiasco. These are the apologist marks made in defence of Lady Gaga so far:

• THIS WAS IN THE SUN THEREFORE IT CAN’T BE TRUE
• THIS ISN’T GAGA’S FAULT, SHE DIDN’T WRITE THE HEADLINE/COME UP WITH THE IDEAS FOR THE ASIAN ISSUE
• AS A WHITE PERSON, I DECREE THAT THIS IS NOT OFFENSIVE
• THIS ISN’T A FULL REPRESENTATION OF GEISHAS AND/OR JAPANESE CULTURE, THEREFORE IT IS NOT OFFENSIVE APPROPRIATION
• THIS IS FROM THAT SONG ‘I’M TURNING JAPANESE’ BY THE VAPORS, THEREFORE IT CAN’T BE RACIST
• YOU’RE ONLY SAYING THIS BECAUSE SHE’S QUEER
• YOU’RE ONLY SAYING THIS BECAUSE SHE’S TALENTED
• YOU’RE ONLY SAYING THIS BECAUSE YOU’RE AN [ABLEIST SLUR]
• TELL ME HOW IT IS APPROPRIATION BUT THERE’S NO GUARANTEE I’LL LISTEN
• IT’S NOT AS BAD AS KE$HA, THEREFORE IT’S FINE
• SHE’S TRYING TO HELP JAPAN, SHE RAISED MONEY!
• SHE SAID SHE LIKES JAPAN!
• PEOPLE SHOULDN’T TAKE THIS SO SERIOUSLY
• IF GAGA WANTED TO TURN JAPANESE, SHE’D TURN INTO THE BEST MOTHERFUCKING JAPANESE PERSON IN HISTORY
• HATERS GONNA HATE

Apologists always come out of the woodwork, but 50% of reblogs on this post seem to be apologism. Lady Gaga fans appear to be the biggest apologists of all.

Lady Gaga fans appear to be the biggest idiots of all time.  (No offensive Jose, I love you).

I’m not an idiot, nor do I apologize for anything.
