BEBE by STAYC but it’s just the instrumental because it is that good

the ethan klein thing is insane too omg… like from their original fallout to the new thing with his affair… i didn’t watch it closely but just absorbing it through osmosis is insane 😭

(the way I didn’t censor amb*r he*rd and that got an immediate bot like… okayyyyy)

ofc oomf! i censored the names to avoid bots lol. but the tldr is really more good than bad and better over the years. and if the right succeeds in scapegoating him as an extremist while in power than the can paint anyone critical of imperialism as an extremist 😬

which like, yeah, she wasn’t great. but when there’s only two options and one is pr*ject 2025 ice secret police, your options are harm mitigation or accelerationalism. but he has some good takes and can useful as a political influencers bc he is fr actually anti-imperialism.

like, there ARE things to critique him on! i think as a man he has/had a (perhaps unconscious) misogynistic bias, especially during the amber heard trial as it happened. and he didn’t encourage people to vote k*mala in 2024.

oomf the consensus is that he’s more good bad, especially right now in this moment as the right and establishment media try to scapegoat him as radical when there actually radical alt right influencers that caused real harm from fu*ntes to k*rk. so we gotta push against that

not even the sexiest man on his show

It’s also wild bc plenty of idols do have creative control and creative input. And singing, dancing, performing are all artistic processes. Anyways no shade to Rihanna— even at the start of her career where she has less songwriting credit, she was the coolest

There is a lot to criticize about the k-pop idol system but one of main archetypes of racism against Asians is seeing them as robotic rather than human. In media it’s always they are “technicians” and not “artists”. It’s let’s nominate Parasite for editing and not acting.

People will say this as if there are no acclaimed and beloved Western artists with label support that are (or were) known predominantly as performers rather than writers or vocalists…

FIRST China and then the world!!!

THERE WAS A HEALING
