Ain't no hypocrisy from Ms. Ru...that's just your agenda showing.
...keep reading, sweeties. Don't act like some backwater evangelist, picking and choosing the verses that fit your ego-driven perspective.
...and we quote from the article you linked to on HuffPo:
"[I]n the ACT UP age we called ourselves queers because we earned the right, we took the word back," he explained. "But in reality, once you go even deeper, you know, you have to come from intent. And black folks call themselves the n-word all the time. It's because the intent is coming from a place of love. If the intent is coming from a place of hatred, that's different."
RuPaul in 2012 on the word "Tranny":
Rupaul on Amanda Bynes using the word "faggots":
You be the judge...
...thanks, for the invitation to judge.
You chose a perspective then proceeded to take excerpts from select references and forced them to fit your agenda.
You don't know Ru...that much is obvious.
You speak from ignorance, not having walked even a step in Ru's shoes...not that you ever could.
You never bothered to read the WHOLE article to see that it not only challenges your point of view, it refutes it by revealing it.
Some white boys just cannot handle a strong, black woman.
I didn't even make an argument. I just provided evidence that might complicate simple exoneration.
Some, thankfully few, already do in much the same way as some feminists oppose drag.
It's always confusing and disappointing when those who have suffered so much at the hands of a majority that demands they conform to some mainstream ideal of normalcy would add to the pain in the world by coercing another minority group to conform to their demands.
Those who have not discovered their own strength and power are forever trying to steal some from another.
The weak remain so because they are constantly destroying themselves in the world around them.
Hate consumes us.
An you harm none, do as you will.
You took statements out of context, put them in an order to make your point and directed people to judge RuPaul based on your chosen presentation.
...that's an argument, sweetie.
That you don't understand what you've done (or are simply claiming ignorance) is reflective of either the clueless nature of the worst of Seattleites passive aggressive nature or the obvious need for remedial education.
The rhythm of the dance floor is calling me back, baby. I gotta go.
You asked for judgement, not an argument, and you got what you asked for.
Deal.
While i sympathize with hunger of those that seek marriage and protect themselves from intrenched hate as expressed in speech, words and legislation barring me from entry hurt me too, I'm a part of the latter camp.
Get rid of the game. I want as little in common with those that oppress as I can have.
In the 21st century the mainstream "liberals" are telling gay people who refuse to conform to the new norm to be silent, to be ashamed for their controversial views, and to hide who they are from public view.
As more members of the gay community assimilate into the mainstream expect more of this type of censorship.
Those who lead the revolution are condemned by the generation they freed.
Well, you are the resident expert in that field of expertise.
Even so, it would certainly be ironic to trust your judgment.
