pharrell and ellen are exhibiting the same tactics they accuse
others of. Their “discussion” is immature and hate-filled. Very Intolerant. In
fact, they are showing themselves to BE what 98% of people worldwide think of
homosexuals – that they are angry insanely intolerant people bent towards
vindictiveness and violence.
Due to pharrell’s behavior over the past week or so, I have pulled
pharrell’s song ‘Happy’ from my Blog, discarded pharrell’s music from my home and
purged it of bad vibes … I don’t make room in my life for small minded nonsense
or violence aimed at anyone.
pharnell’s Instagram 4 days ago: {I
shouldn't even have to post this as you guys should already know where I stand
but If you do not pls know I unequivocally repudiate ANY AND ALL hateful
comments against the LGBTQ community. In addition, I feel we all belong to the
same community, a shared community called humanity. And today and tomorrow and
the next day I will continue to stand with other like minded people who condemn
any and all statements and actions that would seek to deny the basic humanity of
our fellow brothers and sisters. We cannot sit Idly by nor will we speak
silently when we are confronted with such violence against members of our
community. I am personally beyond exhausted by the ignorance and bigotry living
in some people. At times I want to punch and I want to slap a lot of people
when I read and hear the shit that comes out their mouthes !!! I will rejoice
when folks stop thinking they ARE GOD, Jesus' assistant, picking and choosing
what "sins" are acceptable in the Bible, and using the Bible as a
whip! WE can't afford anymore tearing down of our shared humanity. My advice:
If your religion is causing you to spew out words of hate, judge, or look down
on others because of who one loves then you need to change it. And fast. If the
religion don't make you are more loving or better person, ditch it. But what do
I know. My hope is that we ALL go into this new year considering for one moment
that we don't have all the answers. My hope is that we become more
understanding, less judgmental, more tolerate, and more patient with one
another. Including me. HAPPY NEW YEAR.}
That’s a
pretty v.i.o.l.e.n.t. Instagram rant from someone who claimed 5 days ago to “condemn
hate speech of any kind”. And it’s hypocrisy considering pharrell also followed
that with “there is no room in this world for any kind of prejudice. My greatest
hope is for inclusion and love for all humanity in 2017 and beyond”. Hmmm. He’s
failing in his hopes by exhibiting - through Instagram and ellen’s show
interview - the exact opposite behavior of what he says.
I stopped watching ellen years ago when she ceased being funny and
turned into a waspish political harpy. It’s too bad that the [happy] pharrell
is following her unhappy example. He's already starting to look like an old man ...
