Good lord...

Edit: They also are calling the release of this video distasteful due to what is happening in Ferguson right now.

I dunno man, theres a line. Swift would have to be tied up and gagged. And she'd have to sign a release stating she won't write a song about it after.

The word racism has no meaning anymore. It has been watered down because it sells. The race industry is alive and well, and because of it, the word 'racism" will evoke completely different images to children compared to ages past.

Every perceived slight or mockery of anything representative of black culture gets labeled "racist." The word and accusation has become completely meaningless in popular usage as far as I'm concerned.

The reaction of people accused of either being offensive, racist....whatever, from now on should be- "OK". Then walk away like it never happened.

They are quite possibly the whiniest culture on planet earth.

FFS, shut up and just live life like everyone else without all the petulant childish bitching.

They're more racist than any majority group in existence.

Fair point, actually. Manufactured outrage is of the lowest sort.

FTR, I would roger the crazy out of Tay-tay. And that would take some doing. I liked a couple of her past releases ("22" was actually pretty catchy), but this new one sucks. The video is gtg, though.

I agree with the black folk on twitter. I don't think we should ever see a black woman twerk again.
