What is with you people and your hatred for black people?

Why are all of you so racist these days

Hi @Arobanyan, can you explain what you are seeing here that is troubling to you or seems racially motivated? One of the core principles that we try to operate by here at Beehaw is to assume good faith in others. If you have questions about a user’s motivations, ask them (kindly) to clarify rather than assuming bad faith and responding in an accusatory way. We ask that users give other users the benefit of the doubt “unless they are unequivocally advocating for hate or intolerance of fellow humans”, which I’m not seeing in these comments.

Of course she deserves her day in court, but this doesn’t surprise me in the least. Something about her has always felt off

I hope it isn’t true. I’m not a fan of her music, but I love the positivity she puts out in her performances and her persona, as well as her support of drag culture. I’ll wait to see what comes of these accusations and others.

It’s funny how parasites like you aren’t empathetic towards the victims or mad at her vile behavior. No, instead your go to reaction is to defend her. Disgusting.

Also her “positivity” is good as aids. Promoting obesity, bullying people, and spewing bullshit is not positive.

Well, that’s genuinely a bummer. Loved Lizzo’s music, personality, and confidence. Here’s hoping this is a wake up call for her and she gives a sincere apology

You don’t know that she’s done anything wrong. These are only accusations. Wait for more details before you change your opinion of a person.

These things are almost always one person’s word against another’s and you rarely get more helpful details. In the absence of a recording or something, I choose to believe the victims until shown otherwise. Imo our personal standards for judgement need not be as strict as those for legal action.

“Believe all women!”

“Believe all victims!”

“…unless the abuser is a person that I like then I must rush to defend them because the victims are lying and we need to see all the evidence”

It’s like the classic SA apologists but repackaged.

Sorry, the best the internet can do is immediately announce her as guilty.

Lizzo accused of (…) fat-shaming

The pot calling the kettle black I see. Either way, it’s despicable.

It could be fat shaming or it could be people who are frequently fat shamed through their life by being called lazy assume anyone who is telling them they aren’t putting in enough effort are also fat shaming since the accusation is that they inferred that is what it meant.

More context is needed.

Bullshit, Lizzo promotes this type of cancerous behavior. By her own standards, she fat shamed others. There’s no other context needed. She’s a hypocrite who bullied others. Stop defending her. It’s comical how morons like you bitch and moan about believing victims when it’s some right wing guy doing it but the moment the abuser is on “your side”, you’re all of a sudden pro context, impartiality, and evidence.
