Backstage at London Fashion Week.

i just searched the lady gaga tag to see if tumblr savior is working ,and then i see this . she angers me so much

seriously what the fuck are you doing

you get my gif too

if you can wear it, why can’t she?

Because she’s not Muslim, because she’s not from the middle east, because she can’t fucking wear shit that has religious and cultural significance for the name of fashion while my sisters, myself and milllions of other muslim women still get shitted on by western society and are called oppressed for just wearing a hijab, let alone a full veil and face covering while this woman can wear a cheap ugly tacky piece of shit and call it a burqa.

JUST ANOTHER GODDAMN REASON TO HATE LADY GAGA

are you fucking kidding me

and people ask me why i hate lady gaga

One more reason why Lady Gaga is a total shitbag in my book.

Yes, let’s all call her a shitbag and hate her

never mind that she’s done great philanthropic work and has been incredibly supportive of LGBTQ causes

she is also guilty of cultural misappropriation and that makes her a shitbag

YOU GUYS. Just be mad at THE THING YOU’RE MAD AT. Don’t call a talented, hardworking woman a shitbag because one of her many bizarre outfits was racist.

say “wow this was inappropriate and kind of offensive i hope she apologizes”

not “WHAT A SHITBAG”

Don’t tear down a person’s entire being because they make mistakes. This outfit is absolutely offensive. And guess what? That does not make Lady Gaga evil or erase her good deeds in other areas. Use this as a reason to talk about cultural misappropriation, not what a piece of shit Lady G is and how NONE OF HER PREVIOUS CHARITABLE ACTIONS MATTER NOW BECAUSE BEING GUILTY OF CULTURAL MISAPPROPRIATION IS BASICALLY THE SAME THING AS FORMING A LYNCH MOB

because it isn’t and you know it. If you want to trash-talk a celebrity, by all means do it. Seriously, go ahead. I think it’s an incredibly vapid, self-serving, and pointlessly cruel waste of time, but I don’t have any right to tell you what to do with your life. Just don’t hide it behind your social justice community bullshit. If this was really about racism, that’s what you’d be talking about. You wouldn’t be tearing down one of the few famous women who does genuine good for other social causes.

Maybe it’s because anytime someone talks about or explains why something is racist they’re quickly shut down and told that their opinion is nothing but social justice community bullshit. So it’s just easier to call her a fucking shit bag and go on with their day.
