lol ah of course he was being transphobic. i was seriously sitting here going “uhhhh a white dude named kim? that’s rough stuff buddy”
I was understanding it as “2 white men, and Sam Smith and Kim Petras” I didn’t even register it as transphobic
yeah that’s also totally fair. i had heard enough about sam smith in passing to be relatively sure they were white (e: a comrade has informed me they are nonbinary, my b) but this tweet was literally my intro to kim petras lol
he’s promoting her either intentionally or unintentionally, hard not to wonder if there’s a way to hire Ben Shapiro to hate you as a way of marketing yourself. not that I really suspect that here, but it’s an untapped market and we know what happens to those
i’m extremely guilty as charged, actually tbh i don’t really pay a whole lot of attention to the music world in general. i just put on my lo-fi doot doots and call it a day. :blob-no-thoughts:
can’t lie though, learning about this girl via benny boy getting super mad about her racking up a win is pretty good and i’m feeling pretty validated in my choices
