When the establishment chose to slam Nicki Minaj for being ‘anti-vax’ after she did not attend the Met Gala earlier this month they were expecting her to roll over and shut up – they did not expect her to stand up to their bullying, and definitely weren’t expecting the monumental ramifications that have ensued.
Enraging Minaj was all that the media’s attacks had accomplished. She repeatedly pushed back against the criticism and even had to respond to a reporter’s threats against her family members by blasting the messages online and threatening them right back.
They had clearly picked the wrong “Barbie” to mess with.
...
Because of Minaj’s enormous online platform, her brave message – “Think for Yourself” – has been able to reach millions of people who otherwise wouldn’t have any access to opinions outside of the approved narrative.
Thanks to her not backing down, it looks like the tides may be turning – more people are waking up.
Now, another hip-hop/pop music icon has also made a statement against the establishment’s overwhelming suppression of information.
On Friday, Rihanna was photographed on her way to the recording studio in NYC and she was wearing a very important warning.
The billionaire singer was seen sporting a white t-shirt with the ominous slogan “Think, while it’s still legal,” and was also wearing a stylish red hat for good measure – nice touch Ri-Ri. (Not a MAGA hat, but I think we get the idea)
...
Rihanna joining the fight for free-thinking would be huge, because of the influence she has over younger Americans that are entrenched within the establishment’s backwards distortion of reality. She has over 211 million followers on Instagram and Twitter alone, and millions more through other channels.
The graphic t-shirt is a great start, with a great message. Time will tell if Rihanna keeps on swinging, as Nicki Minaj has been – I guess it will depend on how the media reacts – will they have another meltdown?
Groupthink lost another one.
It’s finally starting to “be hip” by being against censorship. These “artists” make their living by being able to sense trends and get ahead of them.
Ping.
Well, I for one, am just glad she is opting to wear clothing now.
Change will come from those who have been appeased
the enemy of my enemy is my ally, not a friend, but an ally.
Ruh-Roh~!
I hope this spreads.
We should encourage this and remind them that it is the democrats who have been doing this to them for decades.
You’re not for freedom if you were ok with shutting up Trump just because it was Trump. Hopefully everyone will catch up sooner or later.
I suspect there will be a lot more bad optics coming their way.
“Claps Back”, I hate our promotion of ghetto culture/woke culture.
The IRS will be contacting her. These stars may decide to stick together. Especially when there fans agree or their sells and ticket sales go up. It’s about money. They need other stars like Beyoncé to join in. A few of the male rappers were jumping on the Trump train at the end of the campaign.
“claps back” ...cringe
This and the BLM push back against the vaccine passport are cracks in the facade
Don’t bet on either of these coming over to the right side.
Just a guess, but I would imagine she has lawyers and accountants to handle that stuff for her.
