“I wrote this next song because I was sick & tired of these micro-aggressions. So tonight, this goes out to a white man that watches Ghetto Gaggers & mocks Asian people on a podcast. He also owns my masters. I've had enough.”
i think we should let rina sawayama swallow matt healy whole
I'm sorry but Taylor Swift literally writing a song about having a tantrum because her fans called her out for dating Matty Healy.
Her fans go, "Yes, queen, no one can tell you what to do!"
Her POC fans were allowed to be upset that someone they have monetarily supported dates a known racist who said he enjoyed watching corn of black women being brutalised. And even if it was a joke--- no, stop, hear yourself, it's not fucking funny.
She also keeps cosplaying mania and mental breaks. Babe, having a breakdown is not an excuse for dating a known racist like jfc.
On another note, she keeps referencing and alluding to Joe Alwyn having depression. She's done it on multiple albums. It's not her place to out his mental health issues.
It sucks because I genuinely enjoy so much of her music, but she's so damn problematic.
Fuck you Matty Healy. And all of you fans celebrating this.
Malaysian Queers are the ones affected by this. Listen to us.
Matty Healy's instagram posts literally prove he does not care about us malaysians. He's going to go back to the UK (The country where the roots of Malaysia's laws and government started during colonisation!) and sit his privledged ass down, not caring about him losing fans in Malaysia because we only portion to a miniscule amount of his money.
If he really cared about our rights as queer malaysians, he would have contacted the LGBTQ NGOs and offered his assistance to protest. Not speaking up over our voices. Not mocking a Malaysian Queer who dm'ed him being rightfully upset. Not posting mocking Malaysia (and only West Malaysia! Shows how little he cares) Not saying, "I'll take your money" then fucking off (Many queer Malaysians were probably at GVF as well!)
We have the right to be concerned, government elections are coming up, and the right wing extremist party WILL use this as ammo against us.
In fact, they're already doing it!
On reddit malaysian fans are concerned, worried, yet their worries are being downplayed or straight up ignored. While international fans celebrate this guy for doing "the right thing"
News articles right now are only posting about the incident, but not our opinions as queer malaysians. In fact, I've only seen ONE news article with our voices heard.
Listen to us. Please.
Support our LGBTQ organisations. Donate if you can. AMPLIFY our voices. Don't speak over us. If you really care about our safety and rights, listen.
It's the least you can do. We don't want much. We just want you to listen. We're in a third-world country that nobody really pays attention to, and if this just sweeps over like nothing in a few days, we will be stuck in the same situation or worse.
