this reads very differently when you go beyond the first five words
Yes, it reads like "I'm not a feminist except for when it's convenient and directly beneficial to me."

pretty sure this is not a kind of woman but her metaphysics of relations seems to be very advanced

having ppl comb thru yr every thought and sound with dismissiveness/derision (and yes a ton of sexism) makes some ppl extremely defensive. It's not rocket science

i gotta be real i do not think this statement makes enough sense to defend, and that opening line is horrendous, and once again i am like "wow it's even more incredible that this seemingly profoundly un-self-aware person is credited with creating a deeply layered persona that refracts america back at itself or whatever"

But what's more American than a total lack of self-awareness?

Equating her with Kanye as some have is super unfair imo. Her thoughts are messy and sometimes poorly formed but she's very far from some kind of MAGA shithead nor does she seem to be on that trajectory.

There's no good way to articulate how her "I intend to give reparations... to the Navajo" felt like a specific, intentional dig after that opening salvo without making it seem like I don't think native Nations deserve reparations (I do not agree with that position; everyone fucked over by the Europeans that colonized this continent deserves reparations) but that is how that felt to me.

i'd like to point out that Ariana Grande is not a POC despite what lots of people think or thought (I assumed she was hispanic until last year).

i believe that LDR gives money to NA groups in response to having worn a headress in the Ride video which didn't create much controversy at the time but did more recently when it became more taboo to do such things.

I’m sorry that the folks who I can only assume are super trump/pence supporters or hyper liberals or flip-flopping headline grabbing critics can’t read and want to make it a race war, when in fact the issue was with *female critics and *female alternative artists who are dissociated from their own fragility and sexuality and berate more sexually liberated artists like myself and the women I mentioned.

did lorde go after her?

Apparently she said critical things about her in 2013, and they’ve had low-grade drama ever since (from what I’ve seen in passing online, I’m not an expert here).

Supposedly "Fucked My Way Up To The Top" was a diss track directed at Lorde.

Chemtrails Over the Country Club is a way better title than the previous one she was throwing around

I think it's a second book of poetry, the first one is Violet Bent Backwards Over The Grass which is actually an amazing title. I think she already released this as spoken word, or is going to, which I'm not interested in. I don't know what happened to the print version. At some point she said she actually had it self-published and had copies then nothing happened.
