But he didn't say it tho?

he didn't, he only mouthed the next word "tires"

at worst the clip is ambigious & then it's still a reach. 

 

blinks have been trying to make this an issue from the start

this is freaking bts.. big outlets write about them if they sneeze, you don't think they would have RAN with it already?

He mouthed it, he could’ve very well said it too, but it’s hard to tell if he audibly said it because the music was so loud, but he definitely mouthed it and even if he didn’t audibly say it y’all dragged Giselle for mouthing the N so what’s the difference? Why is he getting a pass?

 

im not here for the selective outrage and I’m gonna call it out when I see it. Period. Don’t drag certain people, but stay silent for others. I’m not here for it or the performative mess that goes on in here

It doesn’t look like he said it to me. More like he skipped the word and still rocked to the beat. I understand the concerns about the selective outrage but at the same time, whether or not V said or mouthed the word doesn’t change that others did.

The same user who was coming for taeyeon and Giselle btw (and a Chris brown supporter but if the shoes fit)

I don't even care for Giselle like that but I better see the same energy directed towards V in this thread and everywhere else :giraffe:

Not them trying to Lucas him nnnnn

I fear we might need to organize a counter attack


 

TO STAND UP FOR JUSTICE!

TO STAND UP FOR KPOP!

DATING IS NOT A LEGITIMATE SCANDAL!

SEUNGHAN IS NOT LUCAS!

WE LOVE SEUNGHAN!

speaking of lucas. notice how this dating scandal has clear selfies with the girl but with lucas it was pictures of him sleeping on his couch. that stupid scandal was so fake

And yes it's unclear if V actually mouthed it but if it was Jennie or Lisa nobody would be giving them the benefit of the doubt.

overproduced artists just don't work in the US anymore. I won't be surprised if Dream Academy flops into oblivion

 

kinda feels like they're gonna debut the Ava Max of girl groups. cute bops but no flavor. we'll see!

Ava Max has hits though! She IS flavorless I agree, but if that Dream group manages to get at least one song with 1.4B streams on Spotify, that would be an amazing achievement already.

no one is above it

but you guys need to stop weaponizing stuff like this

 

one said the word with even an emphasis on it & with one it's not even clear if he mouthed it or not (he didn't)

you can dislike bts & they have their mistakes, but stop comparing situations that arent the same or forcing things that aren't true

Girls groups have been flopping for two decades. Only Fifth Harmony could get like two cute hits, and they flopped afterward. It will be a miracle if DA succeeds.

As if we all don't give black piss an enormous dose of benefit of the doubt with their especially rampant appropriation of black culture and regular reliance on black talent but giving apparently 0 back to black causes or platforming black artists. Other fandoms don't operate the way you do. Get it through your heads.

women are held accountable way more than men in the entertainment industry (for obvious reasons) and it needs to be discussed but not in the sense of "but if a woman did it" but rather that both need to be held accountable equally. Some things are just not okay

how does BP appropriate black culture any more than 95% of the kpop industry.

 

BP also platforms black artist at every concert they ever held. 

 

and that doesn’t take away from the fact that BP didnt activity show support during the BLM movement in 2020

bts are the wrong male idols to proof your point

don't act like they aren't the most dragged act in this thread

 

WHEN they **** up (& the 2 situations you're comparing aren't the same, no matter how much you force it),

you can be sure they are treated the same, if not worse, than most female acts here

you can make your point without resorting to disgusting and vile nicknames. "other fandoms don't operate the way you do", yes you do. but only when it comes to BP or a GG you don't like. :bibliahh: I've seen you and other users do the most about the most little things. :bibliahh:plus it would take one quick little google search to drag everyone in your sig for culture appropriation so lets not go there

The same BTS who donated $1M to the BLM movement? Who spoke against racism at the UN?  Who spent their debut year at the West Coast learning about the origins of hiphop, the group that constantly credits black artists as their inspiration.
 

Why on earth would V switch overnight and start saying the Nword on a public livestream? Use your common sense people. His mouth was simply open.

I've never seen SNSD or aespa in 40 inch braids or putting on a black coded accent in their rap verses. But the point wasn't to say that BP are bad people, it was to say that we aren't dragging them over it.

 

If relying on the talents of black instrumentalists and dancers/choreographers is the same as giving them a platform then I guess every kpop group that tours is woke now, including the ones y'all want to be outraged about.

Until there's an official notice that the nickname rule is going to start being enforced in KTRL or Blinks stop acting unhinged with their attempts to bring down literally every other idol/group that's successful, I'll call them anything I please as long as it isn't slurs. :bird:

I keep my hardline stances pretty consistent regardless of if it's an act I like or not, see me defending BTS despite having a total of like 20 streams across their entire discography ever. I'd be the one skulldragging Armys and Mys if that was a video of lazy.

Thank you for proving my point that this is how Blinks operate.
