ageism is bad but acting as if it’s on the same level as racism is…. :rip:

 

he could’ve made the point without bringing it up.

Thank you. Imagine comparing a universal thing like aging that everyone if they're lucky will experience to racism which only affects the minority :rip:

 

Madonna foolishly made the comparison in 2015

 

Madonna Compares Ageism Against Her to Racism and Homophobia

Ageism and racism are not mutually exclusive.  One can suffer at the hands of various forms of oppression.   Madonna is oppressed for being a woman who is growing older in the public eye.  Her experience is similar, though not equal to racism in that it’s oppression based on immutable characteristics.  Madonna, who has been fighting racism and homophobia in public since the 1980s, is right to compare ageism to those things.  The elderly deserve our support; they’re defenceless and most lead lives of quiet desperation.  Madonna is by no means elderly but still faces judgment and discrimination.  What does this tell us?

Embarrassing how even after 40 years on top, they think they can take the Queen down.

Not when Madonna herself is one of the biggest ageist in the music industry.

This is a load of sh!te, tbh.

 

If Madonna was as ageist as you say, she wouldn't have been seen dead without her make up and hair extentions in front of thousands of fans during tour rehearsals...

Receipts???

 

1- Non-ageist people embrace their age and are proud of it. Madonna, on the other hand, is so ashamed of her age she desperately wants to act and look young.

 

2 - She's the only celebrity I know that plays the victim everytime the media calls her "old". I wonder why lol

 

3- She literallly said that she doesn't like to hang around people her age. 

 

4 - Her lovers all happens to be decades younger.

 

5 - Just look at her...

What a perfect way to demonstrate you know absolutely nothing about Madonna, or anything else :rip:

 

1 - The video above shows her revealing her flaws / without any make up in front of thousands, which proves she's not an ageist at all, but someone who clearly doesn't give a fk what people like you think of her. She would've trowled on the make up, put on a wig and wore decent clothes for the rehearsals if she gave a fk.

 

2 -  Madonna doesn't play the victim, but even if she did she has EVERY RIGHT to considering she's been attacked and referred to as a Grandma since she was 35 (younger than what Beyonce and Gaga are now).

166469903-3186546814781865-4992234824389

 

3 - She said she prefers hanging out with younger people because those of her age cannot keep up with her. 

A little context wouldn't go amiss.

 

4 - Her lovers aren't all decades younger either.  Warren Beatty is 21 years older than she is. Her ex husband Sean Penn is 2 years younger, and Guy Ritchie was ONE decade younger.

 

5 - Post a picture and we'll all judge how you look.

 

If you're going to troll you should at least be good at it.

Nothing you've said is factual, it's all just lies and half baked truths which mostly boils down to your pure hatred for Madonna.

Pure hatred? I'm not one of you delusional stans who live their lives through their faves. 
 

Madonna is just a human being with her virtues and vices just like all of us. 

I just casually read a colossal bull****t about her and just stopped by to give my two cents.

The colossal BS is coming from your own mouth, and it IS pure hatred considering you can't let a Madonna thread go by without making a snide comment on everything she does. This thread is about Chuck D's appraisal, but you've used it to ridicule her appearance and the fans. Your hate is so irrational I wouldn't be surprised if you find her breathing annoying. Seek help.

so many of you in here are praising Chuck D but couldn’t rap 5 songs he was on nonetheless name them.:oh:

 

I say that to say, yes ageism is an issue within the music industry and has been used against Madonna many times. But please, do not follow behind a willfully ignorant black man just because he’s speaking to a point you’re trying to make. :skull:

colossal bull **** is your haters and other conservatives who sleep overnight and troll over anything madonna does. baseless supporter beam, cancelation of her activism, and typical misogyny and ageism. i can name a few already for recent attempts in desperation.

1 - Madonna embraces her age, she just is against the status quo, living by the rules or way defined by age or people in that age. She acts like she wants not by other people rules, trying to look young every celebrity does why she can`t?

2 - She doesn´t play the victim, she expose the ageism specially on older woman, she was called older by her 30. And certainly she wasnt the only one.

3 -  True, and she explained why, try to search if you want to know...

4 -  Older male celebrities have younger lovers, why she can`t? Because she is a woman? Cher had and nobody slapped that on her face...

5 - She looks good, i`ve seen her in november and she looked so good. 

6 - And this one is for me, you must be one of those who hates being a Madonna fan, try to resolve that, and respect a wonderful older woman who is living her life and career by her terms and not by yours or media or people who have a very sad and boring life.

The Queen continues to inspire people in different ways. She should be canonized as a Saint.

I love that he stood up for her but racism and ageism are not even remotely the same. 2 uniquely set of different issues.

Thanks for your unnecessary take. This came directly from a Black man. And if you had any discernment you'd understand what he meant

And as a Black man myself, I disagree with his take. It's nice of him to stand up for Madonna, but he didn't need to equate ageism to racism.
