It's quite simple. Eminem is white and male, that means he's a hateful misogynist and homophobe. Azealia Banks is black and female, that means she's empowered by rapping about cunts, bitches and catching a nigga's warm goo in your do-rag. Thanks to progressivism we can finally judge people by the content of their character. (/s, Let's face it, everyone can see this is politically motivated and the demand for empathy and charity only ever goes one way. Apparently it's ok to set cars on fire and smash people's heads in for political reasons, just as long as you loudly explain that you're _against_ fascism and nazis while doing so.)

I saw plenty of evidence that Nazis are doing the same in charlotesville and else where. There was an old Nazi by the name of Tubbs, who was actively directing skirmishes. <30 seconds of googling can help you factually on this.

I think it's safe to say everyone knows Azealia Banks is a tool.

GOD no! It's worse! You Americans are now dealing with the fall out from the consolidation of vote banks and the Fox News effect. Decades ago, when Fox News was created I watched shocked as the first assaults - the first "alternate view points" on normal events were initiated. Soon you saw assaults on climate change. I thought "oh, science will win." But no! Fox News cultivated cranks, gave them a platform, and after building it up, for scientists to come on their shows. Scientists had studiously avoided talking to cranks - it would have given them more space and then credibility. But with Fox News behind them? And it's audience which was much larger than anyone else's? Climate denial became a force in its own right. Anyway - those scientists went ahead to debate on Fox News. Except it was never a debate. It was spectacle in the old roman sense. There was no debate, just derision. And that was the first time I was truly worried for reason and logic itself. And then America gave birth to creationism. I couldn't believe it. American market dynamics found a way, to convince millions that evolution was a debated topic. Imagine that!! People are debating whether evolution occurs! Anyway, once the net came, even Fox News was found wanting. Those techniques could be reapplied and enhanced - and you got breitbart and the rest. And now America has president trump, who just made up stuff about permits, and then brought up the concept of the alt left. It's so unfortunate that the only thing left to do is despair.
