    Snoop dog traded a actual lifetime of G credit away for a paycheck to sing and dance for a wannabe dictator.

    I made a 90s playlist recently. Fully omitted snoop dog. He has some bangers but I’m good without him.

    Well, at least he eventually did the right thing in the end. A lot of people in the comments are still roasting him for potential being disingenuous, but I’ll give credit where it’s due - biting people’s heads off after they chose to do the right thing after (well deserved) backlash doesn’t send the correct message to others that it’s worth it to listen to negative feedback rather than dig in their heels deeper.

      Welcome to lemmy. Nothing changes, and if something change then it’s false and if it isn’t then it’s too little too late. This site is so bloody hellbent on being downer collective that it’s slowly driving me away.

      The end? Is he dead now? Was this some kind of death-bed confession or something? Did he at least donate his time to the cause that he got paid so much to tear down?

      Oh, no, he’s just getting paid by someone new now. He doesn’t need credit, he cashed in just fine on MAGA and now he’d also like a check from the gays. The correct message is ‘Working for the nazis leaves a stain on your reputation that a compensated non-apology will not wash away’

      Are you by any chance a battered spouse, eager to accept any insincerity?

    I can’t believe this soft ass theatre kid who decided he wanted to be a piece of shit gangster after the fact, and ended up with a murder beef among other things, ever fooled people into thinking he was a good guy or role model. He’s always been an idiot and im sure he says far worse things behind closed doors.

    Maybe some people in his life have been trying to help him escape the MAGA mindset after he did those events for Trump.

    This guy, man. Every other week it seems there’s a reason for the Internet to do a 180 on their collective opinion of him. In this case, credit is due. We could all have more humility as a society.

    Anyone who has shilled for the fascist regime needs to do a lot of work to regain any kind of respect. If he’s not going to use his platform to unapologetically oppose Trump then he deserves none.

      This is the kind of criticism I can get behind. Good on him for changing his view on this, but everything else is still problematic.

          No, mate. Its racist as fuck. ie “Youre not a real black man, because you do white people things.”. Which is, wait for it, racism.

          Call many white guys “Uncle Tom”? Bet you dont, because no one calls white people “race traitor” except for…

            log off, touch grass. No one said any of that because that’s not what it means. You baited yourself into that position and then got angry about it. Go get some fresh air.

              You can keep on saying it, but it doesnt make it true. You all jumped on the colour of his skin to attack him. Its actually sad how willing you all are to over it look it, because hes not on your side.

            Uncle Tom has a different meaning. There are terms like Oreos, or coconut that imply a black person is black on the outside, but white on the inside, as in, they act white, but appear black. I can see how that could be perceived as racist.

            Uncle Tom has a specific meaning a black person being overly deferential to, or appeasing white people, as a sellout to their own race. It comes from an old character in a book of a “virtuous” slave. It can also be used for any minority person complicit in their own groups oppression.

              You sound MAGA making excuses for why its OK to round up brown people.

              The actions of snoop, have nothing whatsoever to do with the colour of skin. You, and all the other racists, are making about his skin in a “no true Scotsman” fashion. Youre the same gaggle of cave brained cunts who bemoaned Carlton not being “black enough” back in the 90s because he liked Tom Jones.

              Being a shitty person has NOTHING to do with the colour of someones skin. And if you think it does, well, you know what you are…

              Its not really that we have differing definitions, mate. If that you see it as fine to be racist, and I dont. There is ZERO reason to bring his skin colour into the conversation. Yet here you all are. Double, and even tripling down on being racist as fuck.

              This is the problem with echo chambers. You cant even see when youre being the very thing you hate.

        Right, why can’t they be more like MAGAs, who would never weaponize the government to persecute their political enemies? Right, Leticia James or James Comey? (Not Bolton, he deserves it. Not for the reasons Trump is giving, but he’s still such a terrible scumbag, even Republicans hate him).
