DISCLAIMER: just like every single rant I publish, I have to put in a disclaimer! If this topic sets you on the edge and gets you angry or offended, please leave :) If you do go on however, and you still are offended because your fave is problematic, do not ignorantly comment here. PM ME PLEASE, THANK YOU!!

let's spill some tea

ELIZABETH OLSEN

birth: February 16, 1989 (age 28), Sherman Oaks, Los Angeles, CA

known for: Captain America: civil war, Godzilla

I'm still shook about hearing that she was problematic. In fact, the entire cast of Avengers: Age of Ultron is. (This is probably the oldest rant, I'm sorry yoikes). I got this off of fangirlfeminists on tumblr:

Joss Whedon (racism, sexism, ableism), x

Jeremy Renner (racism, sexism, slurs),

Robert Downey Jr. (racism),

Mark Ruffalo (racism),

Elizabeth Olsen (ableism), she also used racial slurs,

Chris Evans (sexism) apologized properly.

ok but like did anyone know this, I'm living under a rock

EMMA WATSON

ARCTIC MONKEYS (Alex Turner specifically)

BOISNZBZBXGAHA I WAS DOING SOME RESEARCH AND ALEX TURNWER IS PROBLENDNBMATIC I'M SO AHZHAVGX

Okay anyways there is sexism in the "Do I Wanna Know" video. Racist/culture appropriation of the Native American Headdress and Alex also wore blackface at the Brit Awards.

(I'll list band alternatives)

THE BEACH FOSSILS

I honestly only listen to their amazing music, but I don't look them up (meaning their looks or personal self). I don't think they are too popular either.

HAMILTON

HAMILTON IS MY FAVORITE SOUNDTRACK! I haven't seen the musical, so I can't say anything. It isn't exactly a band, but the whole group of songs are ethereal. (mhm love me some Philip Hamilton)

HALSEY

this is going to be a little shorter than the others, since I'm wrapping the rant up. I received this information from yourindiefaveisproblematic on tumblr.

??? that is incredibly racist. you guys may not see it as a big deal, thinking that everyone of all races obviously multiply but ??? why would she specifically pick out this one race?

I don't think she apologized for that either. Halsey also kissed an underage fan without asking for permission ??

smh
