We have found it ladies and gentleman! The key to ending protest culture. The key to blurring the racial lines we have become so quick to draw. That key is Queen Bey. Who brings people together like Beyonce? Sure, there will still be those complain when she does an ode to the Black Panthers during the Super Bowl, but if anyone else had done it we would still be talking about it. Beyonce does it and a week later no one cares. The Bey Hive is just out there all by their lonesome with no one to swarm on. People couldn't even stay mad at her long enough to justify standing out in the cold on a weekday and accomplishing absolutely nothing. I am not even kidding, I had no plans to vote but I might just go and write in Beyonce's name on the ballet. I truly don't think there is anyone that transcends race like she does. A black women that resonants with the vast majority of young white people? Set the inauguration. Let the Queen take office. She may not know a damn thing about international affairs, but at least she can put a dent in the rampant rise in racial tension this country has been facing. Beyonce had the gall to indirectly encourage violence against the police force and all the 'Single Ladies' couldn't even stay outraged long enough to make their way to the streets a week later. It's not about ending racism in this country. That's a pipe dream. It's about condensing the amount of time following an incident that people are whining about it. It's about limiting the amount of people that are outspoken about it. If Beyonce can silence an offended demographic of society in less than ten days then she's already doing better than anyone else that's currently running for President.
In reality, all we really learned here is that white people just like to find things to bitch about in the moment. We don't necessarily care enough to do anything to change it. You know where Tomi Lahren is right now? Likely sitting on a couch with her feet up drinking a caramel macchiato without a care in the world. She was offended enough to defend her statement on TMZ, but you can bet our ass she doesn't give enough of a fuck to stand outside by herself in New York City. That's no place for an entitled white woman. She does her best demonstrating while sitting in a nice warm leather chair in front of a camera. She loves her police force, but thinking she -or anyone else for that matter- is inconveniencing themselves to support them is how you end up with what appears to be the making of a Beyonce pep rally outside of NFL HQ. h/t BSO
