honestly the real issue with the "call for change" blogpost is that someone really DOESN'T GET A JOKE.

I felt the need to quote and bold this because this sums up the whole issue with them only attacking one group instead of doing it on a higher level to the point where they address it in all genres of music.

If you want a so called call for change, that change isn't going to happen by going after one group that's only a small piece of a larger puzzle.

I try not to let it bother me and just chalk it up to them being ignorant asses. I also try to show them that saying that word to me doesn't have any effect on me so they can say whatever they want. I'm not going to get riled up and react like they want me to.
