"She hears what she wants to hear." - Max ("Collateral")
See, this is the hypocrisy that I'm always going on about. The same people who find the immense amount of time on their hands to criticize me and my views are the same ones who embrace what they claim to hate from the people they choose to idolize.
If, tomorrow, I said "I don't write stories with white people in them because I can't identify with them," every self-righteous white liberal and conservative would troll me with the claims of "reverse racism" (an impossible term, which by the way, makes absolutely no sense whatsoever). But low and behold, Lena Dunham has actually made that very same claim about the lack of black characters in her work, yet she recieves no backlash at all. Just fame, fortune, and a hit TV series on HBO.
As Paul Mooney would say: Complexion for the protection.
