azealia banks is a delusional conspiracy theorist but she wasn't antivax
lol fair. Was just thinking about their general trolling tendencies. Sad day when arguably my favorite artist of the '00s is reduced to "crazier than Azealia Banks."

EMF is electromagnetic fields.
Per Wikipedia:
Electromagnetic hypersensitivity (EHS) is a claimed sensitivity to electromagnetic fields, to which negative symptoms are attributed. EHS has no scientific basis and is not a recognized medical diagnosis, although it is generally accepted that the experience of EHS symptoms is of psychosomatic origin.

Surely to truly shield yourself you'd need to cover your entire body, like an astronaut suit or something? You'd still be quite exposed if just your hat and poncho were shielded, I'd think.

I can see how anti-authoritarian impulses can lead to anti-lockdown sentiment and from there the jump to full brainworms is a short skip. So it hasn't ruined her old music for me, I don't think she was dishonest in her sentiments back then but she was never the most considered political thinker and it's lead to where it's lead. Not trying to excuse her tbc, fuck her.

“so you married a billionaire” is definitely in this for me, but i dont know anything maybe he was cool for a billionaire. erm also if youre that big a star maybe all your besties are suddenly billionaires and the market is the market

I think marrying a billionaire is the natural progression, but once you hit that point, you should realize that the world no longer needs your terrible political opinions and deep thoughts

its moronic even by her own dumb standards – supporting a white supremacist anxious to do nuclear strikes bc he might also appoint RFK as HHS secretary, which even RFK doesn’t seem to think theres a great chance of that happening. toddler logic.

probably a cynical take but her revolutionary politics were a bit of window dressing and it was always a con, she was never a deep thinker, she was always an idiot, just absolutely a lunkhead. she dispensed with all her supposed philosophies and threw in with the other side as soon as she recognized no one was paying attention to her anymore.
― omar little, Monday, 26 August 2024 16:10 (one month ago) link
she kind of admitted it one time, I think she defended herself against criticism once saying something like "why can't ignorant people make political statements" or something.

She’s always had brain worms but we ignored it because she was dropping bangers. Now she’s not even doing that there’s no reason to. See also: Azealia Banks https://t.co/xCFqeVthc4— Congolesa Rice (@judeinlondon) August 25, 2024
