#2: Fat white people. Here’s hip-hop star Azealia Banks keeping it real:
“Like, I hate fat white Americans. All the people who are crunched into the middle of America, the real fat and meat of America, are these racist conservative white people who live on their farms. Those little teenage girls who work at Kmart and have a racist grandma—that’s really America.”
-
Who is Azealia Banks and why should I care?
-
Sorry Azealia, you are under the impression that all white people in America have ancestors that go back many centuries to the slave owning days. My ancestors came to this country in the early 20th century dead broke with zero slaves in their luggage.
I owe you nothing. -
I gather that she has never actually met many white people.
-
Azalea Banks is black though, so technically this isn’t Stuff White People Hate.
-
And my reading comprehension is off – this is White Stuff People Hate, not Stuff White People Hate, so please disregard my previous comment.
-
Even at “US Magazine” the comments section is a sewer. The woman’s opinions are hideous and stupid, but several of the responses make Archie Bunker look clever.
As for Ms. Banks, I suspect the level of pushback will determine if she has to walk back any of what she has said. She seems dumb enough to try the “I was misquoted” or the “statements taken out of context” defenses, but if she’s hired the right PR people there may be some attempt to play it as a persona.
-
Yeah, Azalea Banks, the one who says she’s a witch and that blacks are all natural magic users. Not racist at all. Dumber than a sack of hammers, but that’s not the same as being racist. Lots of stupid people are not racists, although nearly every racist is stupid.

She mahd ? Maybe because the brothers will pick a woman that looks like the poppin fresh dough boy in red head drag over her?

From the article:
My little white fans will be like, “Why do you want reparations for work you didn’t do?” Well, you got handed down your grandfather’s estate and you got to keep your grandmother’s diamonds and pearls and s—.”
So I guess we all got estates. News to me.
And then:
I wrote in the journal one day, ‘I cannot stand this white bitch teacher. F— this white bitch.’ She found my journal and called my mother, who was embarrassed, because my mother used to say stuff like that—’White people are of the devil. Stay away from them.'”
Who got what handed down from their parents and grandparents? The irony is palpable.
