(AP Photo/Jocelyn Noveck) Back in the 1990s, there was a very brief flurry of popularity for an English alt rock band named Pop Will Eat Itself. The band’s name was and is quite prescient, given the pop music and pop culture world’s present insistence on believing the myth of social media equalization between performer and fan. It should come as no surprise that the same followers who one minute are all bout the “YAAAAS SLAY KWEEN” will the very next minute turn with equal ferocity against the one they had just praised if said performer dares go against, or even appear to go against, the current party line. Such is the situation with rapper Nicki Minaj, who today was raked over the burning Twitter coals for daring to admit she had recently contracted COVID.
The matter started with Minaj replying to a fan’s tweet regarding why she didn’t attend this year’s Met Gala. Love u babe. I was prepping for vmas then i shot a video & guess who got COVID? Do u know what it is not to be able to kiss or hold your tiny baby for over a week? A baby who is only used to his mama? “get vaccinated” Drake had just told me he got covid w|THE VACCINE tho so chile https://t.co/wInXoJcHBn — Nicki Minaj (@NICKIMINAJ) September 13, 2021 Minaj, whose son will be turning one at the end of this month, was immediately jumped for appearing to be anti-vaccine despite tweeting her support for same. Apparently telling the truth about what fellow rapper Drake told her, namely that he contracted COVID despite being vaccinated, was too much to bear. Not you being anti Vaccine 😭 please NICKI delete this I can’t keep doing this — KC Minaj🍀 (@PIanetWhoree) September 13, 2021 Reading comprehension is somewhat on the wane these days, so it would seem.
Anyway, back to Minaj. She continued her story regarding the Met Gala. They want you to get vaccinated for the Met. if I get vaccinated it won’t for the Met. It’ll be once I feel I’ve done enough research. I’m working […]

They’re Trying to Shut Us Down
Over the last several months, I’ve lost count of how many times the powers-that-be have tried to shut us down. They’ve sent hackers at us, forcing us to take extreme measures on web security. They sent attorneys after us, but thankfully we’re not easily intimidated by baseless accusations or threats. They’ve even gone so far as to make physical threats. Those can actually be a bit worrisome but Remington has me covered.
For us to continue to deliver the truth that Americans need to read and hear, we ask you, our amazing audience, for financial assistance. We have a Giving Fuel page to help us pay the bills. It’s brand new so don’t be discouraged by the lack of donations there. It’s a funny reality that the fewer the donations that have been made, the less likely people are willing to donate to it. One would think this is counterintuitive, but sometimes people are skeptical because they think that perhaps there’s a reason others haven’t been donating. In our situation, we’re just getting started so please don’t be shy if you have the means to help.
Thank you and God bless!
