        He’s a white rapper with a goofy aesthetic whose music isn’t all that deep who made it big of a kinda dumb song, when a lot of more talented artists and especially talented PoC artists haven’t been able to make it (He also got some undeserved accolades, something he totally acknowledges).
        I think the hate is misplaced, but I also think the actual level to which he actually is hated is overestimated. Most people either don’t think of him, or think of him as “That guy who made that dumb song”.

            I personally don’t fault him. He’s not personally responsible for his white privilege, and he has both acknowledged that he has it, and that others deserved the spotlight more than he did.

              Oh.

              Fair, that’s kinda what I’m saying.

              It’s, like, saying that the sky is blue. I already know that the sky is blue just like I already know that white supremacy exists. But you can’t just tell anyone that and expect him or her to change the sky from blue to green by himself. It’d have to be a collective effort to terraform the fucking planet.

              (Okay, now we’re just repeating what each other is saying lol)

              But yeah, he’s not the worst white celeb out there, is what I’m saying.

          Bro literally donated to PSL group at one point

          I ain’t hating on him, dawg

          Edit: Like, I get what you’re saying, but we already know this, we already know about white supremacy, and it’s not like Macklemore can really do anything about that by himself.
