For anyone that doesn't know about her, yeah, she's crazy. But she's not really "political"

But what she's saying about it not being a big deal before the 90s...

Yeah, that's unfortunately true, and in lots of communities a 14 year old being pregnant just ain't that notable.

We have a 38 year old grandma in politics that will never shut up. She married and had kids with a guy she met who flashed her at a bowling alley while underage, and lied to the cops for him when others reported a drunk guy was wiping his dick out in front of a bunch of kids in a bowling alley.

Now her teenage son is being charged with child abuse too:

Where Azealia is wrong, is saying because it used to be normal, means it's ethically ok now.

Which again, is pretty much exactly on brand for Azealis banks. She always stops a step or two too early with her logic.

But lots of people just look at if something used to be accepted to decide if it should be accepted today.

In addition to that, she’s straight up saying (although not in those terms) that grown men were preying on her at 15. It’s not uncommon at all for victims to refuse to admit what happened to them was wrong, because if it was then suddenly you have to process that. It doesn’t make it okay for her to be saying it’s fine, but it’s definitely different than someone who wants to fuck 13 year olds saying the same thing.

Yeah, I wasn't insulting her when I said she's crazy...

She has legit mental issues, and her only hit was like a decade ago:

She was really talented, but yeah between her own past abuse, getting signed at 18 with a massive hit and then just nothing...

None of that has helped anything. It's why I've never liked when people pile on her for dumb shit. She is a broken human, and we should help people like that, not point and laugh.

And I have no idea why, but she's somehow always in the headlines. Just a week or two ago she leaked Connor MacGeegor's dick pic because he randomly sent it to her.
