i'm glad she addressed it. even though she didn't personally do it, in a show where she is espousing her control over every element it would have been a misstep not to

didn;t appreciate the quick turn into culture wars from nb muslims who took it as an opportunity to be racist

Right? The "song" is titled Doom. The scripture is about Doomsday. She knew.

I mean you can translate it online and know the meaning and still not be aware about the origin of the quote

[wiedemauchsei]

Right?? Like how do you not research the lyrics etc when it’s in a language you don’t speak?

Thanks for the post, op. I have been wanting to make one these past few days, but time got away from me.

Now we’re getting upset on the behalf of some massive organized religion and some text from a fantasy book? Ok.
