Thank you. You said exactly what I think. Some Madonna fans seem to think the world revolves around Madonna. They also forget that all public figures are targets of scrutiny on social media not just Madonna. So whatever heat she faced recently is a drop in the ocean compared to the issue itself. Nobody outside of her fan base and some internet trolls really care about David’s dancing or whether she wore a mask or not. There are much bigger issues being discussed here. nito84bcn, madonnaultimate, Voguerista and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps they are more accepting but there is still a lot of racism in the uk, Europe, Australia, everywhere! Not just America. I have heard about it and witnessed it first hand countless times all around the world and I am white. Gilbert and Fighter 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately, racism is alive and well across the UK and it also exists on an institutional level (recent example: https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2020/mar/21/windrush-institutional-racism-hostile-environment). Racially motivated attacks have also risen since Brexit (https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-48692863). It doesn't help that Boris Johnson, who's basically Trump with a thesaurus, has a long history of using racist language, calling Muslim women "letterboxes" etc (https://www.indy100.com/article/boris-johnson-racist-keir-starmer-pmqs-george-floyd-black-lives-matter-9546586).

TwistedRope 277 Posted June 7, 2020 Share Posted June 7, 2020 I’m actually really proud of her for doing this and literally walking the walk when it comes to her talking about equality. Even on crutches, out with the public, she didn’t have to be doing that but she did because she genuinely cares, and I really respect that. I only wish she had a mask on. Even if she thinks she’s had it and is now immune (which there’s no proof of it working like that) I’d still rather she didn’t risk it. I just want her to be safe. London has actually been quite far ahead of the rest of the country in terms of infections and the rates have dropped really low as of a couple of weeks ago, we had a bit of a head start with it here. But even still, with all these hundreds of people gathering I’d rather she was extra cautious. maxijazz 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes shes tested positive for antibodies, that means she may have some immunity, its not proven, its not sure how long it may give you immunity if any. She may well still be a carrier and potentially give it to others. This is why she should wear a mask for those around her. I am in the UK and this is against what the government is asking. I think shes being totally irresponsible and somewhat naive. And people who have had covid 19 have then tested positive at a later time.

Blue Jean 15,114 Posted June 8, 2020 Author Share Posted June 8, 2020 Why are so many fans obsessed with whether she’s wearing a mask or not? I’m so sick of the corona police. It is not mandatory to wear a mask everywhere. In fact, it is not even proven that it helps prevent the virus. So just let people make their own choices, it is not up to you to decide what others can/can’t do or to police others.

steady75 9,566 Posted June 8, 2020 Share Posted June 8, 2020 This was a boss bitch move from her. I’m really proud. We went on the protest yesterday and honestly. The social distancing thing in many cases when you are wearing a mask and gloves is no different to going to the supermarket. She really showed up for her kids here. How could she not go? I disagreed with the David dancing video because of the scrutiny it would put him under. He’s a child, but maybe she sat and had the conversation with him before hand and prepared him. Asked him how he would feel if this should happen. Empowered him and said she would be there to deal with the fallout. We don’t know the conversation she had with him. She’s more than what you see posted on here social media. No one could be better trained to deal with negative reactions really.

Because she is currently in a country that has had between 40-60,000 deaths already... with hundreds still dying every day. Marching outside in a large crowd, not observing social distancing, without any protection in this hellish pandemic is highly irresponsible, to say the least.
