Again, this is not in any shape or form "an appeal in support of farmers". Read those 6 words. The real Queen here has shaken a nation by just asking why we are not talking about this. This being the top story in the world's biggest democracy. That has shaken these onion skins. https://twitter.com/rihanna/status/1356625889602199552

Erik Larson's In the Garden of Beasts details how Goebbels made a habit of bringing in the US ambassador and whining to him about some celebrity or columnist or organization in the US calling Nazis bad things. Like being on the diplomatic offensive continuously. The US of course

could not and would not do anything about its citizens saying stuff. And Goebbels was educated enough to know that. The tactic there, as Ambassador Dodd realized later, was to leave no time or room for the US to raise issues about mistreatment of Jewish people, its visitors etc.

So Goebbels used the randomest reasons to always be the aggrieved one in that relationship. But even that dude, I doubt, would have gone to town over, I don't know, Judy Garland saying "why aren't we talking about Germany".

Riri leads a pretty wild fun life already but this I'm sure even she finds bizarrely hilarious and ego boosting. It's literally like a butterfly flapping its wings in US causing a cyclone in India! She must have cracked a rib laughing by now.

The most earth shaking 6 words in human history. "Why aren't we talking about this" shook one fifth of humanity enough for everyone to rally against a musician tweeting it and this actually makes everyone finally talk about it as a result. You can't make this shit up.

The only other story remotely as ridiculous is when Orson Welles' War of the Worlds adaptation for radio caused a panic across the country with many people thinking we were being invaded by Mars. This is that level of mass delusion. No, way more! Way way more!

Black women are seriously changing the world right now and this one wasn't even trying.
