10 year anniverary of Tupac Shakur's death

[Tangled Web]

Actually it's more Tupac's fans that bother me. They lift him up to Saint status and use their bs excuses that the only way to survive is by being a thug. Tupac and other rapers have brought about this way of thinking.

You do realise that you're being a total ****ing hypocrite when you criticize people for making a saint of Pac, when you're demonizing him, don't you?

I'm not demonizing him. I'm bringing him back down to who he really was.

Basically, he's treated by his fans the same way Elvis fans treat him. They view him as an entity, and in their eyes, maybe they both were. The fact that he's not forgotten after a decade proves that longevity of hip-hop in general, even if it has lost its way as of late.

Seriously, get over yourself.

You're not "bringing Tupac back down to reality", or something like that. You're trashing him because you've either misinterpreted his lyrics, or you're just relying on total misinformation about his activities. You're not some crusader removing the glitter and glitz mystique from Tupac and shattering the worldviews of his starry eyed admirers. You're just being kind of a dick.

I'm a dick for having a different opinion than you? ****, you have some issues then.

No, you're a dick for the way that you've presented your "arguments".

Duh.

No, you're a dick for the way that you've presented your "arguments".

Duh.

And you're NOT being a dick by continually insulting someone bashing [and by bashing, I mean stating the truth] your idol?
