What many people don’t realize is that the Only Lyric Video is just a dictatorship not a Hitler glorification video. Hitler’s regime was a TYPE of dictatorship but not the only kind. What people are missing is that today we have dictatorships occurring in Russia, North Korea and other places that look JUST like the one in the video. Nicki isn’t going out of her way to make a Hitler reference. I repeat, NICKI IS NOT MAKING A HITLER REFERENCE.
YMCMB’s colors have always been red, the symbol used in the video is YMCMB’s logo not something made up conveniently for the video. Nothing was intentionally made or forced to make Hitler references. It’s literally just a dictatorship being depicted to show how Nicki, Lil Wayne and Drake run the country (that is rap music) with an iron fist. Stop letting over simplified things that media promotes (like any mainstream dictatorship is a Hitler reference because that’s the most popular or known dictatorship so people can relate to it instantly aka a trope) brainwash you into jumping conclusions.
The blatant fact remains that nothing in that video specifically references Hitler. That’s just an assumption using tropes (one more time if you haven’t caught on yet) and laziness. You don’t want to actually understand the video, the song or the culture that is rap so it’s easier to just leap a conclusion after one time watching it.
Focus your efforts and paragraphs into learning more about REAL dictatorships occurring in our world today. Stop finding ways to hate on popular musicians for quick reblogs, RTs, likes and online relevance (by being a faux social justice warrior as if you’re actually changing the world by hating Nicki Minaj) and actually educate yourself on real issues going on in our world today.
