He has done taken lotsa many drugs.

I wish I hadn't clicked on that. The tranny that posted it is a moron. A lot of them seem to have a hatred for Ru since he made those comments about them a while back. They'll find any little indiscretion to drag him.

The Buzzfeed interview it comes from is harsh.

I love RuPaul. That quote IS a bit strange.

People have been getting into little mini uproars about it for a while now. Most people don't care, though.

I saw someone drowning. My instinct was to call for help. Silly instinct! I’ll pray on it and munch on these here Cheetos.

Maybe the guy in the water was waving, didja think of that?

Here’s RuPaul’s honest answer: I thought about saving him. Then I thought, that motherfucker owns a sailboat. What if he saw me drowning? Would he REALLY spend a dime dialing 911 to save a six and a half foot tall black queen? Bye, bitch. See you on the flipside.

RuPaul is cancelled.

That’s an older interview, but still a disturbing quote.

RuPaul let a guy die because he was white ?

This is probably a sign of what a fucked-up individual I am, but I was actually more triggered by the @DysphoriaQueen's profile than by the whole "RuPaul let a man drown" thing.

So much literal violence from a gay black man in his late 50s.

Why don’t you all write a list of the things you could have done to help others? Then you can talk about others.

Good on ya, Ru. Buck would NEVER have called 911 if he saw you capsize.

RuPaul is giving all trans a GRAND MAUL SEIZURE!!

If you disagree with them at all, you're transphobic and literally cancelled!!

by Anonymousreply 17May 27, 2019 11:05 PM

Ru’s popularity is extraordinarily unlikely, and that is part of what makes him special. I respect what he’s accomplished. But he’s achieved an Oprah savior reputation with his fans, and he encourages it by spouting off bromides about self love and “putting good energy out into the universe” or what have you. I think that he believes his hype.

R7, Marry me!

I think what bothers certain elements of the trans community is that they can’t shut Ru down. He also pushes back. A lot of people have gotten used to calling someone out on twitter and get an apology for their ignorance. Ru doesn’t do that. In his WTF interview he said the people criticizing him probably aren’t even trans. That they’re like 4 people living in their parents basements looking for things to complain about. When his network tried to apologize for him he wouldn’t have it. His show keeps going on. He’s as popular as he ever was. The mainstream media has not adopted the stance that he’s the enemy of the LGBT. Our culture is very polarized right now. It’s confusing when someone won’t adhere to every single part of the official progressive agenda and yet they can’t really accuse him of being a Nazi.

Willam already outed what a sociopath Ru is. He'll walk over a dead body to get ahead. He just drops people after he's used them, people who made him a star and are now dying. He's a sicko who thinks he's Oprah.

I think you mean with himself. Have you listened to him? He's insufferable. He thinks everything he says is profound. He's a cokehead.
