Salon: Hair Petting Is Now Raaaaacist

Despite having watched, listened to, and read Lefties for a long, long time, and especially in the Age Of The Internet, their bat guano insane thoughts still manage to be bat guano insane, especially when someone is Offended. And one of the best places to go now for bat guano insanity is Salon. Today’s outrage is brought to us by Anna Silman, their deputy entertainment editor

Taylor Swift is really this clueless: The Weeknd details deeply uncomfortable hair-petting incident

Asking a celebrity interview subject about his/her relationship to Taylor Swift has become a journalistic rite of passage as of late, and we recently got an interesting anecdote about America’s favorite leggy, belly button-less Squad Leader in a new Rolling Stone profile of Abel Tesfaye, aka The Weeknd.

The Weeknd explained that he met Taylor Swift at Sam Smith’s Grammy party this February (at “an $80 million mansion in Bel-Air,” naturally). After telling him how much she loved his music, a presumably drunk Swift pulled the quintessential clueless white person move and started stroking his Basquiat-inspired ‘do.

“I think she was just drawn to it — she must have been a little gone off a few drinks,” The Weeknd explained. “And of course I’m not going to be like, ‘Hey, can you stop?’ I mean, it felt good! But when she started petting my hair, that’s when I was like, ‘I definitely need a drink.’”

Oh Tay, no. Just no. Anyone else ready for that Taylor Swift hiatus to start already?

Got that? She stroked his hair!!!!!!! A white person move!!!!! Hence, racism!!!!

    The Weeknd seemed to rather enjoy the stroking from a drunk, pretty girl.

    So you claim that the deputy entertainment editor for Salon speaks for all liberals. We’ll keep that in mind the next time Rush, Alex Jones, Sarah P., jimhoft, Glenn, Bachmann or Gohmert open their mouths.

    Cat 5 hurricane hits !!!
    But not really news. Because it is not hitting where white people live so it doesn’t really count as a hurricane

    And yet after the hurricane Americans of all colors will donate aid, head to Mexico to help and do whatever we can to make the situation better.

    So what are your plans when Patricia hits john? Stay at home, drink beer and talk about how terrible it is that you as a white person really don’t care when a hurricane hits?

    Actions speak louder than words john.

    John,
    Are you aware that the hurricane suddenly developed over 24 hours? I think not. What makes people concerned about something is knowledge of the event and that is only unfolding this am. But, you are clearly a bigot and frame things in a very distorted manner. Why don’t you and Jeff try growing up.
