That escalated QUICKLY! Lefties RAGE at Lady Gaga for starting #ThisIsNotUs tag after #Charlottesville
After the violence in Charlottesville, Va. yesterday, where dozens of people were injured and one woman lost her life, Lady Gaga took to social media in hopes of inspiring people to tweet positive messages with the hashtags #BeKind and #ThisIsNotUs.
I know we are not created to hate each other, but to help & love. Use hashtag #BeKind #ThisIsNotUS to tweet positive messages. #Charlotte

Nice idea, except it was Charlottesville, not Charlotte. *oops* Don’t think Gaga expected the level of hatred she, the people who used the tag or America itself would receive on these hashtags – what’s that saying about the road to Hell?
Check it out:
Using #ThisIsNotUS means ur REMOVING yourself from the problem instead of doing anything to fight it. Simply saying "ay its them not me."

Not sure that’s what Gaga was saying but you be you.
It only got worse:
Lady Gaga & white people using the hashtag #ThisIsNotUS is the perfect example of them acting like America wasn't built on white supremacy.

#ThisIsNotUs Yes it is. Always has been. Stop tweeting feel good hashtags and go fix this shit. It's not on us. It's on you.

#thisisnotus is bullshit. This IS us, this is our country, we need to own it and face it and fix it
