Pop star Billie Eilish took to Instagram on Saturday, after rioters set cities across the country on fire, and ranted about “white privilege,” telling white people that “you are privileged whether you like it or not,” and claiming that black people get killed “just for being black.”
The singer’s rant came after the fourth consecutive day of protests over the death of George Floyd — protests which have devolved into riots that have included looting, buildings being set on fire, businesses destroyed, the White House going on lockdown, and people being beaten and killed.
Meanwhile — after admittedly having taken the time to “think through” what to say about recent occurrences — the “Bad Guy” singer took to social media to declare her distaste for the slogan, “All Lives Matter.”
“I HAVE AN ENORMOUS PLATFORM AND I TRY REALLY HARD TO BE RESPECTFUL AND TAKE TIME TO THINK THROUGH WHAT I SAY AND HOW I SAY IT — BUT HOLY FUCKING SHIT IM JUST GONNA START TALKING,” began the 18-year old Eilish.
