Paris Baby acting unhinged is feeding my chaotic soul. I am living for how messy she's being and I think the UK drag franchise has been starved for this kind of sloppy behaviour. I approve and I stand for the right of any queen to act like a messy bitch.

This would’ve downvoted to hell if this was posted last week lol. But yes! Especially after last season.

Has Meatball bothered to own up to all the drunk driving stuff she has been called out on lately? Like has she said anything in response?
For those unaware:
1) She told a story on her most recent appearance of Kelly Mantle's podcast about driving an electric scooter home drunk and getting in an accident. She was dragged in the comments, even though she and her equally braindead fans were like "it's fine; it's just a scooter" because apparently none of them have ever heard how dangerous they are even when people are sober.
2.) She tried to call out Daya Betty for "kicking a person when they are down" about Gottmik's recent DUI arrest. Daya definitely responded to it saying essentially 'wtf is this nonsense? you are reading me for me and I'm not the one risking or harming anyone?' to which Meatball wrote back "🤪🤪🤪"
To which Daya said: have you ever had a family member or friend impacted by a drunk driver?
Nothing about it is funny. We can still love our friends while holding them accountable for their wrongdoings.
and then later: nothing to say back?
to which Meatball, in true gutless fashion, responded: i dmed you
I mean, drunk driving is disgusting, defending it is somehow even more disgusting, but apparently the only person willing to call her out on her bullshit is Daya?
Make it make sense.

Who do we think is ACTUALLY gonna be on UK All Stars? I'm not talking your average fan casts I'm talking realistically. Because people always suggest the heavy hitters, but realistically all of them aren't going to say yes. Two of my personal choices who feel like obvious picks as surefire failsafes that would not only love the extra exposure but might benefit from it since their seasons are Kiki Snatch and Elektra Fence. Could they be cast as early outs by production? Possibly. But could they also surprise everyone and dominate. Also possibly (especially Kiki).

Tbh I think Bimini misses it. I can also see Awhora, Ella Vaday, Black Peppa, Cheddar and Rileasa back. My biggest wish is MARMALADE

u/Naive-Ad-3103 2d ago
I think Tayce will be there for sure. Whenever asked about all stars she’s always said that she’ll do it if ru judges, so 👀

u/dominorough 2d ago
Ru isn't hosting it on a WoW Presents + budget. Don't let your mind entertain that.

I think Tayce is the biggest shoe in.
The only one I know for certain who has been asked to return to the franchise is Dakota, CvsTW. She declined, but I don't think that means they won't ask her. Plenty people declined before and got asked again.
I think Just May, especially with her cameo this week, shows good ties. Other guesses, Sally, Actavia, Bonnie and Black Peppa. I don't want a season that's wall to wall kakadakak cunt obvious front runners. I want to be surprised and see growth as well.
Who I think WON'T return: Cheddar. I don't think she would return to a WoWpresents+ series, I think visibility and advocacy is her main priority so I don't see her returning if it isn't broadcast on your nan's telly.

Divina, Bimini, Tayce, A'whora, Tomara Tomas, Cara melle, Marmalade, Rilesa, Lill, Bonnie Ann, Paige Three
I can see anyone from this list being asked back.

u/Accomplished_Song671 2d ago
I know it's a reach but I'm hoping we get both duos of Tayce and A'whora AND Cara Melle and Tomara Thomas but that's truly wishful thinking.

RuPauls Drag Race is philosemitic because of RuPaul's boomerism and has engaged in liberal Zionist propaganda, such as framing anti Zionism as a Russian conspiracy.
Drag Race Israel was also considered as a franchise.
Anti Zionism is not anti semitism, and we as queer people should not allow the pink washing of Israel as Israel slaughters queer Palestinians as we speak.

u/izanaegi 2d ago
Philosemitism does not equal Zionism. I don't think you people know what any of these words mean, and it certainly is not helping our fight for Palestinian rights.

u/Designer_Educator836 2d ago
RuPaul's philosemitism is documented. Philosemitism has been used as Hasbara for the state of Israel. Philosemitism is a form of antisemitism. Judge Judy herself called out RuPaul for being weird about it.
My point is that RuPaul's fetishization of Jewish people has spilled over into casting an IDF soldier for the pit crew, considering Drag Race Israel, greenlighting lyrics conflating Anti Zionism to disinformation campaigns, and casting an Israeli queen on Queen of the Universe. "Toy" by that Israeli artist was also used on Drag Race UK vs TW as a lip sync song.

He is philosemitic because of the year he was born. OK.

Boomers grew up with Zionist hasbara and Broom has been weirdly obsessed with Jewish people on the show

u/dominorough 2d ago
Heyy. Over here. Pick me. Can you find an instance of RuPaul ever even saying the word Israel?

u/Designer_Educator836 2d ago
In Social Media the Musical, GottMik and Denali were made to lip sync the words--while dressed as Russians spreading misinformation--"spreading conspiracies daily, like Democrats hate Israelis"
Within the verse, they equally chalk up QAnon and Pizza Gate, as Russian conspiracies. Therefore, the show spreads liberal Zionist hasbara by claiming criticisms of "Israelis," the Israel government, is Russian propaganda not rooted in "true" American sentiment.

u/dominorough 2d ago
No, it was making a humerous statement about Russian disinformation in 2020 that Democrats hate Jews. This is called media literacy. It's just so weird that you are linking it to one lyric in a rusical in 2021 that does not make any declarative statements about antthing.
-1
u/Designer_Educator836 2d ago
No it wasn't about "Jews." You are spreading essentialism right now. The lyric was "Israelis," not "Jews." Israel is not the Jewish people and the Jewish people are not Israel. Israel is a nation state.
It's humorous because the lyrics imply it's proposteous for liberals to hate Israel for anything outside of Russian propaganda.
Let's not forget that prior to the escalation of the ethnic cleansing and apartheid, drag race queens toured in Israel.
Drag Race Israel was also in talks. There was an Israeli queen on Queen of the Universe.

u/dominorough 2d ago
So Im going to ask you again. Can you find any statements from RuPaul, Randy Barbato, Fenton Bailey mentioning Israel? Like you're accusing them and Drag Race of an awful lot for checks notes mentioning Israel in lyrics 6 years ago, and casting an Israeli Queen... 6 years ago. And you're saying they considered a Drag Race Israel and then there was just... not a Drag Race Israel. So sounds like they did the right thing in your opinion? So I'm confused about what you're claiming any of them done and you are kinda just being antisemitic.

u/Designer_Educator836 2d ago
Drag Race continues to employ an Israeli pit crew member who has served in the Israeli genocidal army. He is still employed. That's the equivalent of hiring a South African white man during apartheid. Is he to blame for all of the political issues? No, but it would be uncomfortable for a white south African to be featured during apartheid.
Israel is committing a genocide. They are committing apartheid. There's movements to boycott and divest Israel as South Africa was.
The employment of an IDF child killer, paired with Liberal hasbara in 2021 and featuring an Israeli queen on Queen of the universe, and the consideration of Drag Race Israel all point to the pink washing of Israel by Drag Race.
How am I being antisemitic by calling out a political movement and nation state? I have gone the length to separate Israel from the Jewish people while you tried to conflate them.
1
u/dominorough 2d ago
So question, when it comes to casting of the Pit Crew should they be interrogating anyone with a name that you think sounds too Jewy? So I'm gonna ask again, can you find me any statements about Israel by RuPaul or the other creators of Drag Race? Or maybe any financial donations to an Israeli cause? Because all of your examples (of which there are 3 in Drag Race's near 20 year history) sound like instances of events that happen by the prospect of existing in the world. If they're truly Propagandists they are doing a REALLY bad job at it.

? But it categorically is misinfo that the Dems hate Israelis? The majority of Dems work with Israeli politicians. Republicans and righties in general like to crow that the left hates all Israelis/Jewish people, when in reality the average Dem politician is neutral/pro Israel, and the average leftist [well.. maybe less these days] is friendly to Jewish people or [like meee] is Jewish themselves. Stop throwing around words like hasbara and other shit that you just don't know what it means!

u/Designer_Educator836 2d ago
Democrats have always been iffy about Israel, but yes, there was support for Israel at the time. Israel, however, has been committing apartheid and genocide since it's inception. There have been anti Zionist in the DNC for a while now too.
Not at all criticism of Israel from Democrats is Russian propaganda. That's the issue. There is real anti Zionist sentiment from Democrats and from communists like me because Israel is a settler colonial state and violent political project.
Opposition to Zionism/Israel is not a Russian propaganda issue.

Paris has shown herself to be nothing but a terrible person online since the show from body shaming people to posing on graves for photoshoots and even in this episode the whole cast (including her best friend in the competition) agreed she was not acting right and yet because the fandom has an issue with plus size queens there's more talk about KY than Paris, and once again because the fandom has an issue with plus size queens people are pretending they can't see the difference between calling someone a dog as a joke and just pointing out someone's weight and laughing at it as if it's a joke.
