Welcome to 2025, Snoop.
From one of the Related Articles :
“I was just caught off guard and had no answer for my grandsons. All my gay friends [know] what’s up, they been calling me with love,” Snoop Dogg wrote. “My bad for not knowing the answers for a 6 yr old 😳. Teach me how to learn I’m not perfect.”
Good on his friends for calling him in.
Whatever his reasons for “going woke”, I prefer to see this route to the JK Rowling route.
Yeah, if we can’t accept people changing their minds, then we will always lose everything every time.
This is exactly what we should be looking for…
Grandad says something bigoted.
Younger people educate grandad.
Grandad publicly acknowledges that he was wrong and gives others an opportunity for others to do the same?
How do you complain about that?
Preach.
When people come around we have to respect it. Some jokes along the way are cool too especially here which is practically offline (small circle of friends).
Hopefully we can all remember a stupid view we once had and if we apply the Lucky 10,000 concept we know that we happened to be challenged on it when we were young. Someone was older when they started to see things more equitably? Welcome to the light side!
this isn’t about love and acceptance. it’s about marketing lmao. snoop said some shit he knew would get him in the headlines and now he’s using that as an opportunity to plug his new TV show. he’s been doing this for decades. maybe lgbt people are tired of their struggles being exploited for a chance to sell eyeballs to advertisers?
Nothing is ever real
he does this shit all the time lol remember snoop lion? remember snoop quitting weed?
Snoop has always been extremely tactical in his decisions and statements. His image is carefully crafted and maintained and i agree with you 100%

Being black and LGBT is really hard, and if the black community doesn’t cancel him and maybe even listens, this is huge.
Bingo. This is literally playing life on insane difficulty. Anything that can help is a boon.
I just hope for yalls sake that he doesn’t go back on it
If he does it’s rinse and repeat. When it comes to individuals we can never give up on them.
People really need to cut people some slack. If this is genuine and I feel it is he’s learning. People are allowed to change.
Judge someone by not just their past but their potential.
Judge someone by not just their past but their potential.
A dual edged sword. I would moderate that by saying whether they strive to work toward actualization of that potential, within the means available or presented to them.
That’s exactly it. We can’t know he’s genuine until he’s taken actions we can look at to compare
Amen.
Whatever his reasons for “going woke”, I prefer to see this route to the JK Rowling route.
Yeah, mixed feelings, it’s kind of like when massive corporations go pinkwashing. Sure, it’s better than the alternative, but they’re not your friend and you can’t trust them.
lol covering his sexist ass for the sake of his profitability.
I lived long enough to watch gangsters turn into posers
Whenever I see Eminem im like “dude smile, you’re a 50 something billionaire, nobody thinks you’re hard”
That’s so true lol. My 10 year old daughter almost shit herself when I told her he’s literally a grandpa.
I lived long enough to watch gangsters turn into posers
Greed is a hell of a drug.
Frankly, it’s the most “gangster” thing he’s done in a while. Most gangsters are bigots. It’s a low education background
Most of them are “studio gangsters” who tell imaginary stories they just make up.
They were all just used and marketed by businessmen.
Honestly in this political climate, I’ll take it. He could have easily taken a hard right turn
He played at Trumps inaugural Crypto Ball.
You can’t turn much farther right than that.
I’m just trying to imagine Trump watching a Snoop Dogg performance and wondering what fresh hell he’s be dropped into. Pretty far from Ava Maria.
Drumpf was probably wondering why Snoop wasn’t singing YMCA
In Bo Burnham voice: His $27 8-packs weren’t selling very well, those sorts of problems.There is always something to critique, huh? I think it’s positive that he has changed his stance regarding LGBTQ+ and even made a children’s song spreading the message that love is love. We need more inclusion, acceptance and tolerance in this society.
If Snoop is smart enough to spread a positive message and earn money at the same time, then good for him. At least he is trying to spread positivity to the world.
All he saw was his bottom line dropping and backpedaled.
Did you forget the Trump event he played at? 😂
That’s not someone who has goodness in their heart. He’s an opportunist and business man who is more likely to end up heading events in Dubai with Dave Chappell over doing something meaningful to spite the oligarchs that are actively seeking to kill LGBTQ+ individuals.
and transphobia.
Anyone who has shilled for the fascist regime needs to do a lot of work to regain any kind of respect. If he’s not going to use his platform to unapologetically oppose Trump then he deserves none.
This is the kind of criticism I can get behind. Good on him for changing his view on this, but everything else is still problematic.
I hear he sucked Trump’s dick to play at the inauguration.
Many people are saying it
The best people
Everyone says it, Snoop sucked trump’s dick
And then he grabbed him by the pussy.
Maybe some people in his life have been trying to help him escape the MAGA mindset after he did those events for Trump.
Maybe it’s Maybelline.
Good on him for walking it back, but you have friends that are LGBT and you still felt comfortable saying that stuff? Snoop can get his bag elsewhere because I won’t support him again
meh knowing Snoop I’d take what he says with a grain of salt and see what sponsorships/deals he has coming up and if any are potentially backed or support the LGBTQ+ community
the mans opinions change based on where the cheques come from. If he did make this change in thought without any financial basis then good for him.
You realize this is the onion, right?
Except it’s literally not the onion
God damnit I bit an onion that wasn’t even there lol.
The source, A.V. Club, was founded as a sister company to The Onion, just not satirical. It was part of the same company until last year or so.
Well thanks for the benefit of the doubt. But I totally face planted and deserve it.
Either way, it’s maybe the perfect source to accidentally conflate with The Onion.
And the perfectly wrong community to do it lol
Such a beautiful, slow motion faceplant though, a 9 from the Russian judge.
Onions are pretty tasty 🤷♂️
Apparently lol. After his previous stances, I thought no way is it real. It’s like MTG fighting for the ACA. I was like, no fuckin way is this real. But 2025 yo. Everything is ridiculous, nothing is probable, everything is dangerous and wildly likely. Who fuckin knows at this point? I honestly wouldn’t be surprised by flying scorpions at this point. Like you keep assuming it can’t get worse but it always does. So fucking flying scorpions doesn’t sound that far fetched anymore.
Sign a strike card https://www.generalstrikeus.com/ and tell your friends, too.
P. S. Sorry, I reflexively posted this in my panicked desperation, but I don’t mean to hijack the thread like a bot. I think I’m just amped up for the protest today.
it seems MTG has a falling out with the rest of the gop for some time now, which is why shes fighting them now.
Nah she’s just opporunistic. She’s a populist above all.
Regardless of his actions I trust Snoop with absolutely nothing, he has no morals the only driving factor is money. Like I love some of his music but don’t take anything he says at face value; he will partner with both left wing and right wing at the same time just to get that little more cash
How far we have fallen that not being a terroristic bigot lunatic is considered left wing.
Snoop dog traded a actual lifetime of G credit away for a paycheck to sing and dance for a wannabe dictator.
I made a 90s playlist recently. Fully omitted snoop dog. He has some bangers but I’m good without him.
Did the same with Necro. Deleted him from my playlist because he is MAGA.
he thinks partnering martha stewart a rich white lady will make him okay with other whites.
Ay let’s not drag Martha into this, my girl did her time and never snitched. A real G lol
She legit has more street cred than snoop in my eyes.

I mean, I like that he very publicly walked back his homophobic remarks and tried to make amends. A lot of people look up to celebrities, so when they show people a good example, I am for it.
Especially since he worked with a queer organization to show that homosexuals are just regular people for an audience of children, this feels more than just an empty apology.
Didn’t you know that people can’t change and the worst thing they’ve done represents them no matter what they do
Ah, yes, I forgot. I’ll get my pitchfork.
only if hes not being disingenuous about, and not because of convenience or pr.
Sure, but the original issue was a comment and a personal choice in choosing media. Making an official retraction and appearing to try to educate people is an appropriate response to this.
If this was penance for a larger transgression, like funding an anti-LGBTQ cause, yeah this wouldn’t be enough.
Chances are, we will never know his intentions. If you ask me, I really don’t care about Snoop Dogg. However, I know a lot of people look up to celebrities like Snoop Dogg and would take his example to heart. In a sea of poor examples of behavior, I really like this.
This dude will do and say anything to stay relevant for even a second longer. I don’t believe you you bitch ass chihuahua
he couldve stayed relevant longer if he dint shill for trump.
But he’s still a Trump supporter, right?
Oh look, misogynist rap dude is an asshole. Big surprise.
a FAKE gangbanger too, acitng “HARD”
castrated Dogg, sukin trump tiny dick
bitch is ded
I will always give Snoop this; Man been with his wife through thick and thin. He got rich and famous, could have kicked her to the curb for a super model, or 10. Tells me he has some sort of moral core.
Is that sarcasm?
Nonetheless, I give him credit for staying married for as long as he did. It’s not like he left his wife while she had cancer.
That being said, he went right with ice cube. Fuck both.
Fuck him. He made his bed, he can lay in it. Fake ass poser.
