    While his take here is shitty, I think doing drugs and having sex with women for money is not something that warrants out right condemnation imo.

    His involvement in murder and assault, and the sexual assault and battery accusations are much more damming and legit reasons to shit on him though.

      it’s not condemnation, it’s pointing out hypocrisy.

        I don’t know if hypocrisy is the right term. Maybe in an extremely broad sense but then it starts to lose its meaning.

          the man has financed and produced lesbian pornos. i don’t think it’s that broad.

              i’m reading it as a dig on things that are indicative of his general demeanour and the way he has historically wished to be perceived. it’s not about smoking weed and banging hoes (both of which i must point out are illegal in most of the world still), it’s about being someone who hoes weeds and bangs smoke, and then drawing the line at a queer couple. it’s not “a person”, it’s specifically snoop.

              in that situation, him also having produced pornos lines up.

        If I had to choose between explaining how 2 women have a baby and explaining what “pimpin’ a ho” and “187 on an undercover cop” means, I know what I’d prefer.

      Broadly it might not be worthy of condemnation, but in the context of “child appropriate” it would seem to be way less appropriate than what he is complaining about.

        I think Snoop is being a dumbass here (like I did when he went to Trump’s inauguration party) but this is a bad argument. He didn’t make the music for young children.
