So if you didn't know, Lizzo got some backlash over a word that she used that was offensive to the disabled community and her response to that was to issue an apology. And then she also changed the lyric on the song and is going to release a new version. I feel like this is an important conversation to have. We live in a time now where everyone has a platform to express what affects them and how it affects them. And it's also important that when people tell us something, offends them to believe them, I'm all for that. 100%. I don't want this post to get misconstrued as me calling people too sensitive and all that because I hate when people say that. But this post isn't about the offensiveness of the word. I want to focus more on the changing the lyrics. I don't think it 100% applies to this specific situation, but this situation did bring up for me that I hope it doesn't get to the point where anytime anyone gets offended from art that there's backlash and then the art changes some topics that art brings up are uncomfortable and can be offensive, but it's still a necessary thing to do to bring up certain conversations and bring change this song wasn't necessarily that but that's my only concern about the idea of backlash changing lyrics
