Even if she were able to 'pass as white' that doesn't mean she hasn't encountered prejudice or discrimination of some kind. But of course you are going to dismiss Charli because she doesn't stand for what you think she should stand for.

No, I can make this claim based on life experience. Based on my family members experiences as well. It's been this way for years, and unfortunately looks like it'll always be this way. Do you not see what is going on in news media lately?
And no one is saying she hasn't experienced hardship. We ALL do. What I'm saying is that she has certain privileges that others don't. Just as males have certain privileges that females don't have (glass ceiling, etc). Just as straight people don't have the same challenges as LGBTQ community. It's life, it's the way it is.
But discussing these things, we bring attention to it. And that's all Azealia, and a few of us in this thread, are really trying to do.
