omg thank you for this. i had sort of eyerolled at the paragraph about the asian subtitles, but by that point i'd already read so many stupid comments from people who were taking "one piece" literally as some kind of non-ironic reference to her feeling sexually harassed, aka a "piece", and the whole thing was so faily i sort of drew blinders over it. and then you came along and wrote this! and now i am like OH OI VEY, I DID NOT SEE ANY OF THESE THINGS IN THAT ARTICLE. it is true. i actually love the part that i quoted in the post i made about gaga last night, and i think it is fantastic that people are connecting dots all over the place with regard to her, in that article and elsewhere; i think part of this article's flaw is that it was written in a HURRY, i think it was one of the first to come out and it felt very hasty, very play-by-play. And there's so much to parse in the Telephone video, both A+++ and FFFFFF, lol, that you *can't* be smug and pedantic about your first, hastily drawn conclusions. Especially when as you just pointed out, your conclusions kinda suck.
