I´m starting to feel sad about May...I probably don´t have reasons for it, but it seems everything she tries backfires.wasn´t she against brexit in the beginning?

It is not as strong as always because 20 years ago people was murdered because of terrorism and terrorist supporters were creating havoc every weaking burning cars and breaking windows in your cities. If suddenly those old ghosts were awake again I would be as suspicious as I am about Catalonia, were independtists were a mere residue after DECADES of understanding with Madrid.
All very well crafted during the most difficult years in recent history in Spain.
And to understand what I mean, just try to read the news about the immigration in Spain recently. Since cunt Alberto Casado got in the People's Party here in Spain, suddenly immigration is an issue. just before, it wasn't and nobody was worried about it. Now, it is not only an issue, but there's an extremist party scaring everyone as if we were having some invasion of radicals or something. All perfectly crafted to get votes and confuse the already half-retarded population
Alberto Casado?? you have mixed pablo casado and albert rivera! jesus! that´s scary!
And I know that it´s not the topic, but just to finish (here) what I /we have said before: the strategy has changed in the basque country, and now the dirty work is done by the catalonians and we are the good guys, just the opposite of what happened during the 80´s-90´s.But yesterday for example there was a massive march in bilbao in favour of the prisoners being closer/out of the prisons (+80.000 people).you won´t see it anywhere in spanish news.
that said, this brexit thing is becoming too complicated.So if theresa´s idea is not going to happen, is the referendum happning again? because that´s what I´ve just heard on the radio.It doesn´t really make sense, maybe is that her wish?

In the years since the riots occurred, the death of gay icon Judy Garland earlier in the week on June 22, 1969 has been attributed as a significant factor in the riots, but no participants in Saturday morning's demonstrations recall Garland's name being discussed. No print accounts of the riots by reliable sources cite Garland as a reason for the riot, although one sarcastic account by a heterosexual publication suggested it. (Carter, p. 260.) Although Sylvia Rivera recalls she was saddened and amazed by the turnout at Garland's funeral on Friday, June 27, she said that she did not feel like going out much but changed her mind later. (Duberman, pp. 190–191.) Bob Kohler used to talk to the homeless youth in Sheridan Square, and said, "When people talk about Judy Garland's death having anything much to do with the riot, that makes me crazy. The street kids faced death every day. They had nothing to lose. And they couldn't have cared less about Judy. We're talking about kids who were fourteen, fifteen, sixteen. Judy Garland was the middle-aged darling of the middle-class gays. I get upset about this because it trivializes the whole thing." Deitcher, David (ed.) (1995). The Question of Equality: Lesbian and Gay Politics in America Since Stonewall. Scribner. ISBN 0-684-80030-6.

Yes!! I LOVE this song and always have from day one. I still say Madonna should do a more rock oriented album. It's the only major genre she hasn't really fully explored on record. I don't mean a full on Led Zep rock album either, I mean a Madonna-ized "pop/rock" album.
I don´t wnat her to do a Sheryl crowish album...but I would like her to have a few songs , yes, pop-rock inspired.Well, I guess we have that in Music

it may not be the place to ask this...but is it true that the stonewall riots were related to judy garland´s dead? I mean, that people were angrier and more sad because of her passing, and that it made them go aganst the people that were fighting against them?

I told this theory a couple of times before. In 2012 Davos forum concluded that social unrest against governments in Europe and other parts of the world was the biggest danger and new measures should be decided. Now think of what has happened in the EU since then and how all unrest is focused on minorities, hate against other folks instead of rich elites...
this is classic in human behaviour: we need hour enemies, and easier to blame a person or a group of people, with faces and that we can recognize, instead of the banks, the powers that we don´t know about...

It sounds very conspiracy but I feel a patron everywhere. In Spain, in the middle of the biggest crisis with 25% of unemployment, an old and forgotten independence movement arises and now a far right party grows in response?????? Nobody ever comments on the 75 billion euro that the Government gave to the banks and they refuse to give back!!!!!
In Bulgaria, as there are no immigrants, alk eyes turn against gays and women rights.
Every country has a story about these past 5 or 6 years.
I guess you are talking about catalonia, because our independence movement continues as strong as always, and it´s always been there, although it may not be on the news all the time,believe me if I tell you that PNV´s or BIldu´s ideal is an independent basque country.this time seems that a part of the catalonian people are doing the dirty work while these two political parties are playing other game: pnv the part that CIU played during the 80´s-90´s, the good guys, the reasonable ones. And Bildu has a lot of internal work to do after ETA´s disappearence. I guess there will be an internal separation ala CUP-Esquerra...meanwhile PP is disappearing in this part of the basque country, and PSOE is still there, but the only "all pro spain" political party that seems to be doing good-new things is Podemos...

About the demonstrations it worries me that people are not asking for higher wages but for lower taxes. If Europe is a success in social protection is thanks to the taxes. The problem is firms trying to be more competitive by lowering wages.
It worries me because far right parties always promise lower taxes because they aim for cuts in social protection.
but aren´t these taxes mostly affection middle class and lower classes?

bad people, really bad peole. ALthough macron with the black guys...mmmmmm

In andalucia a lot of people have decided not to vote. Psoe´s corruption has made a lot of damage to the people.The problem with the Eres has been huge, even bigger than the one that the PP has had.I don´t understatimate any of the things that we have mentioned before, but I think the politicians and the journalists are forgetting about the shit the biggest political party of that zone has had

trying to think who has been scrutinized for their age before Madonna... I am sure a lot of women in music and film have but they kind of disappeared altogether because of how bad ageism was.... or they did the roles of ancient hags (Bette Davis was 54 at the time she did What Ever Happened to Baby Jane, that's how 50 was perceived as back then..!)... but then in the 80's Tina Turner reached the height of her fame in her mid 40's and her nickname was The Grandma of Rock'n'roll .... LOL, and she was still a young woman... but in her case, she wasn't attacked for performing in a mini dress, she was just perceived as a grandma and an old lady but she had the respect of the public.
yes! it was something positive! like wow! look at her, she is old but look at her!

I am so, so afraid. I live in Rio de Janeiro, am an actor and writer and he is about to take down the Ministry of Culture. I'm also gay and there has been lot's of us already being beaten on the streets.
I don't want to leave my house. I'm scared, so scared. Thinking of going to Urugay, Portugal or France. My mom and I, we cannot stay here. This really might be the end of an era of people feeling proud of who they are.
I´m so sorry to read this.this is so sad...

Someone here assumes there will be a video because she had her roots touched up, lol
i would be surprised if there were a single & video but doubtful.
the song also features Cardi B, that´s her moment: I´m sure it will have a video!

I'm happy that she's trying out new music genre and not stucking in the same old genre or repeating the same formula forever like Pariah.
It may sound shit to some but these are the shit that appeals the current audience.
this song it´s an ok album track, but I don´t really think is single material. It doesn´t sound as shit to me, but if it wasn´´madonna in it, I wouldn´t pay a euro for it.I hope she doesnñt follow this trend in her album, and if that means I´m stuck in the past...it´s ok to me, that past has made her the queen. But about appealing to the current audience, I, well, I bet they are streaming the song because of the rapper and MIA more than because of madonna.
And it´s not the rythm, the melody, the rappers...it´s the voice! I want to hear it in all its glory

she should.
and of course, my sympathy for her is less because of her ideas-acts and more because the rest of the politicians are also acting as spoiled children
