This may be a late-coming topic but nonetheless one I wanted to throw out there to see what other people think.
I'm sure you all saw Eminem's slam poetry-style cypher attack on Trump at the BET Awards last November, which instantly went viral. I'd like to draw attention to a bar near the end:
"Ball up a fist,
And keep that sh*t balled (bald),
Like Donald the b**ch."
Eminem somehow still has millions of loyal subjects who take his thoughts for gospel, his words as law, and by targeting Trump's follicle hardships - the lowest of blows - he painted hair loss as something that sufferers should be mocked about and ridiculed over; or, worse, like it was some kind of evil trait, the mark of a bad apple.
We can't all maintain a Norwood 1 well into our mid-forties like you, Eminem. Only the bald know the brutality of baldness. If Eminem could feel the inexorable sting that hairloss can wreak on a man's soul he would never pull that sword from its sheath, for it pierces deeper than any other.
It's become a carnal sin in the cultural psyche to insult someone over things like weight, sexual preference, gender choice and so on, but hair loss remains the last acceptable cheap source of undiminishing ammo to imbecilic swine. No cul-de-sac rises up in the dreary distance along the rancid road of the mainstream mindset.
Then again this attack comes from someone whose brain is so horribly splintered from years of pharmaceutical abuse that he's putting out songs with lines like "I gotta meet her like a taxi."
