@@JC-yy8iv You can't cut and paste positivity and get pointed comments, but you can place shade out of context. Misdirected shade is still shade. Raja was venting her insecurities without emotional awareness, her comments would've cut regardless. That being said, the producers were negligent for not considering the hate and racism that exists in the queer community, predating the show. They should always take better care with POC narratives for this exact reason. Raja needed time to feel comfortable enough to open up about the insecurities that fueled that out of context 'shade'. But once she provided the 'emotional context' (something only she, not the show could provide), the non-racist viewers got it and fully empathized.

@@TruCentrinoTech if you think they can’t build negativity out of nothing, I think you’re underestimating what they do. They’ll literally just build a sentence out of other words and phrases. Like if they needed to portray you as annoyed by someone, maybe the other day you said “I’m so damn tired” and they use that and they go find an “of” and the other queen’s name from something else you said. And maybe you weren’t even annoyed by her at all! But then in the main footage they can also patch in a shot of you rolling your eyes and put it after she says something. The overwhelming majority of reaction shots are fake, even if they aren’t misleading, because there’s only one or two cameras at a given time. So if someone says something and you see four different queens faces reacting to it, those have to be taken from somewhere else, they aren’t rapidly swinging the camera back and forth in the split second it takes someone to make a face In the confessionals, anytime someone is talking and the video cuts to b-roll midsentence it’s to disguise the seams (because they’re much more obvious visually). If you start listening for it, you can hear the subtle changes in tone every time the camera cuts away from confessional. They literally build sentences from scratch. Which is why after season 3 they started making queens wear the same thing in all their confessionals, because tv audiences were getting more savvy and noticed queens changing clothes midsentence (I believe it was Raja that had the really egregious one everyone noticed)

@sonicthehedgegod Жыл бұрын
This! This also applies imo to say that saying someone got a villain edit does NOT imply that they weren't arguably a villain; case in point: Acid Betty. Acid Betty is well-known for being openly and unapologetically bitchy. She's a hardass and she knows it. She also got the villain edit; the edit CHOSE to play up what, by pretty much ALL accounts, was absolutely there in reality. I don't even think she would disagree; she seems to own being a bitch pretty well (and i live for it, frankly) and i'd also like to point out the inverse, of which there are many examples, but the two that jump to mind are violet chachki and sharon needles. Sharon is probably arguably more egregious, because her antagonistic behavior was WAY more serious than violet's, but she was outright using slurs against her castmates and being openly racist and none of this made the edit. and with violet, i've heard from a few different accounts that they had to edit the HELL out of that season to get her not to look super evil lmao (notice how she barely gets confessionals in the early episodes up until she gets the award for shadiest queen). this even extends to her pit stop episode with trixie, which according to trixie, had to be reshot TWICE so that violet wouldn't come accross as being super mean to the whole cast. (and on No Gorge she STILL complained about being depicted as "crazy" on the show for not liking michelle visage's "boy chest" comments, despite that it didnt even come across as THAT bad, even bringing to attention something about the show's judging that had bothered a lot of people, me included, for a LONG time)

I just want to add something that Willam mentioned on the Race Chaser podcast they have with Alaska - Rajah has spent 750 dollars to prepare herself for AS6 and we saw many stellar looks from her. As Willam said - this is pure talent. You know some queens spend like 20-30K $ or even more to look as presentable and stunning as Rajah did. Also, on personal level, I really sympathize with Rajah, since I still have moments in life that make me hate or call out people, yet, at the end of the date it is all internal issues and projecting them outwards, towards people, no matter if they deserve it or not. It is very endearing to see the edit Rajah got on AS6, because she is a good person, but had this pain and struggle within her. Don't judge the book by its cover and support queens!

I think Rajah's storyline on s11 is also one of the worst in the series and closest to a typical reality tv "villain" edit that I've seen on drag race. Despite the very glaring issues of the show, I have typically been inclined to say that the fandom is worse than the show because production usually creates a rounded, three-dimensional villain. Roxxxy, Jaremi (on both seasons) and the Vixen all had moments of great success or where they were shown to be in the right, and their anger towards the "heroes" of the season had been framed as a reaction to insecurities and trauma. But with Rajah, until the reunion, her vulnerability is consistently shown as bitterness and jealousy, and the judges were unfairly critical of her and never gave her a fair shot. It's the only time a drag race villain edit seemed just as manipulative and cruel as reality shows like ANTM or the Glee Project.

YOU DO NOT HAVE THE GREATEST FANBASE. You don't even have a GOOD fanbase. I'm sorry to say, but Drag Race has one of the most terrible, garbage fanbases in the world. Anyone who denies it is part of the problem and is basically the TV fan equivalent of #NotAllMen. If you are a decent person, you should be able to recognise and admit that the fanbase is bad when anyone with an even kind of bad edit is sent literal death threats, racism, homophobia, transphobia, etc. Unless a contestant said they support the triple K or something equally deplorable (which, to my knowledge, the only person who even came close to that was SP on s12), there is NO EXCUSE for sending death threats. I have been watching since S5 was on air (started from S1 though, so only saw S6 onwards live) and not a single hated queen has ever felt like they deserved the hate they got from the show. NOT ONE.

When the other half of the fandom is sending racism and hate to ANYONE over "you were a bit bitchy on this tv show", that is not a good fandom. The actions of the good fans no longer matters. Especially when 90% of the time when you bring it up, the ""good"" side of the fandom feels the need to do exactly this: belittle the problem by saying things like "but there are good fans too!"

Most fans probably don't go around thinking, "I don't want this queen to win because she's ", it shows through how quickly they turn on a queen or how quick they are to call them out in comparison to other queens.

Also legit Yanis was an asshole. The OP is really correct about the dichotomy between Travis and Yanis. Travis wants the queens to succeed and lifts them up, Yanis was/is all about the drama and competition (like other choreographers too). Ultimately it servers the show better to have choreographers that bring out the best in the queens rather than dig into insecurities.

Many Queens of color have used their "bitchness" as a positive, Bianca del Rio, Niamoi smalls, Roxxy Andrews, Yvie Oddly, and the fans love them for it. Whereas darker skin black Queens like Rahjah, the Vixen, Akira, and Silky are held to a much higher standard.

I sometimes follow seasons by watching commentary, recaps etc without actually watching the season.

So the reality of how she actually behaved really shocked me that people gave her the benefit of the doubt so much regarding her intentions… and we all know why

I ended this video in tears. Thinking of how much I disliked Rajah before because I loved Yvie. And then thinking of how I was screaming for Rajah to win in All Stars 6. The ways in which our perceptions of others can be manipulated is powerful. I remember when Rajah won the Drag Tots episode and said “if they tell you you off beat, tell ‘em, “you just can’t hear my music.”” And I cried when she said that. It was as if I was watching a completely different person on the screen. Someone I directly identified with. Someone talented and intelligent and kind. And that was where I realized I allowed the show to make me almost actually hate someone like me. hate myself, in a way. And now I am so happy that she’s getting all she deserves and Silky and A’keria. And and and. Well done although, we need to talk about All Stats 6 and why we need more of that. I never cried watching a reality show so much.

I'm not even finished with this but I just have to stop and say how much we NEEDED this type of dissection. I genuinely hope Ra'jah sees this video and is in some way comforted by the fact that we can see exactly what the edit is doing and realizes how frustrated so many true fans are at witnessing this type of unfair storytelling, which (let's be real) definitely seems to target the black queens more often. While I feel like Yvie deserved the win that season, I'm baffled at the lack of accountability she was expected to have when she's the one who seemed to genuinely enjoy kicking people when they were down.

I haven't seen AS6, so I'm yet to see this more positive outcome Ra'Jah gets there you've talked about. I'm so happy to know she got the opportunity to shine and show herself as the charming, funny and creative person she's always been, rather than the one note so called "villain", coming for your faves and whatever. As you said, context is important and the lack of it in the portrayal of, not a fictional character, but a real person with real feelings will always come out as incomplete and how it has been the case, misleading. I think neglecting that very context of, say, mental health related issues, frustration and pressure and also racism within the community and fandom is not only irresponsible, but malicious, especially when it's done that way to push a narrative of drama and resentment.. its was very clever, compassionate and humane for Plastique to be able to see that so I admire her for that, honestly. And I very much agree with you on thinking no queen should go home without a good moment, I mean, come on, all of them are potentially capable of providing that and sharing what their take of this art form is. Back in the day, Ra'Jah may not have been my favorite queen of the cast, the edit may have not helped with that, I guess, but you could see the passion and the talent regardless, and she's one of the Queens I think the most of, primarily because of how she was presented on her season and how representation works as a whole, precisely lol.. and on top of that, an opinion or perspective of something can change when presented more information, even if it is a relatively "old" topic, e.g. I recently learnt some context on the "look at how orange you look, girl" which completely changed the way I saw that moment: back in the day queens with darker skin tones had to apply a lot of orange powder in order to be able to add some depth to their make up, giving that the repertoire make up brands provided was very much tilted towards white people and therefore black people had less to work with. Then, providing more information and perspective is important, especially when it comes to addressing racism or any topic that has the need to be spoken about. Your video does that with great care and grace, it is magnificent. Can't wait to see more like this in the future.🥰

There's a thing a former coworker (that actually exposed me to drag race) said to me when he saw his fave singer was in drama and her fans and haters were going at it: "Yeah, I love her, she's a queen and her music's great, but I don't fuckin know her. She doesn't know me. If I get in drama, is /she/ going to defend me? No, so why the fuck should I?" And that's always stuck with me when it came down to people developing parasocial relationships with their faves. I know that people will always get attached to characters and people, that's a reason we watch TV, but when it comes down to it, you don't know them. That's why I never got mad at Phi Phi O'Hara during s4, or Roxxxy Andrews during s5, or Ra'Jah during s11. Hell, I LOVED Ra'Jah during s11. The edit did make her out to be a messy, delusional queen but I was enamored with her when she came for Yvie for her smell lol, and Yvie was my favorite during season 11! Like come on... ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED? It's reality TV. People have to spend months locked up in a hotel, put on drag in the wee hours of the morning, work 12 hour shifts, and be videotaped throughout their time filming (obviously). They probably had to cut hundreds of hours from the edit we'll never get to see. People are gonna end up being messy or production will, as per their profession, PRODUCE messy moments to get those "crazy TV moments". The Tamisha vs Kandy fight won them an EMMY for chrissake! Just... Don't be a racist asshole. Anyway, great video and analysis! Looking forward to the next video!
