Google ne cesse de nous surprendre. Cette fois, si vous tapez « Gay » dans la barre de recherche Google, vous verrez le champs s’habiller aux couleurs de l’arc-en-ciel, symbole gay, lesbien, travesti et transsexuel. C’est juste un petit détail, mais c’est avec ce genre de clin d’œil que Google parvient à séduire les Internautes, TOUS les internautes. C’est peut-être mercantile, à un moment Google a bien collaboré avec la Chine pour filtrer ses contenus, mais ils sont revenus sur cette décision. Je pense qu’aujourd’hui, Google a choisi de militer pour un Internet plus libre, plus ouvert et plus tolérant à un moment où les états américains discutent d’une loi autorisant le mariage homosexuel.

This is the kind of mème which gives me hope in mankind. Someone used the song Fuck You by Lilly Allen and organised a big huge collab video called The Big Fat Gay Collab. As the author says :

« I wanted to make something light hearted and funny for the victims of gay hate, to teach them to brush off the hate and stand strong and confident as who they are. You’re not alone! » [YouTube]

So why did I post this video ? First, because I like collab vids (Do you remember the music video of Sour ?). Secondly, because it is starting to be a mème and the song becomes a Gay and lesbian and transvestite and transgender anthem. Thirdly, because I want to tell all the minorities suffering from hatred that I’m with them. And, also because saying fuck you and giving the finger, makes me feel better.

Just in case you want to know the lyrics, here they are :

Look inside, look inside your tiny mind
and look a bit harder
cause were so uninspired
so sick and tired
of all the hatred you harbor

so you say its not okay to be gay
well I think youre just evil
youre just some racist who cant tie my laces
youre point of view is medieval

Fuck you, fuck you very very much
cause we hate what you do
and we hate your whole crew
so please dont stay in touch

fuck you, fuck you very very much
cause your words dont translate
and its getting quite late
so please dont stay in touch

do you get, do you get a little kick out of being small-minded?
you want to be like your father
its approval youre after
well thats not how youll find it

do you, do you really enjoy living a life thats so hateful
cause theres a hole where your soul should be
youre losing control of it
and its really distasteful

Fuck you, fuck you very very much
cause we hate what you do
and we hate your whole crew
so please dont stay in touch

Fuck you, fuck you very very much
cause your words dont translate
and its getting quite late
so please dont stay in touch

Look inside, look inside your tiny mind
and look a bit harder
cause were so uninspired
so sick and tired
of all the hatred you harbor

Fuck you, fuck you very very much
cause we hate what you do
and we hate your whole crew
so please dont stay in touch

Fuck you, fuck you very very much
cause your words dont translate
and its getting quite late
so please dont stay in touch

La chanson Fuck You de Lilly Allen est devenu une sorte d’hymne pour les minorités (gay, lesbien, travesti et transexuel et des autres minorités) qui souffrent de la violence verbale, physique ou psychologique.   Cette vidéo les encourage  à tenir bon et à positiver. Initiative que je soutiens.
