Don’t condemn Nicki Minaj for her vaccine blasphemy

Nicki Minaj weighed in on the coronavirus vaccine this week, and the world hasn’t been this relieved since Katy Perry peer-reviewed that swine flu research. For those even more cripplingly out of touch than I am, Minaj is a Trinidadian-American rapper best known for her filthy 2014 single ‘Anaconda.’ Real country anaconda, let me play with his rifle / Put his butt to sleep, now he calling me NyQuil, Minaj raps, and while that’s evidently considered TV-G by our woke censors, there are some things they simply can’t allow to be said.

So it was that anyone who wandered onto Twitter found Minaj staring down a mob. Her problems began when she announced that she wouldn’t be attending the posh Met Gala in New York because they had a vaccination requirement and she wasn’t vaccinated. She did say she might get the shots ‘once I feel I’ve done enough research’ and that she was ‘working on that now.’
