Chris Crocker, who rose to Internet fame for his 2007 ‘Leave Britney Alone!’ YouTube video (which is edging toward 48 million views), has released a new video entitled ‘Leave RuPaul Alone’ to address the ongoing ‘Tranny’ debate between RuPaul and Carmen Carrera.
Watch the video below.
Chris opens up the video by addressing the truth of the situation as it stands right now: “I’m realizing this topic is not dying down anytime soon. Until we see Lavern Cox, Carmen Carrera, RuPaul, and TS Madison, and all the girls sitting on a live panel, I don’t think this is going to end any time soon, and I don’t see it having a pretty ending.”
Later in the video, he makes a point of emphasizing the fact that “the people who will call you a tranny, in a derogatory way, already don’t like you, so, when you say you don’t like it, you’re giving them fuel,” and continues, “The people who don’t already like you will call you worse than that, and they are not worried about pleasing you. Please understand that when you pick a fight with an ally, not just an ally, a member, a huge Victoria’s positive spirit like RuPaul, and make them an enemy, the gay community is eating itself alive.”
How about we take this to the next level?

Tell it like it is! The damage being done in all this brouhaha is no win situation. It will simply leave frustration and hard feelings in its wake . . . and NO resolution.
