Wait what did Carlos Santana do?

[–] [email protected] 19 points 7 months ago

In the middle of one of his concerts last summer he pulled out this gem:

“When God made you and me — before we came out of the womb, you know who you are and what you are. Later on, when you grow out of it, you see things, and you start believing that you could be something that sounds good, but you know it ain’t right. Because a woman is a woman and a man is a man. That’s it. Whatever you wanna do in the closet, that’s your business. I’m OK with that.”

The clip ends with Santana lining one hand behind the other, and adding that he was “Like this with my brother Dave Chappelle.”

Like, if you don't like trans people I guess you do you, I doubt anybody's gonna change your mind especially at his age. But, why exactly do you need to get on stage and disparage a group of people like that?
