The only people who turned up to the much-hyped Anti-Beyonce rally in New York? Fans, one of whom waved a placard asking “Where yall at?”
New York magazine’s The Cut reported a grand total of three anti-Beyonce protesters, including a man named Ariel Kohane who told reporters he thought the song “Formation” was a call for violence against police.
Early Tuesday a tweet from “Proud of the Blues” account called on protesters to attend.
Conservatives tried to organize the event, at NFL headquarters, to protest Beyonce’s recent performance at the Super Bowl. Featuring black-clad dancers in vaguely-military outfits (and followed-up by a music video portraying police violence against minorities) it led to complaints she was being “divisive” and “the real racist.”
But so few turned up to support the complaints yesterday that it’s became an embarrassment to those who had promoted the event online.
Here’s Saturday Night Live poking fun at white folks dealing badly with getting woke by the new song:
