Last weekend, one of the celebrities that we saw plenty of photos and videos of at the Women’s March in New York City was none other than pop icon Rihanna, who was without entourage or security, dancing in the street alongside fellow women protesting Donald Trump‘s threat to remove their rights to access medical services (primarily abortion).

Days later, she tweeted about Trump‘s ban on Muslim people entering the US, calling the President an “immoral pig”:

Disgusted! The news is devastating! America is being ruined right before our eyes! What an immoral pig you have to be to implement such BS!!

Today, the extremely vocal and oft-erratic Azealia Banks has posted an image to Instagram about RiRi, implying that these issues are none of her business due to the fact that she immigrated to the US from her home in Barbados:

You don’t get to show up in another man’s country, kill his young , his wives, ruin his home and think a peace talk Is going to be the end of it. ITS NOT. There’s absolutely no way to end this war but to finish it ourselves. It’s TERRIBLE, do I agree with it , NO, do I personally like what’s happening , NO! But I can say that as an American who enjoys her safety and overall ability to maintain a certain level of ignorance as pertains to the world outside of our borders , I am 100% shook about open borders and would be reallllllllllllly scared for my self and my family if any parts of that war began to become real on this soil. I like my life the way it is. IM JUST A YOUNG FEMALE RAPPER TRYING TO MAKE MY PAY, I personally didn’t sign up for any of this extra shit and I refuse to involve myself in matters that don’t have anything to do with the African American populace. This is an extension of the crusades , I was in west Africa killing chickens and being primitive while y’all was over there arguing about who the savior is. Please miss me with all of this shit. Pass me a chicken and leave me the fuck alone !

Banks says that celebrities are “stir[ring] the public” and need to “shut up and sit down”. She says in her caption,

“There’s absolutely no way to end this war but to finish it ourselves. It’s TERRIBLE, do I agree with it , NO, do I personally like what’s happening , NO! But I can say that as an American who enjoys her safety and overall ability to maintain a certain level of ignorance as pertains to the world outside of our borders , I am 100% shook about open borders and would be reallllllllllllly scared for my self and my family if any parts of that war began to become real on this soil.

I like my life the way it is.”

She ends in yet another rant about sacrificing chickens, which is apparently a very important hobby of hers now:

“I was in west Africa killing chickens and being primitive while y’all was over there arguing about who the saviour is.

Please miss me with all of this shit. Pass me a chicken and leave me the fuck alone !”

Up with this bizarre and poorly-thought-out attack, Rihanna will not put – she responded on Instagram this morning, saying of Banks:

the face you make when you a immigrant ???? #stayawayfromthechickens #iheartnuggets #saveourhens.
