Lisa is held to a different standard than other Blackpink members & even other idols/celebrities
I think this is an unpopular opinion because a lot of people feel the hate Lisa is getting justified (given how much hate has been directed at her on platforms like Twitter), and everyone feels their bias in Blackpink is the most victimized/ignored/unappreciated/etc.
I've seen many accusations thrown at Lisa these days with hate tweets directed at her getting 500K likes on Twitter. I think this is so sad because it's clear much of it is rooted in (internalized) misogyny, xenophobia & racism.
Some examples are:
Lisa is the only Blackpink member who has no sense of self because her solo efforts seem all over the place.
Yes, the songs released in her solo eras have been incredibly diverse and from different genres. Rosé's songs on her album seem more cohesive, and Jisoo's songs aren't so wildly different. But what Lisa is doing doesn't seem all that different from Jennie. Mantra is sonically and visually completely different from Zen from Love Hangover. Yet Lisa is the only one getting the 'throwing things at a wall to see what sticks' accusation. The whole alter ego concept IS that they're wildly different. It's intentional and meant to be different. Not saying Jennie should be getting hate either. Both girls should be applauded for experimenting and finding their sound.She can only lip-sync and always use a loud backing track.
This is based on her performances at events like Global Citizen Festival/Victoria's Secret fashion show. If anyone bothered to watch, it's clear that other performers at the events also used very loud backing track, for example Doja at GCF or Tyla at VS show. To the same exact amount Lisa did, yet she's the only one getting scrutinized for it. This is despite the fact that fan videos clearly show that she's singing audibly to a live audience.She's only getting roles because of her rich boyfriend.
Not saying her dating rumors are confirmed, but in the assumption that she IS dating him - why are they not making the same accusation towards the other members? Is anyone saying Jisoo got Dior or Rosé got Tiffany ambassadorship because they're hanger-ons as Lisa's friends? Why are they acting like Lisa isn't one of the most popular idols in the world who could completely stand alone by herself? Did people accuse Jennie of sleeping with The Weeknd or Jisoo any of the producers for getting their acting roles? They're accusing Lisa of getting jobs all as a result of a man, even though it's made abundantly clear (multiple times) she had to audition for her White Lotus role SET IN HER OWN COUNTRY just like any of the other actors. She's accused of getting the Vanity Fair cover as a result of her boyfriend when there are multiple other actors on the very same cover with far less fame than her, but no one directed hate at them. Her acting has gotten rave reviews so far from her castmates & critics alike. Her inclusion generated so much hype for Vanity Fair, why wouldn't they want her? It all just seems so misogynistic.She's dumb, juvenile & infantile.
Yeah, she comes across as acting far younger than her age in English interviews (due to the aegyo behavior which I admit is quite grating) and not sounding very intelligent. Yet because she has a decent English accent, people seem to forget she's no where near fluent in English by her own admission. She doesn't sound eloquent in English the same way that Rosé or Jennie does because she never had the same English speaking experience they did. She never went to an international school. Her (step)dad is Swiss isn't fluent in English either so I doubt they were having the most sophisticated conversations. Speaking English enough to be understood (Lisa) & being fluent enough to be nuanced and culturally conversant (Rosé & Jennie) are 2 completely different things. Obviously she sounds less intelligent because she has to stick to simpler words and phrases in her 3rd language - anyone would. She's mocked for her Alter Ego 'profiles' sounding juvenile & although she obviously didn't write them, I'm sure she read/approve it and thought it sounded fine without detecting little nuances that make something corny to a native speaker. I doubt she's fluent enough to know what sounds 'cool' in a foreign language. Other idols/groups have done promo that are equally corny but no one gives them crap for it because they don't understand Korean. Likewise many have sounded far less fluent in English than Lisa on Western media, but somehow they're protected against xenophobia & racism while Lisa is mocked for it. She just seems to be judged by a different standard from everyone else and it's so frustrating to see.
