Petitions to Deport Nicki Minaj Gain Over 120,000 Signatures and Counting

Fans and detractors of the controversial rap star react to her embrace of far-right conservatism — and the calls for her deportation because of it

The petition, which was started on Change.org, has gained over 120,000 signatures in a matter of days. [1]

The petition's creator, who wishes to remain anonymous, stated that they started the petition because they were 'sick of Nicki Minaj's hate speech and divisive rhetoric.'

The petition's language is harsh, calling Minaj a 'hate-monger' and a 'racist.'

Minaj has been a polarizing figure in the music industry for years, known for her outspoken views on politics and social issues.

Some fans have come to her defense, arguing that she has the right to express her opinions and that the petition is an attempt to silence her.

Others have criticized her for her comments, saying that they are hurtful and divisive.

The debate surrounding Minaj's views has sparked a wider conversation about free speech and the role of celebrities in politics.

As the petition continues to gain signatures, it remains to be seen how Minaj will respond to the backlash.
