#JusticeForBlackout on June 8th is designed to create conflict with Christina Aguilera fans and it's not right

[Jordan Miller]

Hey guys, I wanted to share my two cents in a separate Topic outside of the #JusticeForBlackout Topic. There's a lot of confusion and also I'd like to use this platform to spread kindness and hopefully persuade you to agree that the #JusticeForBlackout campaign should be delayed.

A Britney fan decided to organize a #JusticeForBlackout campaign slated for June 8th. 

I love love love the idea of a #JusticeFor initiative for this epic LP, but NOT under these circumstances.

Do you know what Fighters have been planning for weeks? A #JusticeForBionic campaign on, you guessed it, June 8th, the day the album turns 10-years-old.

One notorious Britney troll, who has a history of causing conflict on the Internet, gained some momentum with this and decided June 8th would be an ideal date for the Blackout campaign ONLY because they want to try and screw over Xtina fans. It's not right. Hell, their #JusticeForBlackout campaign made it to the front page of Exhale, but it was quickly discovered that the campaign had an ulterior motive - an attempt to block 'Bionic' from going #1 on iTunes and re-energize a feud between both fanbases. 

Guys, we are literal adults. We should be supporting BOTH living legends versus trying to tear them and their fans down. There's enough room for both women and fanbases.

I propose Britney fans agree to delay the #JusticeForBlackout campaign until a later date and allow Xtina fans to celebrate in peace without this stan war.

I fear a post like this might throw gasoline on the fire, but I would like Exhale to draw a line in the sand. We can't control what stans do on social media - if they want to continue to promote #JusticeForBlackout for June 8th, so be it, but I think we should seriously consider putting an ax in these plans because IT'S SOLE PURPOSE IS TO CAUSE DRAMA AND CONFLICT. So, even if in a magical world, 'Blackout' hit #1 on June 8th, at what cost? At bringing others down? What a crappy victory. 

Let's reschedule. BreatheHeavy / Exhale can properly promote a real #JusticeForBlackout campaign with an AMA, social media, takeovers etc. I'll personally help make it extra special here, but I won't be a part of this June 8th date except to promote Bionic. 

I had mixed reactions to my Tweet about this. 

It's also what inspired me to begin rolling out a Christina Aguilera Club sooner than I anticipated, because I want Fighters to have a home on Exhale, too. 

What are your thoughts? Drop a line in the comments.

I don't really care about these silly justice trends, when it charts on billboard then it's a real movement, I'll stream all my girls for free on my premium Spotify subscription

Jordan how bitter. 
We are bored in quarantine, we need to see fandoms war  

[ShatteredBoy]

I’ll be supporting since the majority of the fanbase will do it on the 8th, so for Britney my purchase will make more sense on the 8th. If everyone agreed to move the date it would be even better but we all know a lot of fans will just stick to the 8th. I’m supporting.

Jordan, this post is fanning the flames...

I agree. I will be supporting because that's when most fans will just be sticking to the June 8 date now 

I would also like to point out I wasn't aware of the justice for bionic campaign when I created the topic

The main reason the campaign “is not right” is because it supports Team CON and gay conversion practices.

But nobody wants to have that conversation.

I think we should move on Spotify instead iTunes for Britney justices, mass streaming and support on Spotify = more impact = more chances to re-enter on billboards, I'm sure we can but with more efforts.

If the Blackout justice was made to fight Christina's fans, it's not cool to be honnest. So the solution for me is: #JusticeForRadar instead lol

[ThisMeowBiteback]

 I agree Jordan, we are adults. An we should do it another time why try to battle another fan base? That’s so 2008 

[Britneyarmy8]

if someone did that to our glory movement we wouldve flipped s hit

instead alot of other fandoms supported us

we should do the same 

[Arianna]

I had planned to support. But doing it against another fan base is dumb- that’s just going to make it even harder to get it up on the charts....

[SlayOut]

I had no clue the Fighters were organizing anything  I’ve bought the physical album and stream Blackout routinely, so I probably wasn’t going to be too active on June 8th anyway. I don’t see the #JusticeForBlackout campaign being rescheduled, though. Unless the main organizers decide to move things back.

Who knew iTunes Charts were this contentious in the world of Spotify and Apple Music

The rivalry would actually be beneficial for Blackout because fans would be more likely to purchase so Britney took the W. It is a common strategy by labels releasing albums on competitive weeks so that (even if the artist doesn’t go #1) the stan ‘war’ will generate more copies sold. And Bionic will not chart higher than Blackout so this actually makes it a lot easier for Blackout to climb the charts. Plus the fact it will be a stan war will only get more people talking. I mean I didn’t come up with this and I don’t 100% agree but I’m supporting it, it’s for Brit’s legacy and most of the fanbase won’t change the date so moving the date now when we have so many fans involved will just divide all of us. Just my two cents too...

2019: #FreeBritney

2020: put money into the conservator's pockets just to spite Xtina fans 

[KillersWhoArePartying]

however it did seem like the justice for glory campaign made Britney genuinely happy and not just her conservators so maybe she doesn't have a problem with that?

i think a justice for blackout campaign would make her happy which is why maybe i'd support but i don't think she'd like it if she knew that it was just done to piss off xtina fans

[Louis-j]

Xtina will be nr°2, just like she deserves 

[aleomg]

Omg I feel so stupid. I voted for supporting Blackout without reading the article first. 

I agree with Bionic having its own thunder and time to shine. It's the 10th year anniversary and let's not forget Bionic was the pioneer of the #JusticeFor movement. 

I personally think letting Bionic reach the top of the charts, it might work in our favor in future Britney campaigns since we may get the Fighters and other stans support.

Sigh it’s so annoying cause xtina fans tried making a “britney Spears is racist” twitter account when every other celeb was getting cancelled. It kinda sparked another feud which I understand, but it’s kinda tired at this point. If blackout does well on the charts then I’ll support and buy it, but It wouldn’t be bad At all if the date got changed to even the day after/before

They did what?! Omfg. We’re expected to play nice after they try to accuse Britney of that? For shame.
