Rap and Hate Mingle in a Weird Yerevan Ad
via Yesoudo, an ad for a rap party in Armenia’s capital Yerevan says “gays and animals are not allowed.”
What caught my attention most, though, is not the American-flagized blond nor the homophobic message but the name of the party (rap group?) – Hin Jugha (Old Djulfa). This is the historic Armenian place where Azerbaijan destroyed thousands of stone-crosses in December of 2005. What do homophobia, rap and Old Djulfa have to do with each other?

Good point, Blogian.
I suppose, this is a ‘perfect’ combination for attention seeking bigots and loser-‘promoters’. What can be more eye-catching and attention grabbing than semi-naked blond, vulgar homophobia and false patriotism? Imagine, what sort of crowd would be attracted to that party… Even thinking of it made me nauseous.
Just posted in my blog full reflection of it.

The name is misspelled as Hin Zugha. Also, they have misspelled the words for entry and call.
not the brightest light bulbs out there, that’s for sure.
