“When I respond to things socially, I’m not responding because you hurt my feelings. I’m not responding because I even care enough of what you’re saying because, as we say in the ‘hood, it’s ‘ignant,’ ” Wade said of social media trolls.
“Why I’m responding is because I understand my platform. I understand that I’m speaking for a lot of people that don’t have the same voice I have as a father or, you know, I’m even speaking for my 12-year-old right now because I haven’t allowed him to sit in front of a microphone yet. But I’m speaking for so many others in the LGBTQ+ community.”
