Tan didn't just pull these words out of thin air, they are lyrics from 2Pac's "Hit 'Em Up"

> F** Mobb Deep! F** Biggie! F** Bad Boy as a staff, record label, and as a motherf**' crew!

> And if you wanna be down with Bad Boy, then f** you too! Chino XL, f** you too! All you motherf**s, f** you too!

> All of y'all motherf**s, f** you, die slow!

Didn’t read the article because of the paywall, but I’d be surprised if the article mentions this. Mission local is a very pro the board of directors, and if you don’t live in SF, they are absolutely terrible. They don’t deserve to die, but they absolutely deserve to be kicked out.

The article mentions this.

Downvoted for stating the obvious? Did anyone read the article?

> On Saturday morning, Tan apologized about the death wish in a subsequent post, saying he was simply referencing a lyric in Tupac’s “Hit ‘Em Up,” but that it “wasn’t a good call” regardless. The notorious diss track famously added fuel to the fire of East Coast-West Coast rap rivalry, leading to Tupac’s murder in a drive-by shooting just three months after its release.

The article is tragically revisionist and completely ignores the context:

People tried to kill Tupac, then Tupac went off on them, then people killed Tupac.

The article summarizes this as “Tupac said mean things and it got someone killed.”
