      Conservatives think that

      checks notes

      Taylor Swift has rigged the Super Bowl in favor of Kansas City and is going to use that event to endorse Joe Biden.

      No I’m not kidding.

      At this point you can assume that most everything you’ll hear about her over the next six months will be conservative astroturfing.

      Swift does own a private jet. So naturally everyone who five minutes ago didn’t give half a shit about the environment is going to use that as a cudgel regarding the environment. They’re safe to ignore.

        No, the NFL rigged the superbowl. It’s the Pentagon that manipulated the relationship with the football player who will win the rigged superbowl which will elevate Taylor Swift on a national platform (which she previously did not have) to endorse Joe Biden

        She had a spurt of extensive jet use and she said she loaned it to friends so each trip wasn’t her.

        NFL nonsense is wild tho.

      Kremlin smear campaign designed to discourage celebrities from supporting Joe Biden’s campaign since he’s the key opponent of their asset: Donald Trump.

        Or maybe actual leftists have grievances with billionaires? You know, something that they’ve done for a few hundred years?

        I actually only have a problem with her polluting issues and for being a billionaire people like. I’m glad she’s making some of her fans pay attention to politics, but that doesn’t make her infallible.

      It’s probably trolling to see how many idiots follow along. I don’t care for her music and her fans are annoying, but I don’t listen to her music or hang out with her fans so idgaf, and even if I did hang out with them they’re not required to be in lockstep with what I like to be a friend. Pointless and seemingly artificial dividing lines. 🤷

      She’s wealthy and successful, so Lemmy hates her, and she’s a successful woman with opinions on politics, so the right hates her.

      Basically everyone’s seething at Taylor Swift for various reasons.

        Lemmy hates her

        Yeah totally true that’s why yesterday there was a thread about the reason for her popularity in which like 70% of the comments were neutral or positive about her.
