      Conspiracy theorists are hard at work trying to fit today’s events into an updated conspiracy theory that shows that her silence is actually part of the deep state plan.

        The number of “look at this happy woman enjoying herself” angry posts is just the best.

        These sad fucks just telling on themselves as they rage at simple human joy.

          I was looking forward to sneering at those but haven’t seen any. Apparently I’m much better at creating a safe space away from the right wing loonies than I realized.

          Edit: Ah, the secret is twitter. Of course. I see them now. lol

          I called it the Swiftiebowl and apparently someone did a meme about the next Madden game that it included Taylor Swift and people lost their minds.

          From another outsider:

          • I think Taylor Swift is married to a player of one of the teams competing for the superbowl.
          • She previously encouraged young people to vote (but not for whom), which would be bad for Republicans as they’re unpopular with young people.
          • Right wing media cooked up a theory that the super bowl was fixed so the team of Taylor Swift’s husband would win, resulting in Taylor Swift being called to the victory celebration where she then would endorse Joe Biden.

          As far as I take it from this thread, the team actually won, but the endorsement didn’t happen, confusing conspiracy nutters everywhere.

    Phew, now she’s able to let Biden win the election. Was a close one there for a minute.

    I’ve been waiting my entire life to see my team win a Super Bowl, and freaking Swifties get one their first season.

          Dark Brandon isn’t meant to be serious. It’s meant to mock the Republicans who say, “Let’s go Brandon” (meaning fuck you Biden) and it references the conspiracy theory that he’s a devil-worshipping communist by referring to him as “dark.”

          Anytime you see Dark Brandon, it’s the left mocking the extreme right for being idiots.

      Can someone please explain this meme to a non-american? Been seeing this everywhere and the us president has posted that pic of himself with red eyes on twitter and I have no idea what’s going on.

        The most marketable person on the planet is dating a dude on the chiefs. She recently asked people in the US to vote. That is bad for Republicans (regressives). Now the idiots say she is working for the “deep state.” You can’t use logic to change someone that believes themselves into it.

        A billionaire who makes very middling music goes to a football match to see her football player boyfriend play. Somehow this is a conspiracy.

        Taylor Swift is dating someone who plays for the Kansas City Chiefs, the Chiefs just won the Super Bowl. There were some very smart people online who had a conspiracy theory that the entire relationship was fake and that the Chiefs were going to win the Super Bowl so that Taylor Swift could endorse Joe Biden to all of America after they won.

          I mean, Fox News anchors had entire segments about her potentially endorsing Biden if the chiefs win and how she should “stay out of politics”, as if they don’t impact everyone.

            It’s only ‘stay out of politics’ when they support the left. If some mouth breather like Gina Carrano opens her stupid mouth about politics in their favor, they’re all for it.

    I wouldn’t have cared, but I ended up rooting for the Chiefs because it would piss off people I don’t like. Heh heh heh.

    I started watching near the end of the 4th quarter, and it turned out to be a surprisingly good ending. It was anyone’s game, right up to the end, and only the second superbowl in history to go into overtime.

    I generally don’t like football, so I watched it Live from Bikini Bottom on Nickelodeon.

    I am a proud leftist. I am also a football fan. I am also drunk. That said; fuck Travis Kelce as well as that turd man Patrick Mahomes. Ceasefire in Gaza now as well for the synapses in my brain on that WW3 timing

      As a Ravens fan and a leftist I agree. The season was rigged from the start. I don’t know how it just was and no I won’t listen to reason.

      If it gets it means Biden wins in November I’ll grudgingly accept it though.

      This was a contest between San Francisco and Taylor Swift’s boyfriends team. Don’t act like you won anything. Donald Scrump wasn’t even invited.

        I have no idea why people assumed my comment was MAGA related. The joke was that MAGA had to choose between Team TayTay (KS) and Team Pelosi (San Francisco). Did everyone forget that Pelosi represented San Francisco?

      As someone who always had a fondness for the 49ers, how DARE you besmirch them so?

      Next you’re going to call LA Lakers Harvey Weinstein’s team, the Diamondbacks the team of Joe Arpaio and the NY Rangers Team Woodie Allen!

        I meant no offense, but you have to admit that MAGA football fans having to choose between Team TayTay and Team Pelosi is hilarious.
