RoboChrist 9000 posted:4chan had a thing for a while as their pure Aryan princess in contrast to all the degenerate black rappers and poo poo. I think part of the reason the Right is so furious and assmad about her is because they want to like her but she's not fascist enough for them to like. 4chan was also convinced she was one of them for reasons i can't even begin to understand or articulate.

But she never denied it, so as these things inevitably go, the meme evolved into people's actual beliefs

Seriously we have a pretty blonde girl dating a Superbowl winning football player, and all the Real Americans™️ have to say about it is "SATANISM'. A new satanic panic centered around Taylor fuckin Swift is nearly unbeatable in terms of entertainment quality, and self isolating effect.

Swift is probably a perfect storm of reasons. Rejecting country and having more success in pop. Pushing back against the predatorial systems of her industry. Having the nerve to have political opinions and being yet another celebrity on the side of evil and encouraging people to vote and actually being effective. And yeah that she rejected the alt right by not being their aryan princess. Then she had the nerve to date the famous football player who dated a bunch of black women and says you should get vaccinated. But practically I think the simplest answer is the practical one. They’re terrified she’s actually gonna move the needle in the election. That and they’re just jumping on the popular thing same as when they were briefly obsessed with Barbie. Of course insanity seems to just follow Swift. After all the whacked out “the relationship is faked and the season is rigged to get her to the super bowl” poo poo really was there before RWM jumped on the wagon. Turns out people are loving weird about famous people. STAC Goat fucked around with this message at 21:17 on Feb 13, 2024 |

I don't think you can underestimate the cult of personality and magical thinking going on in a lot of modern conservative thought. They seem to see a lot of this as their talisman against our talisman and they don't have a counter to Swift in that paradigm. Which seems to be leading to this narrative of 'if it hadn't been for Taylor Swift then ... " that seems to be where they are heading. When in reality I think everyone just really hates Trump and modern zero-sum, give no ground ever, compromise is failure RW politics and she's just one of the more obvious examples

I'm 2014, I believed zucc would play kingmaker in 2016. The gop definitely made moves to ensure he didn't swing 2016 to the Dems. In 2023, it was clear Taylor is this season's kingmaker.

I just wish I could go two fuckin minutes without hearing about Taylor Swift. News articles, news radio, and every SA thread I have bookmarked just cannot stop talking about her, just really fuckin intense over the last week or two. I wish I had one of those Black Mirror style filters so every time she came up all I'd hear or see was just KSSSSSSSSHHHHHHHH and flickering static.

I assume at least from politics places that will calm down a lot now the NFL is done. She seems to stay very unpolitical, other than occasional get out to vote stuff which won't be until much nearer the election, so MAGA crew will forget about her in a week or two when some new rando come along to take their hate for stupid reasons.

I can't remember if she specifically said DEMOCRATS but I'd find it hilarious if they got furious at her for just encouraging people to register to vote, not even for any specific party, just encouraging people to be politically active. "Nooo, you can't just tell everyone to register to vote and vote in record numbers! Our entire campaign strategy relies on key demographics being ambivalent about voting!" "Haha early voting processing machine goes BRRRRRRR"

Swift did endorse Biden in 2020 but during this election cycle has not said anything political and only did a tweet or Instagram post to promote voter registration which may have gotten like 30K people to register within a day. The issue is, 1. if Swift endorsees anyone, it is going to be Biden/Dems (but she hasn’t) 2 any voters she recruits for voter registration are probably going to be mostly 18-35 years old and skew heavily female, which is going to be an overwhelmingly Dem voting demographic. I doubt that any celebrity endorsement (or endorsements in general) has the power to move the needle much in voters’ choice of candidate, if they did Hillary would have won by a billion electoral votes. But moving people in your demographic from nonvoter to voter is something.

IIRC the general consensus is that her previous managment heavily encouraged her to stay out of politics, which caused a lot of chuds and alt-right to fill in the gaps with "So she's an ayrian princess nazi, right?" and my understand is that she's trying to avoid that now, and her new management isn't nearly as... I'll just call it what it is, cowardly.

What is the source of the video clip of Taylor Swift sitting around a couch with her family or parents discussing her decision to come out and endorse the Tennessee Democratic candidate for US Senate over Blackburn, and saying she regretted being quiet about politics earlier? Also, another funny and pathetic part of the right wing meltdown over Swift is the insistence that she is a lesbian. It is the ultimate bog standard “bitch rejected my advances she must be queer”.

On the other hand, Americans are loving dumb and they'll tolerate nearly any thought or opinion so long as it doesn't threaten corporations' bottom line and isn't racial slur riddled (and even then the jury is out).

Blackburn responded with the most pathetic answer basically sucking up to Taylor. The Fox News people clearly thought she would attack Taylor if asked so they kept rewording the question and asking her again. Her answers got more and more pathetic, basically begging Taylor not to do it. She's scared as gently caress of Taylor.

Even if she were a true believer she’d keep that under wraps 10000000%. When Cats turned out to be a Lovcraftian horror TS removed any and all mention of the movie on her Instagram. Regardless of her politics (I assume she’s pretty liberal) any artist of that caliber will know what a Trump endorsement would do to her image.

Neither is a movie star, for instance. And Swift (I don't think) goes into Madonna or Cher territory by being super hypersexual and poo poo. But I guess unless either of them has a strong stance on the southern border or some poo poo then they're unpure. Nobody kneeled for the anthem or anything. DId Kelce forget to thank Jesus for the three trophies? I dunno, man. It's so loving stupid.
