Hey guys, remember when music wasn’t all political? Back in my day we listened to Green Day and Rage against the Machine and not this wooooke garbage /s
“And another thing! WHY DO WE HAVE TO KEEP SEEING THIS PRETTY WHITE WOMAN DATING A CONVENTIONALLY HANDSOME WHITE ATHLETE WHO WEARS HIS HAIR IN A CREW CUT? Why do they have to constantly put that kind of thing all up in our faces? If there’s anything we ABSOLUTELY CANNOT STAND, it’s having to see attractive, heterosexual, cisgender white people dating in a wholesome manner!”
I mean, is that not registering with everybody? The insanity of that shit? By all logic, these motherfuckers should see the Taylor-Travis union as the last hope for “traditional” (meaning white-on-white & heterosexual) relationships. I guess just knowing she’s supposedly left-wing is enough for them to be pissed off.
And I guess she seems to be a beacon of female empowerment, in a more general sense. And I guess they don’t like the fact that she’s richer and more influential than him. I suppose they’d rather see him date a struggling black actress than a white megastar. At least he’d be in the “superior” position, rather than some kind of de facto supplicant.
Yeah, their problem is she is successful and has her own personality. And too old, and not a virgin. They only want young virgin women who are seen and not heard and are reliant on their husband for everything, like a good little piece of property.

Yeah. We should just go back to Buffalo Springfield and Credence Clearwater Revival. Get those politics out of music! I just want to listen to Fortunate Son in peace!
I was gonna say “that’s why I only listen to Blue (Da Ba Dee) by Eiffel 65”, but then I realized the guy has a house, a sports car, and a girlfriend, yet he’s still lonely and depressed, so he must be an AnCap.
CCR is pretty much my favorite band and it took me quite a while to understand the lyrics.
Taylor Swift fans are annoying. Maga inbreeds are obnoxious. If I had to choose though it would be the Swifties because at least they’re not shitting where they eat.
No Swiftie has ever endangered my basic rights or the functioning of my country, or the survival of other democracies abroad. I’ll take Swifties any day of the week.
Also, I’ve never actually heard Taylor Swift’s music.

It’s pretty good. I don’t seek it out, but I enjoy it when I hear it.
It’s definitely some of the better music on the radio. If you’re forced to listen to the radio, like at work, there’s far more annoying songs than hers.

Yet.
That is one absolute honker of a “yet.” That “yet” could be a destination mountain climb. That “yet” could take a 16hr car ride to get across.
I think until we see a Swifty militia with a cereal or other breakfast food based imitation ceremony, we probably dont have much to worry about.
It was a sarcastic joke. “Your chances of dying to a Swiftie are low but never zero” kinda thing.

And I mean, not for nothing, but Swifties are just doing what fans are supposed to do. Spending shitloads of money on concert tickets, buying merch, and generally being moderately obsessive about the famous person that has their attention, for however long they’re part of a fan community.
You know what they remind me of, actually? Obsessive metalheads, who love a specific metal band. Importantly, most of them are not fans because they’re sexually attracted to the people in the band. They actually listen to the music, as the music that they listen to. And then they start identifying with the whole thing, as a subculture. That’s what I see, with the Swifties. Most of them are heterosexual women, who are into Taylor Swift’s music, both as music and as a subculture they can identify with, in a harmless way.
Note that metalheads have also been vilified in their time. Ironically, old people called them devil-worshippers, just like some old people are literally calling Taylor Swift a devil-worshipper and/or illuminati blood-drinker (seriously).
But we all know that’s insane nonsense, on both counts. For my two cents, being a fan of something on the level of “I really love this music and this musical artist” is a positive step above the groupie style fans, who just want to fuck their heartthrob singer/guitarist of choice. I’m not actually judging anyone for that behavior either, but I think that’s just less interesting and more annoying to see.
MAGA motherfuckers, on the other hand…they’re a fucking cult. They want to see their fucking leader take over the country and/or world, then proceed to smite and torture their (largely imaginary) enemies. That ain’t fandom. Or, if it is fandom, it’s the kind that’s taken SO FAR OUT OF PROPORTION that it takes on a quality of horror all its own, and doesn’t bear comparing to any normal variety of fandom.
they’re a fucking cult
All that work and they didn’t even change “MALT liquor” to “MAGA liquor”? That’s just lazy, man.
I read your wall of text, and I agree.
Arguably the satanic panic was even wrong-er about metal than they are about this. Taylor Swift doesn’t have any songs about punching the devil… to my knowledge.
Their Taylor Swift jokes aren’t even funny. Always about the amount of exes she has. Maybe I’ll attempt at a joke:
So when Swift becomes president in 2024, will each of her exes get their own room in the White House?
Wait… opps.
Now I’m picturing President Swift sending drone strikes, to take out her haters. Like, Predator drones with slogans written in lipstick. One just says “Look what you made me do,” and the one next to it is like “Shake THIS off.”
EDIT: also, “Death From Above (Taylor’s Version)”
We thought she was dropping hits. Really she was dropping hints.
“Bandaids don’t fix bullet holes” is a real Swift lyric lol
I had no idea! Basically, her titles and lyrics are 100 percent made for scrawling onto ordnance. And her semi-retro style (especially her hair and makeup) is almost like a girl from WW2 aircraft nose art.
It gets harder and harder to figure out what these motherfuckers don’t like about her.
I don’t know anything about Swift except for memes. I do remember someone off reddit once saying something along the lines of (Yeah just some unverifiable reddit heresay):
They [implying white supremacists] are just made she doesn’t want to be their blue eyed goddess spokesperson
I can’t wait for her to hold up the Vince Lombardi and scream out her endorsement of Marianne Williamson
I’ve got my money on Vermin Supreme, actually.
get out of here you goddamn boot head
I think it would be funny if he switched to a giant croc shoe.
But that would scare away all of the free ponies
Please. If the man knows anything, he knows his own brand.
Who wouldn’t take her name? Honestly, Swift is a pretty cool name
It is if your forename doesn’t end in S
He is now pronounced Travis Whiffed
You’re not wrong.
“Obviously it’s a psyop, conventionally attractive women and football players never date each other.”
How’d they get my picture when I have tape over the cam?
Not my jitterbug too
Just imagine if Ronnie Ray Gun was a celebrity! Those damn libruls would have worshipped him like he was second coming of Jesus
Yeah! And imagine if his wife had also been an actress, and also had a reputation for giving the best gawk-gawk in Hollywood!
