Can some ELI5 Taylor Swift drama? I haven't listener to her since middle school, and my sister's keep trying to tell me what's up but I have no context.
The conservatives don't like her because she's popular and she is pro LGBTQ+
And she tells her fans to go vote. Republicans really don't like high voter turnout.
Voters turnout doesn't favor one party over another

Yeah but Republicans think it does and have been trying to suppress voters for a while. Mostly in specific districts and for specific methods like threatening people using ballot drop boxes.
that's a really interesting read. i'm surprised by the data. i couldn't find any surface-level errors with it either. guess i got some thinkin to do.
That, and many liberals don't like her bc she is extremely fucking rich, and grew up as such.
And she doesn't say a peep when her zombie army of deranged cultists send death threats to people who review her albums in a negative manner.
She's an opportunistic cunt.
Liberals care about that?
I thought hating the rich was a left thing?
As a leftist myself, I'm not a fan of TSwift, but I think there's much bigger and much worse targets to meme about. So I think all these TSwift posts are conservatives or bots.
I guess I should have said leftist, I tend to use them interchangeably because the mean similar things, but your right, that is more of a leftist thing.
The left doesn't like the rich. The right envies them. It all works out to dislike from both sides with the right willing to suck up since they have a never ending delusion that they will magically be rich one day.
Thanks!
