Swift has more to lose than most
Agreed, she could lose 99% of everything she has and still be comfortably in the 1%
What a fucking take from the journo
Billionaire has no morals, shocking news.
Didn't she endorse Kamala and speak out against Trump in the past? Maybe Trump's use of her music isn't even on her radar?
I mean... she's a billionaire... soo...
She's a billionaire white pretty blonde.
You know how autistic people can recognize autistic people with ease?
WASP progressives can identify white bootlickers with ease.
- Autistic people can recognize autistic people?
  Maybe my budding suspicions about myself were wrong.
  
  it's like gaydar, but for eye contact (or lack thereof)
  
  Yeah. it depends on the visible and vocal characteristics.
Gotta fuel up the jet somehow. Do you expect her to do that in an ethical way???
- I doubt she's being paid for the use of these songs.
  
  Who said anything about direct payments? Loyal maga scum will slurp it down and buy more of her merchandise and music. Trust me she isn't losing sales off of supporting maga. And before you say it, yes by her allowing the far right fascists to play her terrible music at rallies she is in fact supporting them.
TIL Taylor Swift is an arsehole. Colour me shocked!
She can’t sing and he can’t lead. Seems like a perfect fit. What’s to say about it? 😂
- She's a fine singer, I'm sure you can find some other criticism to use here.
  
  Yeah. I'm not a fan of her. But saying she can't sing seems a bit ridiculous.
  
  We’ll have to agree to disagree on the topic. I think she’s a pretty great artist who makes wonderful use of auto tune and other modern music-making marvels, but in my opinion saying she is a singer is a stretch of the imagination.
Imagine how many fans she will lose if she brings politics in .
- She's done so lightly in the past, doesn't seem to have affected her much
So she's worse than MTG? Guess Ari Matti was right.
Because she's an AI prototype and probably a hologram.
