(Anonymous) 2025-11-22 02:12 am (UTC)(link)Furthermore, Taylor Swift tends to keep silent when speaking up would mean acknowledging something that is so absurd and cretinous it doesn't deserve to be dignified with a response. I respect the hell out of her for that. I kind of wish more celebs would follow suit.

(Anonymous) 2025-11-22 03:51 am (UTC)(link)In Taylor's case, anyone who thinks she supports Trump simply because she hasn't dignified his miserable toddler ass with her attention is pretty clearly someone who wants to believe the worst about her and is using any excuse they can find to do so.

(Anonymous) 2025-11-22 02:57 am (UTC)(link)Except that she gave millions to foodbanks over the course of the Eras tour, quietly making huge food bank donations in every city the tour stopped in. She gave $5M to hurricane relief in 2024. She's estimated to have donated well over $6.5 million to charity in 2025 alone. And all of this is on top of the ONE HUNDRED AND NINTY-SEVEN MILLION DOLLARS she gave in bonuses to the cast and crew of the Eras tour.
People really just have a narrative in their head of what they want to believe Taylor Swift is like, and no amount of factual reality can dissuade them from clinging to that narrative.

(Anonymous) 2025-11-22 03:21 am (UTC)(link)Think about it. When you have great privilege, and someone uses your words as a soundtrack to their acts of oppression against others, and you say nothing, you are by extension participating in that oppression. Basically, it's remaining neutral in a situation where there is a clear oppressor. Maybe you're not directly causing harm, but by saying nothing, you give the message that you are okay with others being harmed.
In ordinary times, yes, not being an asshole is a no-brainer. But these are not ordinary times, and that alone doesn't cut it. You have to actively condemn being an asshole and work toward a system that doesn't let assholes get away with hurting others.
I don't let anyone else off the hook, because it's not okay for anyone else to ignore it. Taylor doesn't get special treatment.

(Anonymous) 2025-11-22 03:55 am (UTC)(link)She has already done that, numerous times, on her own terms. Making a performative statement to remind people of that fact now, simply because Trump has forced her hand, would not be constructive.
no subject
(Anonymous) 2025-11-22 04:16 am (UTC)(link)Real politics and real struggle is not about producing performative sound bites. I really hope people like you will figure that out at some point, because you're actually making it harder for us, and making it easier for Trump and his supporters.

i think the fact that she's litigious with everything EXCEPT with this it's what's bothering people, and that added to the fact that her circle nowadays seems to be MAGA adjacent, some people are demanding a stance from her, which is valid
personally i think it is hilarious to expect a billionaire eco-terrorist to come out as left-leaning/say anything about the current american administration. she's clearly not bothered by it lmao

(Anonymous) 2025-11-22 03:02 pm (UTC)(link)People just pay outsize attention to Taylor, end of. We're not getting Gaylor-level conspiracy brain about... idk another probably-straight artist, I don't follow music. Metallica guy.
(Maybe Gaylor was a bad example; that's RPF that's pretending to be a conspiracy because it thinks that's more respectable than RPF.)
