(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.

(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.

(Anonymous) 2025-11-22 12:48 pm (UTC)(link)She doesn't have to get involved in politics if she doesn't want to because despite what the left think, they aren't the 90% majority and people are getting tired of being lectured at by celebrities. Make music, make movies, and support your favorite charity, but keep your other opinions to your selves.
