Sure, in the same way that Destiel and Swan Queen are also both huge millenial fanbases.

Which is to say, one has a huge millennial fanbase of people who ship boyslash and the other has a huge millenial fanbase of people who ship femslash.

Which is also to say, there is very, very little overlap between the two, save they're approximately the same age and fannish.

DA but they’re not TS fans. It isn’t like the articles would only be visible to Pokémon fans, it isn’t like Pokémon fans are incapable of being aware of real world issues. Also, this isn’t generation locked. My father is Silent Generation AND he voted for Trump and even he’s aware that Taylor Swift is under fire from the general public for not objecting to the administration’s use of her music. The comment on the article reads the exact same as “release the files” to me; constant pressure on something the public cares about but the people involved want to sweep under the rug.

No-one's saying Pokemon fans wouldn't be aware of real-world issues, or aware of the backlash Swift has received. They're just not likely to be the kind of people who would be interested random comments about Taylor Swift on an article about the thing they are interested in, and which had absolutely nothing to do with her whatsoever.

Why do you think it’s Pokémon fans reading the article instead of the much larger demographic of people who are trying to keep up with all the fuckery of the Trump administration. Especially on social media since the algorithm is gonna put that article in front of them based on their engagement with other political articles.

I just don't understand why you think there's almost no overlap. Plenty of Pokemon fans I know like Taylor Swift.

Dude, even leaving aside that the story in that link is primarily about MAGA fuckery and not Pokemon the Fandom, on what planet is there "little to no overlap" between people who participate in two of the largest franchises of their generation? Hate to break it to you, but an awful lot of people are interested in more than one popular thing.
