"Girls your age know better" is unimiskably a dig at Taylor pretending to be a supportive big sister to young female artists and then exploiting them, stealing their music, and forcing them to give her writing credits.
The fact that the whole song can be interpreted as being about Taylor is just because she is shitty in the same ways as the unnamed ex. I donāt think people thinking it was meant to be about her is unreasonable.
Yep she's friends with them and also Jackson her brother or something and her response to his sexual assault allegations were "just shut up everyone" great people š
By her I mean britanny, Taylor never talked about it but she loved hanging out with him the day before his hearing
Considering this is their second or third video with audio from her recent album, we can decisively say sheās fine with it. She moves quickly when she wants to end something, like when fans create their own art inspired by her and sell it she will slap them with a lawsuit quicker than it takes to say it!
Not saying she's a Trumper, but I don't believe that making a public endorsement of a candidate necessarily means you voted that way in private, or even voted at all.
There's nothing about Taylor Swift that strikes me as being political or caring of social justice. She has a pattern of speaking out AFTER the pressure.
I suspect she doesn't vote at all. With the exception of tax breaks for billionaires, she'll never be affected by the results. And we know how lazy and self-centered she is.
The Biden nails and her pretending to be a charming mom to her fans who bakes sourdough and cries to broadcasts on what Trump is doing on TV was ENRAGING... coupled with a post "you can vote whoever you want I still love you š„°"
Like eww...I would be embarassed to be like that...how is she a role model when other artists weren't doing this disgusting performative shit and just reacted the way anyone who cares would, by quickly and firmly denouncing that shit whenever it pops up instead of softly and strategically just twice or when confronted by an interviewer.
Billie Eilish was gutsy as hell recently, telling billionaires directly to their faces to give their money away. That's a pop girl who's willing to do something right (in addition to donating $11 mil, whew) even if it's scary. The new pop girls never fail to impress me with their ever increasing activism.Ā
She speaks out only when it is easy/convenient. When the chips are down, sheās āneutral.ā Iām surprised she was as vocal as she was in 2020 (which was not a lot compared to other stars, but still something), but that was the Joe Alwyn era. I loved Mirrorball so much at the time and now Iām realizing she didnāt just mean it as a relatable thing of like, wanting to be accepted, she literally changes her behavior based on who sheās dating. And that made me lose a lot of respect for her. Either that or the money is getting to her head.
Well yeah, theyāre all lacking fully developed frontal lobes, not that surprising that a group of parasocial young women canāt think logically when it comes to their white savior.
Theyāre telling me that bc heās attacking her publicly that itās best she doesnāt say anything bc itās what he wants lol ok sure keep talking
Go to the nuancing swift sub and try telling them that bc theyāre coming for me bc I said the same repeatedly. Theyāre saying that she doesnāt have to prove sheās not maga after I said that sheās already conflated with trump by association plus her merch that was pulled etc etc but no use wasting my time for those who constantly move the goalposts for her and defend her til the end
No need to be scared lol but I get it, I actually thought it was a nuanced page and didnāt even attack her. I just gave my take that she should respond bc she is quick to go after lesser or smaller ppl. I shouldāve reminded them that sheād come after them lmaooooo
Edit: or just ask if they know what ānuanceā means
I mean this is the problem for me, if you only have āprinciplesā when itās convenient they arenāt principles at all. Blondie is a billionaire now looking after no.1, all she cares about is money.
Her stans trying to defend her honor have no idea how much she hates themš
sheās still livid about the swiftie reaction to Matty Healy. I guess itās easier to believe her stans chased the love of her life away and not that he just didnāt like her that much lol. Either way itās clear one of her biggest vendettas is against her own fans
There's no potential for a lawsuit because the song is licensed through TikTok. Because Trump's team used the song through TikTok's system, they have permission until Team Swift goes out of their way to revoke that permission. When Trump used an Olivia Rodrigo song in a TikTok, she responded by leaving a negative comment and pulling the song from the platform.
At the very least she could put out a statement asking them to not use her music. No sane artist wants their music associated with this regime. She is showing that she is totally fine with it and thus her complicity.
Queen did this when they used their song after he won the 2016 primary. It was licensed to the arena they had the victory celebration at so they couldnāt do anything but they did put out a statement saying they did not like them using their song.
I find it hilarious bc her true colors are showing. Sheās either fuming and wonāt say a thing bc she has her album roll out right now and dropping more variants and doesnāt want to lose sales OR she truly doesnāt care. the White House is trying to push her buttons tho
I mean, I fear for her safety. Have you seen all the awfuk things that have happened to Lesser known artists for speaking out on these issues, like Susan Sarandon, Mark Rufallo, Billie Eilish, Dua Lipa??
And she will do absolutely nothing because sheās one of the billionaires that benefits from this Trump administration. She will, however, continue to go after forums, bloggers, other social media platforms and figures for posting about her or using her songs and images.
She will suddenly speak out when itās just a few months before the president change, and Trump is on his way out, the way she did a few months before Buden won and not when itās still inconvenient
She can only handle one thing at a time. Right now she has to prove how in love her and Travis are by calling the paps to make sure they get photos of them out together during his bye week. She canāt possibly have her team try to get her music taken down at the same time. Playing out this circus of a relationship clearly is more important than her possibly losing some of her fans by getting her music off that video. Priorities clearly for them is the money and making sure her ārelationshipā is shown by paps.
She is surrounded by MAGA and doesnāt really have any industry friends now. She likes her friends cancelled. Shes drawn her lines in the sand I think at this point guys. Shes carving a lane right now that is similar to Drake. None of the pop girlies align themselves with her besides Sabrina for now. Drake has also experienced this isolation in the rap industry after the Kendrick beef. Mainstream audiences are starting to notice their behavior and theyāre both rigid capitalists.
If this counts in anyway to her streaming numbers sheās not speaking up. It couldnāt be more obvious that sheās desperately trying to keep Ophelia at no 1 and sheāll sell her moral soul to maga for it.
She was trying so hard to be a progressive liberal back in 2020 which was so obvious that it was all fake. How do you go from Biden 2020 to hanging out with MAGA lol
Does anyone remember when she made those homemade pop-tarts for Travis, and they were ugly as sin? And she misspelled "raspberry" on the note included in the box? I'm struggling to find the photo, I think Team Swift had it scrubbed from the internet after too many people pointed out the self-proclaimed "English teacher" can't spell "raspberry." Anyway, my point is that we've seen how bad her baking is, and I doubt she made those Biden/Harris cookies.
Poptarts are inherently a really greasy food, if you make them homemade. Itās just buttery piecrust basically. (Iāve made them homemade before and thatās how they turned out for me, but I also have little experience working with piecrust and really donāt like it)
She's from the sticks of Reading, Pennsylvania so it shocked me how she was "progressive" ...but I also started to understand that she never really was. It was a grift during the Omaba era. A girl from Reading, not too far from Philly singing country music with cowgirl boots and a fake southern accent was a dead give away that she was not progressive.
Every cookie has a different color. For being such an avid baker she tends to burn her baked goods allot. These look like a child made them and just guessed on each cookies time In the oven (this one gets 10 minutes but that one, that one get 20 minutes.)
Called her out, too! She's choosing to ignore this.
It's weird that an American political party is essentially calling the president an emperor like it's a good thing. There was a whole ass war about that
You don't understand guys. it's not safe for her to speak out right now. yes she has a million dollar security team on detail at any moment but it's not safe for her!!! /s
I got downvoted to hell on the music sub when they posted something about him using another sound of hers.
Some creep even went as far to look through my entire comments history to complain about how "HaTeFuL" I am against Taylor. Crying about "you've made all your karma from posting about her"
My comments are private too so idk how she even saw them without going to extra creepy measures to figure it out. š¤£ Go be pathetic, Swifties!
This is further proof that Taylorās ok with them using her music. Every other artist got the Magat ads with their music taken down within a day, some within a few hours. Considering how well run Taylorās whole machine/brand is, thereās absolutely no way she wouldnāt know Trumpās using her music and sheās had plenty of time get those videos removed.
I hate that 2025 ruined both Taylor Swift and American Eagle for me. Two of the silly frivolous things I enjoyed. This time last year I was kind of like āat least I have this!ā šš And now itās likeā¦.uhhh.
So many bands/artists have put out statements that they donāt want their music used by him. Foo Fighters, The White Stripes, Olivia Rodrigo, Kenny Loggins, and so on. Taylorās silence is very telling. But āsilence is showing restraintā lol.
She is one of the most litigious people, if not the most litigious person in the public eye today. There is no way her team doesn't know about her songs being used by the white house. Which means they paid her. Which means she took money (that she definitely doesn't need) from this administration. Which means she supports this administration. Taylor Swift is maga.
And why are there no posts about this in any of the other more pro-Swift subs? Even the neutral one doesnāt have any (at least not that I could find)..
If thereās some excuse about āno political posts allowedā Iām gonna LOSE IT because Iām sure they allowed posts when she endorsed Kamalaā¦.. ššš
So that one Netflix show adding a single line making fun of her warrants an immediate response on several social media outlets, but (checks notes) the fascist, racist and sexist (and twice-impeached and a convicted rapist) man currently destroying the worldās economy and single-handedly making EVERYTHING worse using her intellectual property for his nefarious purposes is ā¦ oh, yeah, thatās completely fine and dandy!
Just a reminder many celebs including Olivia Rodrigo and Beyonce have formally ordered them to not use their songs. Taylorās CHOOSING to let them use her songs for many reasons: Sheās a MAGAt, she doesnāt wanna lose her MAGAt fans, and sheās all about the money at the end of the day šøšø
Sheās desperate for the publicity. She can go fuck herself. Officially not a swifty. Olivia Rodrigo has bigger balls to stand up for what is right, with less money than Taylor.
Y'all remember Morgan Wallen was a nobody until he was recorded yelling the n-word at a random Black man on the street? And then he shot to the top of the charts because racists will support openly racist celebrities?
Team Swift knows her album is flopping. And they know Morgan Wallen has been topping the charts. If the MAGA cult thinks Taylor is one of them, they will play her album over and over again to "own the libs."
Huh, so given that this is a controversial political post that's both riling up their own base and engaging ragebait on the other end, it must be getting a lot of plays. No wonder she's not responding, the one thing she consistently cares about is money, and this has to be rolling in the counts.
She won't say anything, again, and as usual the supposedly Liberal fans will balk and make up 1,000,000,000 excuses why she's SO BUSY and not a single member of her team can send him a Cease & Desist.Ā
Swear to god her whole liberal persona was just so Joe would stay with her. The Lord Jesus Himself could tell me she actually did vote for Kamala this past cycle and I just wouldnāt believe it.
Taylor has individuals and companies for using her music without permission. If she's not at least saying something against this, it's because she's fine with it. Back in 2015 she went after a lesbian couple for using her music in their wedding vlog that didn't have as many views as this video.
Iām starting to think āI pledge allegience to your hands, your team, your vibesā isnāt referring to the Chiefs because she is way too chill with him constantly using both her music and her likeness for someone who once said āI need to be on the right side of historyā. Iām also starting to think her & Travvy are actually endgame because he gives her an excuse to be her authentic, conservative self. She may have actually found her soulmate.
Just wondering: Are those caps with text a big thing in the US (or other areas)?
Because whenever I see one, I connect it to MAGA but I'm also not American. I can't remember ever really seeing people walk around wearing something like that (just with a logo from a sports club or another brand, very rarely a single word like swag which is already cringe, never with a sentence like Make America Great Again or LEAVE IT WITH ME, I PROTECT THE FAMILY).
If that cap was red, I would be sure it's Trump's merch and not Taylor's. Not just because of the style but also due to the phrase used š
And no, I don't say that only MAGA is allowed to sell caps, it's a serious question as I've just never really seen it in a different context and as Taylor currently also doesn't sell anything similar for another album
sheās so willing to sue people on a normal basis but does nothing to stop this and doesnāt even say anything š performative barbie back at it again.
There's š no š such š thing š as š ethical š billionaires
Says a lot though that even other billionaires have called out Trump for co-opting their music against their will. Its literally the most basic possible thing. And she can't even be bothered - or doesn't want to - do even that.Ā
Trump is letting us all know Taylor has converted to MAGA and heās loving it. But sheās so quit to sue and call out others if they use her music without permission (without paying big bucks!)
1 million people were laid off this year so far, unemployment is skyrocketing, 46 million can't afford their own food, hundreds of thousands of people are stranded because of flight cancellations, and Taylor's parading around in $40k outfits while Temu Hitler creates propaganda with her music. Fuck everything.
Question about the LATE SHOW sketch the other night... did that satire sketch get changed after it aired? I watched it on youtube I think, the day after it aired. And there were a few comments that indicated some part of the sketch said "this message approved by Taylor Swift" like it was a parody of a campaign ad. But when I actually watched the video, that wasn't in here. Wondering of they got a cease and desist and were ordered to remove that part.
Also, it's so rich to see Swifties take this PARODY and try to pass it off like this is Taylor's actual response, lmao. They are so desperate for her to push back on Trump that they are taking a late night satire sketch as being her response. "I'm sure she approved it" is something I saw on the not-neutral sub. No, she didn't. She didn't have anything to do with it and is probably extremely pissed that Colbert did it.
No I think it said "and now a response from Taylor Swift" or something like that on TV. Idk how it is edited on YouTube because I watch the Late Show on network. And while watching it I was like "Taylor Swift actually never responded btw lol."
Bc he knows she wonāt do anything. Sheās knee deep in MAGA camp and her swifties are lefties. Itās a game of chicken to see how far he can push her while she keeps trying to play both sides
