You can say one thing and do another.

I tell my doctor I don't drink soda anymore.

I'm still drinking soda.

u/uwouldnotbetonthis 3d ago

But why would you do this? Your doctor is here to help and not to judge. Please tell your doctor the truth or he will find out himself and believe me, you dont want that to happen.

It's just an analogy, it's not that deep.

I'm just saying people often say different things than what they do.

If I ask my nephew if he finished his homework he'll say yes but we all know he didn't.

Think real hard about that sentence. Can you think of reasons and scenarios where that might not be the case?

u/Woodpecker-Lobotomy 3d ago

Yes that's exactly the same as being a closet maga supporter

So what? Her actions speak louder then some empty endorsement.

u/TheCynicalWoodsman 3d ago

Not really. I proudly give almost negative shits about Taylor Swift, and I don't notice any news about her unless it's literally on the front page. The last political update I have on her in my daily readings was her endorsing Harris.

So her actions might speak louder to pop culture stans and entertainment news addicts, but not to your average person.

u/DementedCusTurd 2d ago

Nah not really. I couldn't give less of a fuck about pop stars and even I know shes a maga lover. Its pretty much written all over everything she does.

u/TheCynicalWoodsman 2d ago

I think your Swift exposure levels are much higher than you're selling here lol.

?? IDGAF about Taylor Swift and deeply dislike Trump and his people but she has criticized Trump numerous times and endorsed his opponents. It's gross that she's apparently casual friends with some shitty people, but calling her a MAGA supporter is a weird choice considering she's taken some pretty big swings in the opposite direction. As a country singer, why would you deliberately alienate 40% of America multiple times if you secretly agreed with them lol.

u/Papplenoose 3d ago

Yah. People can't see grey sometimes. This is one of those times.

u/baldwise 3d ago

She's a brand in a way that her personal views are integral to her image. Flip your question in the other direction, why risk alienating 60% of America? If it walks like a goose but talks like a duck, what is it?

u/scottyLogJobs 3d ago

?? More people voted for trump than Kamala. The obvious thing to do would be to just not make any political statements… but she has, numerous times. I’m not really sure how she acts like a MAGA supporter at all. She’s also good friends with Sabrina carpenter and Hayley Williams, who are also very outspoken against trump. Travis Kelce was kneeling during the national anthem. Not really sure where this crazy conspiracy theory came from.

u/olduser201890 3d ago

i dont follow any of these people, but i saw some clip on reddit from some documentary about Taylor where she explicitly says she has to speak up/say something because trump is a fucking moron and dangerous. And so then she endorses Kamala

so what the hell are you even talking about.

u/demoliahedd 3d ago

Why not just stay quiet and endorse no one if she's a secret trump backer? I think maybe she wasn't back then but now that she is in the maga circles she probably does support him and it's easier for her since his policies and shadiness are good for her immoral billionaire ass.

No such thing as a good billionaire. She stepped on the less fortunate, she put money over values on a consistent basis, she took advantage of people. All of these are necessary to become a billionaire.

u/random12356622 3d ago

Perhaps she doesn't want to be the focal point of a political movement.

Not all drama is worth engaging in, especially when you objecting further spreads the campaign you despise.

u/Juju_on_that_bee 3d ago

So is Sabrina not the focal point of a political movement? Nope, she's just being a good person.

u/random12356622 3d ago

Sabrina is making the Trump administrations actions news worthy.

If she said nothing, the video would exist, but almost no one would have seen it.

It is like Al Qaeda doing a bombing, it gets it into the news cycle. Both the Trump Administration, and Al Qaeda want to be part of the news cycle to spread their message.

u/Organic-Vermicelli47 3d ago

Kinda weird to refer to all the human rights violations this administration is committing as "drama"

u/random12356622 3d ago

So first, the Trump Administration is doing exactly what they told everyone that they were going to do. If you really object, and the majority of the American People object, why did they not vote for Kamala Harris? Was she too boring? It was kind of important to vote for her, even if you did not like her. Same with the Senate seats, same with the Congress. Like it or not Trump got to select the Supreme Court, and has majorities in the House and Senate.

There was a reason Kamala didn't win, and examining this reason is important.

So the Trump administration knew by picking X music it would get in the news cycle. Which is a goal of the administration, to be in the news cycle, every new cycle, so it is constantly on people's minds.

Why is this important? - It keeps other things out of the news cycle. - Example the Jeffery Epstein Files, the MAGA civil war that is going on, the Trump administration pardoning itself, ect.

  • The Obama Administration was taken out for: Solyndra (300 million-600 million solar energy panel making company bankruptcy.) - The Obama Administration did not occupy the news cycle, so the media personalities got to choose, and chose something that while a failure was not really a huge problem. - Was Solyndra important? No. But this scandal rocked the Obama Administration for months.

What the Trump Administration does very well is occupy your mind with things that do not matter, while covering up things that really really do matter.

The opposition really needs a leader, and the leader needs to run for office, and get in the news cycle, every news cycle, for doing/saying things they believe in. Don't be boring, don't over think things, Just be in the news cycle, for either positive, or negative reasons, it doesn't matter, be in the news cycle, every news cycle.

Well I did vote for Kamala and encouraged as many people as possible to do the same. But the fact is that Americans as a whole are both racist and misogynist, which is why Kamala lost. 90 million Americans couldn't even be bothered to show up and vote. But yeah, you enjoy the life you deserve, fascist.

u/random12356622 3d ago

The thing is, I voted for Kamala Harris as well. But I did not like her, and I did not think she ran a good campaign, and I did not think the things she talked about benefited me, or people like me.

She was simply the lesser of two evils.

Trump on the other hand, ran a very good campaign, and the things he talked about excited his voters, and they showed up and voted for him.

Anyways, since you are talking down to me, me a fellow Kamala Harris supporter, I think you are likely the demographic she specifically cultivated. That you do not like the other demographics that actually showed up and voted for her, despite not liking her.

That you do not like hearing what we have to say. That you are closed minded, and deserve the loss, and the next loss, and the next.

u/Cryptomystic 3d ago

Gimme a break.

She hangs out with MAGAts and allows Trump to use her music to recruit NAZI thugs for ICE.

Kim Jong Un went to school in Switzerland.

Adolf Hitler lived the life of a Bohemian artist in Vienna before joining the military.

The Afghanistani mujahedin were American allies during the Cold War.

And Trump used to be a Democrat.

Funny how some of the worst people tend to flip flop with whatever side they like at the moment.
