There are 1.000 #superbowl related flights of private jets to Las Vegas plus 500-1.000 parking flights and you are having a problem with #taylorswift having a second plane on stand-by "just in case" in Tokyo.
But yeah, keep on fighting systemic problems with bullying a single person (with a rather low emission plane) for every evil in the world. That's easier then replacing your big US truck with a tinier car, going vegan or stop voting for people who are deep into the oil and weapons industry.
Taylor Swift called on her followers to register to vote. Taylor Swift inspires young women who are more likely to vote left-wing.
So now I'm seeing a zillion re-posts of news articles about "Taylor Swift has a private jet: she is an evil polluting billionaire" because the right wing wants to suppress her political influence.
That's why we're seeing 'news' about just her jet, not anyone else's. It's a coordinated propaganda campaign.
Meanwhile, in Japan:
Wearing @Chief colors, reclaiming red from MAGA, #TaylorSwift is living her best life.
She’s Bringing joy to millions instead of sucking that joy away like the right is doing in America.
🌄 « Empowered women empower other women […], Swift continues to show herself as a woman who supports other women. It’s a crucial message for younger generations » 🌌↘️
I do love how frickin' direct and blunt @rebeccawatson is especially when it comes to politics and rank stupidity which we get in spades from MAGA. So no surprise when she shreds the intellectual bankruptcy of the Taylor Swift conspiracy theory.
It's literally the dumbest idea you could imagine to stop Trump. I mean if Biden wanted to stop Trump he'd call up a Jewish space laser and fry him to a crisp on his golf course. End of story.
@Xenograg I'm really not sure what prompted me to follow you or if it was a reciprocal follow after you started following me (which begs the question: why?), but I really enjoy your posts! Keeping nerding out on the nerd stuff. I don't play D&D any more (sadly, no TTRPGs currently), but recently started listing to Swift as a middle finger to MAGA, and wish we did SRE well (or really anything well) at $employer. Anyway, hat tip!
@ramsey@omnicolor I became a #Swiftie when "Blank Space" was released. Late by some measurements, but in time to be faithful through the tear-her-down years. #TaylorSwift
CNN: Taylor Swift's attorneys are threatening legal action against Florida college student @jxck_sweeney who posts publicly available flight tracking data from the superstar's private jet. #adsb#aviation#tracking#law#taylorswift
"It’s in Biden’s interest to expand the gender gap and make abortion the litmus test for this election. One way to do that is to elevate the crackpot conspiracy theories that show the Trump movement has an unwholesome obsession with a much-loved young woman who is the emblem of female independence and a strong supporter of reproductive freedom. If the GOP insists on acting like freaks, then Democrats should embrace the gift they have been given."
Jonathan Weiler on reasons the right freaks out about Taylor Swift:
"In the past few years, an ocean of pixels has been spilled documenting and analyzing the shift, especially of White men, but also to a lesser extent, non-White men, to the Republican Party. Less discussed has been the movement among women, notably young, unmarried women, to the Democratic Party."
"Whereas more educated voters once tended to vote Republican in greater numbers, and less educated voters Democratic, those tendencies have flipped. Gender is part of the story here, insofar as the increasing support among young women for the Democratic Party has coincided with their increasing college attendance. Indeed, women now significantly outnumber men among recent college graduates and in law schools and medical schools."
#AmandaMarcotte: Women are fed up, & it will hurt the GOP in Nov. "As Adam Serwer recently wrote in the Atlantic, Republicans hope the overt misogyny is "a way to expand their base of support beyond the core of white Xian conservatives," by reaching some men of color & non-religious men. The strategy has had some success. . . But what Bannon & his crew failed to account for is that women can also vote, & they are getting increasingly angry about this crap." https://www.salon.com/2024/02/02/taylor-swift-stanley-cups-and-a-brewing-backlash-to-magas-sexist-snobbery/
