I am a victim of many things.You ever read how Edward Bernays wrote that celebrities are instrumental in the role of propaganda?So says Swifty when picking up her Artist of the Year award.
Taylor Swift is raking in album sales since she endorsed Democrats
“This award and every single award given out tonight were voted on by the people, and you know what else is voted on by the people?” Swift asked. “It is the midterm elections on Nov. 6. Get out and vote. I love you guys.”
Far from ruining her career it would seem that her record sales are going through the roof.
In the hours and now days since her post, four of Swift’s albums have climbed back up the iTunes album sales charts. Reputation, which was released 11 months ago, was ranked No. 32 on Saturday, moved up to No. 25 the day of her Instagram post and hit No. 14 by Tuesday afternoon, as reported by a site that maintains records of album sales on iTunes. As W magazine noted, her album 1989 re-entered the top 100 on Monday and hit No. 74 by Tuesday. Another chart tracker, Pop Vortex, listed Wednesday that two more of her albums are currently on iTunes’ top 200: 2012’s Red was at No. 129 and 2008’s Fearlesswas at No. 130 as of press time.
I do believe that young people let themselves down by not voting. They allow power to be vested in selfish bad people like trump and his gruesome crew.
Anyway at least the OP message is surely something that supporters from both sides can agree on.:
GET OUT AND VOTE !!!
Are you familiar with that?
. . . . . or are you just a victim of propaganda?
Like Brexit where knowledgeable people outnumbered the sheeple in an attempt to reclaim their sovereignty? Sure seems to me that the "will of the people" doesn't mean shit unless it "jives" with the collective wants and needs of the "state". You are one of the sheeple for sure.
