Taylor Swift awarded Person of the Year, and MAGAs are frantic.

[Dekster]

I have no idea why Taylor Swift being awarded the Person of the Year Award should be a political issue, but it's plain to see MAGAs are determined to make it a political issue. I suspect the fact that Ms swift has more social media followers than trump, and regularly draws crowds that dwarf trump's rallies makes her an enemy of MAGAs. For what ever reason, the right wing is all aflutter over the award, and are making their displeasure well known on social media. Oddly, it doesn't seem to be an issue for non MAGA posters. Exactly why is the right dragging her into the political relm?

She makes clickable headlines would be my guess. I mean you could try to drag Alice Waters under the bus, but reporters just aren't gonna spend time on it if it doesn't get clicks and ancient chefs don't get clicks.

As usual lefties have it backwards. If someone makes fun of Time's selection or criticizes a pop culture babe they get frantic. Nobody under 15 years old really gives a damn about her one way or the other.

Or Time.

It's his opinion, no better, and no worse than your opinion.

some have more knowledge than other, thus making their opinions based upon actual facts.

When we start allowing 12 year-olds to vote, I'll worry

All those 12 year olds grew up dude. Taylor Swift fans are in their 20s. Lol

 

[Freedomisneverfree]

'cause taylor is very much a liberal & she has a very huge following. she just had a massive registration sign up happen, just by asking her fans to do it.

& that makes MAGATs sweat.

Awhh but many young folks hate Biden now because he sympathizes with the Israels. I wonder who they'll vote for?? Not Biden..

 

[Anomalism]

Also you can pollute an anecdote to make anything look any way. Be careful what you believe.

 

[Mr Natural]

If nobody cares, why are so many MAGAs melting down on social media?

Because they’re assholes.

My opinion is that not that many will be swayed by her politics.
Just like Bruce Springsteen's failed attempt to sway the voters back in 2008.

I think that is where the rubber meets the road.
I am happy for Swift and her success,

Swift did not just rule the music business. She lifted local economies, encouraged voter registrations and brought more viewers to professional football. The Eras Tour grossed more than $900 million in ticket sales, Billboard estimates.

The U.S. Travel Association noted the total economic impact of Swift's "Eras Tour" could exceed $10 billion. Northeastern University called it "Swiftonomics" or "Taylornomics," with associate professor Alicia Modestino praising Swift as "a smart businesswoman" in addition to "a very talented performer."

Sources confirm to PEOPLE the pop superstar — who's set to play six sold-out shows at Inglewood's SoFi Stadium — recently gave bonuses totaling over $55 million to everyone (from her dancers to riggers, sound technicians and catering, among others) working on her massive show

Taylor Swift has supported food banks and cancer patients

That includes her support of friends, cancer patients, sexual assault survivors, disaster relief organizations and food banks along her Eras Tour. The list goes on. Take her steady support of friends who have fallen on hard times.

Speaking for myself I could care less, but if you want to make a mountain out of mole hill knock yourself out.

They say she got 35,000 people to register to vote. I do not care who they vote for but I like the idea of more people voting

 

[playtime]

you know who must be really pissed off?

kanye.

 

[C_Clayton_Jones]

Award should be a political issue

Maybe Time is trying to turn down the political heat a bit.

 

[postman]

damn bleeding heart liberal.

Independant of any politics, Swift has done more to help more people than probably anyone else this year. From her economic impact helping every venue she tours, to her huge charity work.

The only people saying bad things about her, are deplorable.

"They say"? Maybe, but, who really knows, was a questionnaire sent out?
I'm not trying to be confrontational, it just begged the question.
