No, misleadingly overspecific, but don't worry, I fixed it:

I was just listening to the OAN coverage of this (through another channel commenting on it). You know what genuinely shocked me?
She's not even playing the halftime show! They made up this batshit insane conspiracy theory because she's going to be attending the Superbowl!
It was some of the most deranged, grotesque propaganda I've ever seen. The idea that people take this as serious reporting is genuinely disturbing.
I thought these guys swore off football along with their Bud Light?
They did. They just don't have shame or a spine.
No no that was the NBA with BLM support during covid
Do they not know that a majority of NBA players are black? That was rhetorical; if they didn't know Rage Against the Machine was political, of course they didn't know about the NBA.
The disgusting but is that, as far as I can tell, Swift is a genuinely decent person. She's stayed out of controversy and politics and bullshit.
So encouraging her fans to vote put a target on her? Fucking disgusting. The press should hound these people, make them say out loud what issue they have with her, arguably patriotic, statement.
She has never said who to vote for either. Just keeps saying 'vote'.
And, apparently, there is a pretty big measurable jump in registrationevery time she puts out a message about it.
Getting people to participate in democracy is biased against Republicans, duh!
can some one explain what happened?
Fox News did a report claiming that Taylor Swift is a Pentagon psy-op, and the only reason the Chiefs are in the game at all is so she can endorse Biden.
lmao wtf thanks for the explanation!
All because she told people to vote. She didn't say who to vote for, just to vote.
it's implied, because evil people only win when good people become careless
They've straight up said that voting is the enemy of their party.
I like to think of "explanation" as a word that describes providing a logical basis for something that is not well understood.
When reality is this fucky, I think we need a new word for explanation.
autopsy?
Right wing idiots believe that the Super Bowl is rigged. They believe the left is is specifically rigging it for the Chiefs to give TSwift a larger platform to support Biden.
thanks for the explanation!
Taylor Swift is, according to conservatives, is part of a psyops plan to endorse Joe Biden for POTUS.
I cannot believe I'm seeing these words strung together and thinking, "Oh. Got it. That makes sense in 2024.)
A psyop is when people like the candidate I don't like
thanks for the explanation!
The NFL is now part of the deep state and is rigging the super bowl so that Taylor Swift can push Joe Biden. They're extra mad, because they're god king Trump took a beating this past week.
Tbh I'm pretty sure the NFL is rigged, this just isn't why.
Let's pretend for a moment that I believe in the concept of alpha males.
The constant need to tell people that you are an alpha male is the most beta trait I've seen.
In a world where the theoretical alpha males exist, they don't need to tell you they are alpha, they show it by their actions.
Wolves in captivity based on bad science be like
Wolf 1: okay who should be our leader
Wolf 2: I'm an alpha so I should be
All wolves: haha loser nah you're cringe
Not Swift endorsing anything but Trumplethinskin 😥
Can someone who knows how to make memes make this:
Take the Kanye West/Taylor Swift VMA speech where he takes her microphone and paste Taylor Swift's face over Kanye's, then paste Travis Kelce's face over 2009 Swift. Then swap her award for a Lombardi trophy.
Have a caption of her saying "Yo Travis, I'm really happy for you, I'mma let you finish, but Joe Biden is the real winner of the Super Bowl"
That's exactly the message I got. Probably they are blocking any prompt with Taylor Swift in it
Yes. Assholes taking away all the good wholesome fun
Yeah a lot of famous people are mad because the AI deep fakes are getting kinda good
Ask chatgpt
Vince McMahon is in the other corner plotting to bring back the XFL
“Who do I have to shit on to get this alternative football league going again”
XFL merged with the USFL and is now the UFL for this upcoming season.
Yes. I'm not sure this is a political meme, but yes.
Swift has a good track record of encouraging her fans to vote (in political elections). And some people on the republican/alt right side of the political spectrum disagree with that message apparently.
I think this qualifies
It's just the toxic male version of astrology.
"Alpha" meaning early stage of development
I’m just tired of her. She’s very mid to me.
Why do I keep getting notifications about this comment?
Who honestly cares? I don't like football or Taylor Swift, and I'm a little overdue for my monthly wilderness time to get away from modern bullshit for a couple of days. Soon though.
