Hip Hip Hooray!
My girlfriend was actually kind of shocked that this news made it to my corner of the internet yesterday. Crypto Libertarians tend to lean right, and the right seems to have made it their mission to hate on Taylor Swift. Of course perhaps that's all the more reason why news like this is so pervasive, if only to be an NPC hater.
One of the most unbreakable rules of fame is that the more people who love you the more people are destined to hate you. There's no way around this, especially for someone like Taylor Swift who is associated with the Left and girls with purple hair. Although... she is currently getting quite a bit of backlash for saying silent on the genocide in Gaza; a topic that has been absolute career suicide for a lot of people, especially within an entertainment industry that is oozing with Zionists and Imperialists.
Swift has the most insanely zealous fanbase of potentially any entertainer who has ever existed. There's an entire sect of irrational conspiracy theorists trying to guess what she'll do next while interpreting every action or announcement as one of her Easter Eggs. In 2022 a guy named Roger Alvarado was arrested by police for breaking into her house and sleeping in her bed while she was away. It's due to circumstances such as these that she tends to maintain extreme privacy in her personal life.
Apparently even Swift's publicist and PR manager is famous by proxy. I did not know about this person until yesterday but clearly she's well known for how flawlessly she's handled Taylor's career. Interesting.
What was the left's response to Taylor comparing herself to an English teacher and her man as the PE teacher?
"Is that really appropriate when the American education system is falling apart under Trump?"
Travis Kelce's dad went off and gave a very sloppy interview to a local news station in Cleveland of all places (maybe he's got a friend there?) and gave a lot of personal details revolving around this event. The main thing I remember is that he said multiple times that Travis was going to pop the question earlier but had "cold feet".
My guess is that Tree Paine has basically attempted to scrub this from the internet as I can no longer find it anywhere... not that I'm looking very hard but it should have been very easy to find. Now Youtube and the search engines are full of all the other interviews that don't air any dirty laundry. This is the kind of micromanagement that Taylor Swift's career is privy to on a daily basis... and it's somehow not even unjustified considering how irrational people are about this particular celebrity.
Ah yes well both of the people I live with are huge fans so I'm subjected to all kinds of information that I wouldn't be otherwise. Personally I like a couple of her songs but I'm honestly not a huge fan of any particular musician. My favorite song thus far by her is probably Anti-Hero... as I always appreciate a sarcastic tongue-in-cheek introspective song that questions one's own actions to promote personal growth.
I can't name any other pop star that was able to breakout of the genre and just do whatever they wanted with a new style in every album with such overwhelming success. Impressive to be honest. Swift haters label her as a talentless hack that got lucky... when in reality it's pretty obvious that she's well educated and talented; whether or not you enjoy the art is irrelevant to this assessment.
Did you hear my covert narcissism I disguise as altruism
Like some kind of congressman? (Tale as old as time)
And it's disingenuous or just blindly ignorant to imply otherwise.
Taylor Swift is so absurdly ubiquitous that people who HATE her have been caught quoting her multiple times without even realizing it.
Play stupid games win stupid prizes.
You wouldn't last an hour in the asylum that they raised me.
The virality of some of these one-liners can not be denied.
I've actually been wanting to write a post on Taylor Swift for quite some time because I think it would be absolutely hilarious if she launched her own crypto token. How perfect would that be? Could legit just call it SWIFT as a sarcastic way to fling shade at the traditional SWIFT banking system created in the 1970's.
It's basically a free win for a couple of different reasons, the main one being Taylor Swift is already the leader of a ravenous cult, so the token is guaranteed to succeed (probably even into the long term). All that's needed is a good way to distribute the token to fans without the ability to dump it outright or Sybil attack it.
Unfortunately I imagine she is highly skeptical towards crypto, as she is one of the only celebrities who directly asked SBF if the products she would be endorsing were "unregistered securities". The second she asked that FTX cut off contact. What obvious foreshadow of things to come!
Taylor Swift is engaged and people care way too much, as per usual. Our cultural obsession with fame is a huge red flag that will echo into the future. Personally I can't understand it and can't even imagine being so bored with my own life that I have to live vicariously through someone else in the public sector. These people are simply not that interesting, but here I am writing a post on it; adding fuel to the fire along with everyone else. I'm the problem, it's me.
