There is a Certain Type of leftist/progressive who can’t shut the fuck up about Taylor Swift, and even if I wasn’t a fan of her music, I would find it off-putting

No one has anything new to add. It’s just a bunch of bunch of people who read the same substacks and watch the same TikToks shouting “billionaire!!!” (most of her net worth is the ownership of her extremely valuable intellectual property) or “private jet!!” (she's one of the few people who has no business flying commercial; mere rumors of her presence would shut down any airport) or “insufficient support of progressive causes!!” (I agree, but she’s been vocally anti-MAGA, donates many millions, and pays her employees exceptionally well; in general I’d rather have fewer celebrities talking about politics)

I get annoyed by the stans who can't ever acknowledge a misstep or a genuine critique, but I'm equally bored and put off by fellow progressives who can't move the hell on from this topic. This petty, doesn’t-matter, bullshit discourse is genuinely a symptom of why we don't win

You don’t need to moralize your dislike of Taylor Swift. You can just be normal and ignore her

@Lou_Bloom36 @worldofreel as much as I’m not the #1 fan of David Koepp’s writing, he’s been screenwriting for over 40 years and is an extremely accomplished screenwriter 😭 i’m sure he’s not using AI

@georgiem2000 @Rehaank_ and he does have the goodwill narrative of being “owed” an Oscar because it is insane that man is Oscarless

@Stellagfr6 @imperfectfordre Taylor has lived in New York for 12 years, and not only does she have multiple songs about the city of New York, she has an entire album dedicated to and inspired by the city. Below is a picture of her performing at halftime for the Knicks when she was 12 years old.

@bohochicas @PopCrave donald trump has personally insulted her publically numerous times, why would she be remotely MAGA??

@thamosdeaf this might be the first time in my life i’ve heard meryl streep discourse 💀 i certainly would hesitate to call someone who has made a movie in virtually every genre possible someone who has an “uninteresting” career at the least … she’s also the most beloved actress in the biz

@chudjr69 @hamiltonnolan @TheGarden popular vote or not, new york city is not letting a self-entitled, draft-dodging, convicted rapist who doesn’t care about this country in the slightest appear on screen without showing him exactly what the greatest city in the world thinks about him and his presidency

[t @cynicalvertigo]

@astridherondale @cinematictalk even if you somehow believe neither west side story, bridge of spies, the post, the fabelmans, or ready player one were, at the very LEAST, “interesting”, genuinely calling steven spielberg “washed” is brainrotted 🤦 it’s 2026. we don’t have time for bullshit
