An Aunt bashed Swift. I almost never respond, but Im drinking and did so. This was my response. She had a meme of "i dont want Swift to be a role model" so I responded:

"Simply because she endorsed the opponent of the guy you like, who lied (shocker) about her supporting him with AI? When Taylor Swift exploits slave labor in the far east so she can profit and externalize factors of production let me know. When she takes away the rights of people to live their own lives as they see fit let me know. When her relatives get millions of dollars from Saudia Arabia in a scam deal, let me know. Otherwise, she has no role in the destruction of this planet and the exploitation of its people, she sings songs and the ire about her is misplaced grievance.

Swift is merely a singer. That's all she is. If your guy can't appeal to at least a few of her zillion fans then maybe he's doing it wrong. Just saying. I see no Republican people complaining about Kid Rock or Lee Greenwood singing and supporting Republican politicians. Other than the fact they can barely fill a phone booth compared to Swift."
