The Palestinians are also hostages - not prisoners.

*Nobody* ever sent me as many death threats as I recieved from Swifties when I speculated that Taylor Swift was probably a republican. (13/13)

And from a personal standpoint im just gunna say that I used to be a semi-large content creator on another platform, I’ve been attacked and harrassed by many groups of people including raging MAGA conservatives and incels. (12/13)

And her fans fall for that propaganda every time, insisting that she’s really this altruistic and selfless person - when they literally do not know her *at all*. And they refuse to look at the evidence proving she’s a smart, marketing-savy, but ego-driven capitalist, at her core. (11/13)

To me, this is one of the biggest problems with Taylor Swift. She claims to have some kind of feminist agenda - when her only real agenda is making as much money as possible. (10/13)

And they think by worshipping her like they do, that somehow brings them closer to her (the person) when in reality it’s just financial support of her (the brand). (9/13)

What I see is one of the most influencial and financially powerful white women in the world *constantly* milking her fanbase (again - mostly young women and girls, vulnerable to exploitation) for all the money they can possibly give her. (8/13)

And sure, from a capitalist standpoint it was a genius strategy. But I’m an anticapitalist. (7/13)

She was the first big artists to really merge those two identities early on in her career. (6/13)

She has abused the influence she has always had over young white women and girls so much that she has convinced them they have some mysitcal tie to each other, some true friendship, rather than maintaining a health distance between her Self and her Brand. (5/13)

And don’t get me wrong - Taylor manufactured her fan base to act like this on purpose, and that’s part of why *i* critique her so much. (4/13)

Like, maybe if her fans were just normal fans who liked her music, rather than people obsessed with literally worshipping her as a god, and claiming she can do no wrong, it would be easier to forget she exists, like i do most other billionaire celebrities. (3/13)

Ok i hear you and we should critique all billionaires and all racist people and blah blah blah - but nobody is shoved down our throats quite like taylor swift. Nobody’s fan base is as rabid and defensive as taylor swift’s. (2/13)

Bringing this short essay I wrote on threads over here, for your viewing pleasure #taylorswift

The original post from user mama_wilder said:

“I’ll offer my 2 cents on how Taylor spends her millions when you start criticizing famous men for how they spend theirs.” (1/13)

Was just called a “liberal cuck boy with no culture of his own” on threads, so I’m visiting bluesky again to see what the vibes are like over here

The part we need to contend with is that Elon is also a product of liberal fascination. He started gaining popularity amongst liberals and the left because of Tesla, climate and clean energy, only for him, and other technocrats to be right alongside Trump at his inauguration.

Experiencing this again as my feed is completely devoid of anyone talking about israel committing more atrocities this morning, though its always full of anti-trump content. Where are the actual leftists on here???

aaaaaAAAAAHHHHH

“You put carrots on a pizza??” Yes, and it’s friggin delicious.

There isn’t a male loneliness epidemic - there’s a loneliness issue in our society in general, and men tend to have the most aggressive/unacceptable responses to complex emotions like “i’m lonely.”

I want to see a masterchef challenge where the chefs have to cook for extreme picky eaters. Make me a fancy dinner that’s vegetarian and doesn’t have a SINGLE tomato or any citrus flavors!!

Love is blind has taught me that people from Minnesota call tchotchkes “knicknacks.”

Hostages are innocent and prisoners are criminals, so the HEAVY implication is that the israelis being held against their will are all innocent civilians, whereas the palestinians are *all* guilty of something. They are not.

I understand that its part of how sneaky language is and blah blah but it still really pisses me off to listen to NPR and hear them call israelis “hostages” and palestinians “prisoners” every. single. time. So fcking insidious !!

not THAT much worse 🥳

Did you guys know that if you don’t ski for a few years, you actually get worse at it? Wild.

We really need to start mass harassing people who casually refer to actual human beings as “NPCs”

Cooper is laying in bed with her head tilted to the side - and oliver (orange cat) is sleeping on top of her face, with his paws safely held in cooper’s hand.

Us, every single morning:

I know love is blind is kinda hard to watch at first bc they’re boring in the pods - but the sheer awkwardness when couples meet for the first time is so hard to watch - which somehow makes it great television. Like i literally cover my eyes sometimes because I’m so uncomfortable.

Thoughts and prayers for the unhealed bisexual with the internalized homophobia on this season of love is blind.
