Huh, what did I miss?
Apparently the 6'8, 260 lb future Hall of Fame professional footballer player she's dating is gay because.... she's over 30.
Also, she thinks things like women should have a choice over what happens to their bodies and that you should be allowed to use the name you like best so that's a problem too.
Totally sane and normal stuff.
And she told people to go vote and the right really didn't like that
Not even "vote Democrat," she just urged people to vote period. And linked to Vote.org encouraging people to research what would be on their ballot. The fact that the right takes this as an attack on them isn't surprising to anyone.
Funny thing is they're both the same age lul. Perfectly normal and reasonable for people to date people their own age. I guess the right just wants to date the cradle.
They just think women over 30 are worthless.
Right? There are so many layers to how twisted and bigoted that message is, it packs so much in it. People got paid very well for forging such fine propaganda, this is brand stuff, not some walmart quickfix. There's so many levels...
I think it's being funded by the Russians, but I am also really into completely unrealistic conspiracy theories, so ymmv.
It is sickening that it has stooped to this level. Just comprehend the number of bigoted points of view expressed there. I could write an essay on that.
It's almost diabolical how refined it is, how much time they took with it. I have been following the development of right wing propaganda for over two decades, and I never fail to get stunned over how blatant it is, and how well engineered.
I would highly recommend to read "Banana Republicans": https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/593702.Banana_Republicans
Once you see it, you can't unsee it. Then Manufacturing Consent is essential lore, but the hole goes deep. No other conspiracy theories needed- that is the conspiracy.
He's six foot eight? How tall is Swift? Jesus.
Maybe 6'5, but the guy's an absolute unit.
Swift could easily be 6'5" in the right heals.
Some say he’s gay https://twitter.com/OwenBenjamin/status/1752422032187470011
I think you are caught up
Edit: Neat the Pentagon had to say it’s stupid

My favourite quote mentioned in that article courtesy of Fox News
Because apparently we want misinformation?
Why the fuck would the billionaire Taylor Swift be after the millionaire Travis Kelce's money?
You say that like any other part of it makes sense
The others are conspiracy logic, basically "I don't know so I'm assuming X" but that last one just doesn't make any sense with known values of wealth.
You made me audibly ha ha laugh! :)
Wow.
That's the level their own psyops operate at these days? It's impressive in its stupidity and terrifying in its efficacy.
