Indeed. Perhaps she’s a successful woman… and that’s why?
@georgetakei@universeodon.com With her usage of private jets, she is the biggest polluter of every single person in the world.
@georgetakei@universeodon.com she is to non magats, what kid rock is to magats. She’s better at it.
@georgetakei@universeodon.com I’m not really a Taylor Swift fan (I think I can name about three of her songs) but I greatly admire her as a business person.
@georgetakei@universeodon.com It’s the same reason various folks on the right go berserk over hijabis.
A hijab is a very visible “unavailable, unattainable” marker, which is intolerable to anyone with patriarchal supremacist beliefs.
Even the usual run of fact-averse folks on the right can’t delude themselves into believing they’re in Ms. Swift’s league, so it’s the same “unavailable, unattainable” presence and the same “this is not how I command the world to be organized” tantrum.

She’s a billionaire. We do not make exceptions.
She got young people to vote and that’s no good.
@georgetakei@universeodon.com
@georgetakei@universeodon.com “she got a lot of young people to register to vote” that is exactly their problem. They know young people don’t vote for them.
@georgetakei@universeodon.com For some time now, it’s been a popular pastime to see others hating someone, and jump on the bandwagon just to be a part of it. There have been a lot of celebrities over the last few years that have been on the receiving end of some very unearned vitriol.
@georgetakei@universeodon.com She encourages women to vote. A crime according to republicans.
@georgetakei@universeodon.com The right operates on a zero sum game. If some one else is happy, it steals some of their happiness. It is pretty miserable existence.

The ‘getting young people to vote’ bit might be a minus point for the Fox crowd, I’m thinking?@georgetakei@universeodon.com I have heard, from a reliable source, that when she receives any form of negativity, she will simply shake it off.
@georgetakei@universeodon.com It’s about jealousy- folks are jealous and envious of her success.
@georgetakei@universeodon.com My wife and I don’t hate her. We acknowledge her talent. We simply don’t see that she warrants all the attention. The constant TS news, especially the gushing, is tiresome.
However, that may be just a sign of the times. The polarized digital age where you are either 0 or 1, left or right, up or down with no comfortable center.@georgetakei@universeodon.com It’s because she encourages people to register to vote, especially young people.
