These people are unhinged.

So....talk to me like I'm a MAGA moron with less brain cells than teeth and a family tree that doesn't always fork in all the right places.

What's the problem here? Seriously. Even if Taylor Swift were personally touring the country, knocking on every single door, and telling people to vote for Biden. So? Isn't that what their staffers should also be doing so they can get re-elected? So what if she stands on the podium if the Chiefs win the Super Bowl and says that everybody in the stadium and watching at home should vote for Biden?

Like at what point does it cross from the political activism that thousands of people across the country engage in all the time to some kind of "psyop" (side note: This is the stupidest term I have ever heard, by the way), "election interference", or whatever other term they can come up with to imply what she's doing is illegal?

Are they scared that Taylor Swift commands a bigger audience than Trump? Are they worried about millions of Swifties marching in lockstep to the ballot box to vote for Biden? Are they really all that concerned because a celebrity who has so far shown absolutely no desire even dip a toe into that political shitstorm might say something that might cause people to vote for Biden?

Are these people seriously getting all worked up over a celebrity who has shown no desire to give political commentary at all simply because she might endorse Biden? Or is this another situation where they're pre-emptively setting Taylor Swift of all people up as the person to blame if Trump loses? Last time he did this, he said that everything is rigged and that's the only way he could lose. Is the party really setting up for a round 2 where they blame Taylor fucking Swift?

Because that's not going to work out for them. Taylor Swift is probably one of the biggest celebrities in the country right now, maybe only rivalled by people like the Rock. And that's a hell of a maybe. Do they think pissing off a shit-ton of Swifties in red states is going to work? Fucking LOL. Try that and they'll be lucky if all that happens is a few purple states go blue. Swifties are not going to be abandoning Taylor Swift on the word of Donald fucking Trump.

We should consider it a faux pas for a news organization to report on the punditry of other news org that is "two steps below it".

If nbcnews wants to cover something "conservatives" are saying, they shouldn't reach deep. They should consider the twitter account End Wokeness to be so far beneath it that reporting on it directly should feel dirty.

Now if fox news or even newsmax picks it up, then maybe start attacking this nonsense. Right now it seems to the crazies that we are taking them seriously. Why else would NBC News cover it?

*Football team that’s been a dominant presence in the league for the last several seasons wins AFC Championship again and will be returning to the Super Bowl*

Conservatives: TAYLOR SWIFT DID THIS TO GET JOE BIDEN REELECTED!!!1!!

WTF? She probably has more fans than the NFL and these morons think she’s getting signal boosted?

Obviously this is a psyop to boost awareness that the Chiefs exist.

It bothers me so much to know how stupid I am and also know there are so many people even stupider than me.

MAGA has chosen the wrong boogeyman this time.

There's gonna be three sides to the next civil war: secede, stay, and the swifties; and the swifties are going to have the largest army. I don't know why they think picking this fight is in any way intelligent.

Telling people to vote, either in a general sense or for a specific party, is just communication. That's not a psyop. Simply appearing at football games is also not a psyop.

There are many fine establishments that allow you to bet on the outcome of NFL games.

So all those conservatives are placing bets now, right?

could be part of an orchestrated plot to drum up hype for the Democratic Party.

What if it was? Then what? Isn't that just marketing? Commercialization? I mean... what? Why even care?

Oh no. Please don't target Taylor Swift. Oh gosh. Conservatives, this will just ruin everything for all other people. You can't do this. Her like bazillion fans are definitely too young to vote. Ah. No. Stop.

I hope she kneels on the stage.

The same dipshits also think Ted (pedophile) Nugent is an American hero.

I wasn't aware it worked like that, that because a certain team won, everyone has to do what Swift wnats...

In fact I'm sure it doesn't....

I know Conservative arguments don't often make sense, and by design are meant to be catchy slogans more than accurate precise arguments, but... shit sometimes they make it too obvious.

While we're on the subject, register to vote

This is the best summary I could come up with:

Swift’s appearance on the field following last night’s game between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Baltimore Ravens sparked a fresh wave of social media vitriol and the resurgence of some conspiring that her near-dominant place in U.S. pop culture must be the result of some sort of psychological manipulation effort — known more colloquially in fringe circles as a “psy-op.”

Vivek Ramaswamy, who dropped out of the Republican primary race this month, shared his own conspiracy theory on X Monday, suggesting that the Super Bowl will be rigged to favor “an artificially culturally propped-up couple” whom he believes will reveal a “major presidential endorsement” this fall.

The Pentagon shut down similar right-wing accusations earlier this month after conservative commentator Jesse Watters claimed that Swift was a potential “front for a covert political agenda.”

In 2019, she shared an open letter urging Tennessee Sen. Lamar Alexander, a Republican, to support the federal Equality Act, which would enshrine protections for LGBTQ+ people.

The singer netted the highest favorability rating of any public figure tested in NBC News’ November 2023 national poll — with 40% of registered voters saying they have a positive opinion of Swift and only 16% saying they hold a negative one.

Some online, including those in the football world, have wondered why right-wing pundits seem to concern themselves with Swift’s relationship with Chiefs’ tight end Travis Kelce.

The original article contains 890 words, the summary contains 229 words. Saved 74%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!

BWAHAHA THE EVIL PLOT TO TAKE OVER THE GOVERNMENT BY CAREFULLY CONTROLLING THE POSITION OF A POINTY BALL IN A FIELD OVER A SPAN OF TIME IS UNFOLDING EXACTLY AS I HAVE FORESEEN!

NOW WE JUST NEED TO CONTROL THE POSITION OF A BOUNCY BALL ON A SHINY FLOOR AND MY CURSE WILL BE UNLEASHED, ENSURING THAT ANY DIMPLED BALL HIT BY A CONSERVATIVE'S METAL STICK WILL LAND IN TREES, SAND, OR WATER.

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Pentagon spokesperson Sabrina Singh described Watters’ commentary as a “conspiracy theory.”

“We are going to shake it off,” she told Politico, referencing a popular Swift song.

Unexpected Pentagon humor

Let's say it's all true. Who gives a fuck? Endorsements have been a thing forever.

Do they want to burn her at the stake for witch craft like it's fucking 1724 because she's controlling people's minds and stealing their ~~erections~~ elections?

all this bullshit does is make this heavy metal head want to listen to Swift. Good job numbnuts.
