I’m very much on board with riling up the hornet’s nest of Karens on this platform; I need to pop some popcorn. And, yes, so much support for Swift, a serviceable pop singer, is simply an incoherent mash of principle-less pseudo-feminist claptrap being downed by morons as if it’s cake.
Swifties fans are heavily networked and mostly united against right wing politics in their country - not just in the US. That is valuable, even if she is crooning nonsense.
It’s just such a weird place to place one’s desire for feminist solidarity and community. You know? And I don’t think it’s valuable at all, it’s all just vibes-based pseudo-feminist incoherence. You know?
In fact, Swift fandom is perhaps the worst manifestation of modern “feminism” imaginable, as it has no real core, just vibes, and those participating seem to equate irrational group membership and general vibes with principled feminism. It’s all form, no substance.
It’s fascinating that this woman, who has the unrealistic body of a Barbie doll, who’s marrying a 6ft5in football player who’s essentially a male blow up doll, who’s best friends with Mahomes’ Maga princess wife, who takes pictures with right wing pod bros is…the avatar of modern feminism???!!??!?
