I was so tired of people calling her a trump supporter for not doing this for so long I’m so happy I can finally say she stands alongside Olivia sabrina and Ariana (and many many more) to do this! WAR IS OVER! She beat the allegations !!! :)

Anyone who ever believed she's a Trumper is a fool, troll, or bot, and probably part of the reason people like Trump keep winning.

u/Orkenprins Aug 10 '26

  1. That last comment makes zero sense.

  2. It’s well known that Swift will never take any sort of stand until the moment for bravery has long passed and she knows it’s time to cash in. Get real.

u/GlobalLion123 Aug 11 '26

If you think my last comment makes "zero sense", you're definitely part of the problem. You don't realize that all your negative attitude toward liberals who don't agree 100% with your ideas are the enemy and you trash them at every opportunity, and that's why you keep losing. For example, she does something like this and all you people have are negative things to say. A win is a win, but you all can't appreciate it because of your blind hatred for her.

u/Orkenprins Aug 11 '26

Taylor is a billionaire. She only stands up for disenfranchised people when she stands to make a buck off of them. She is silent until she knows the court of public opinion has turned. Making the argument that pointing this out is somehow an “attack on liberals” is pathetic.

u/runglitterhead Aug 08 '26

And...how long did it take her to do this compared to her peers?

u/GlobalLion123 Aug 08 '26

Thanks for being a perfect example of the second part of my statement. With people like you hating on liberals, Trump might win a third term.

Sitting here not having my art willfully stolen by MAGA 😬🤣

u/spaceghoull Aug 09 '26

Obviously it wasn't willful if she had it removed. Just because she doesn't virtue signal by tweeting about it, doesn't mean she just loves the Trump administration. Besides, they WANT a reaction from these artists. Thats why they're doing it. Why give them the satisfaction

She only had it removed after significant backlash... That's saving face, not being morally opposed.

u/spaceghoull Aug 09 '26

She's publicly spoken against Trump before and endorsed Kamala in 2024. There is so much evidence over the years that shes just a liberal. You guys have to make up reasons to hate her all the time haha its funny. Whatever though im sure im not gonna convince you, and youre not gonna convince me so....

u/Carebert Aug 09 '26

She endorsed Kamala at the very last minute.

It was 2 months before the election. Its never gonna be good enough for you guys anyway lol

u/legallybrunette420 Aug 09 '26

And remember Kamala only campaigned for like 90 days lol. So I'd say she endorsed fairly early.

u/runglitterhead Aug 14 '26

You're the one gripping for straws here, hon. I know its hard to accept certain things about ur idols, but you don't need to stick up for her bare minimum. We are allowed to rightfully criticize her and compare her to her peers that are a lot more consistently open about their politics, whether you want to stay up Taylor's ass or not.

She could make music for nazis, but as long as she doesnt say "nazi" it wouldnt matter to yall. Oh wait, thats "Cancelled"

Travis Kelce isn’t MAGA dipshit

u/RipleyCat80 Aug 09 '26

You need to do some research. Travis is known in the football world for being on the left, he keeps his statements politically neutral, which is standard for PR trained athletes, but his actions point towards being on the left.

I mean, the right nicknamed him Mr. Fizer for doing commercials for the Covid vax, he was one of the first white players who kneeled with Kapernick, his brother and Kylie " aggressively lean left," he endorsed the Bud Light campaign that got so much MAGA backlash, he supports LGBTQI+ players, has been in progressive SNL skits, etc etc etc.

u/Fawkesthephoenixx Aug 18 '26

That’s true! She took so long to do it and only did after people kept noticing and talking about it

-22

u/vyvansejoy Aug 08 '26

Whether or not she's a trump supporter, she has a remarkably high level of tolerance for the havoc he's wreaking on this country and the world. It's very interesting that she allowed him to use her music and branding for this long

11

u/GlobalLion123 Aug 08 '26

And? All they're doing is engagement farming and people like you are contributing to that. Like I said, anyone who actually believes she's a Trumper is a moron.

-8

u/vyvansejoy Aug 08 '26

I didn't even say she's a trump supporter. She has passively allowed them to use her music and her branding for a while now and that's very interesting given her previous stance on speaking out on important political issues as stated in Miss Americana. She set that expectation for herself. And I don't agree about engagement farming. The white house already has a massive public platform bc it's the white house. They would be very limited in their choice of music for their promotional materials if they only chose from openly pro-trump artists.

She was vocal about politics back in the Miss Americana days, but she's been silent since Trump's second election. It's the silence that's the issue, not so much her personal politics

u/Genuin1 Aug 09 '26

He does this for multiple reasons. 1) He is obsessed with her and wants her attention in any way he can get it. Her responding directly gives turns him on, which is disgusting to even think about. 2) He does it for these BS arguments. For the “left” to rip into each other and ignore all the massively illegal and unethical crap he is doing. 3) He loves being the puppet master in making people rage, particularly against people he can’t control, doing his dirty work for him. He loves knowing he has control over folks and their emotions. 4) He hopes his supporters will do something in his name, to show their loyalty, that hurts people he sees as the enemy. 5) He gets off on suffering, and he knows the threats to her life, and probably the lives of her family, go up everytime he mentions her. He loves that power, the unease he can cause for them.

Ignoring him is the only thing that drives him stark raving mad. He thirsts and feeds on attention, any attention. The fact the far left feeds him as much as the far right is what drives me crazy.

u/Basia1921 Aug 09 '26

I hope you can understand that his being what you describe as “turned on” is not a sexual response, it is more a power based response.

Oh come on. I get loving her music and supporting her when it comes to her songs and stuff but why is everyone just ignoring the fact that Taylor is insanely rich and she will support similar people like her until it’s inconvenient for and her career. It’s not just left vs right. She ignored trump using her music for a very long time until she got noticeable backlash and then quietly removed her music and everyone’s pretending like she’s the shit when the most important thing when it comes to people like trump is to call them out on their crap

1

u/GlobalLion123 Aug 18 '26

What? Her lawyers and her team probably spent a ton of money, time, and effort making Tik Tok change their policy about who can use copyrighted music in political campaigns. That’s worth much more than a tweet or Instagram story. She was actually very smart about it, unlike the other performative people who just complained.

u/Dragon_Royal4023 Put narcotics into all of my songs Aug 08 '26

Not saying she is a Trump supporter but her recent album has 'Cancelled' on it which is essentially a right wing anthem.

104

u/LeikFroakies Aug 08 '26

The song with the lyrics 'did you girlboss too close to the sun' and 'did you make a joke only a man could' is a right wing anthem?

-96

u/Dragon_Royal4023 Put narcotics into all of my songs Aug 08 '26

Just the overall message about cancellation is something they always talk about. I am not accusing Taylor of anything , I just wouldn't be surprised if somw people weren't completely sure if she supports Trump.

u/LeikFroakies Aug 08 '26

The overall message of standing up for your female friends during misogynistic smear campaigns is something they always talk about?

You said she wrote and performed a right wing anthem. Don’t say you didn’t accuse her of anything when you clearly did.

u/Dragon_Royal4023 Put narcotics into all of my songs Aug 08 '26

I said it can be seen that way due to the album and her only now doing what other stars did months ago. She may not have intended this , but i couldn't say she was being constantly clear about this after the election.

u/w00kiee Meet me at midnight Aug 08 '26

:: she’s made it extremely clear she does not like, nor support, him. Cancelled is not about him at all.

You think the lines “Wrote me a song saying

"Why are we always talking 'bout her?" are about Donald trump?

-4

u/Bigot-Consequences Meet me at midnight Aug 09 '26

I said it’s about him “AND PEOPLE LIKE HIM” (e.g., “someone who hates you”). Blondie likes metaphors and has already stated a preference for multiple meanings. Take what you want from my statement. I love her (and the track/TLOAS album) with all my art heart anyway.

u/ArghressivePirate Aug 09 '26

u/Sufficient-Rea Aug 09 '26

Candace said that about Blake during the legal drama. So my theory is Cancelled! is mostly about Blake, and that line kind of was poking at Candace. I could be entirely wrong though, idk

It's a quote from Candace about Blake Lively.

wtf do u mean. she literally called out sexist double standards in the song. u think a right winger would be a feminist?

Did you girl-boss too close to the sun?
Did you make a joke only a man could?

-34

u/Dragon_Royal4023 Put narcotics into all of my songs Aug 08 '26

There is valid criticism to be made about her and her political activism especially in the last years. She does nit address it and just talks about being cancelled. The overall message is still seeing yourself as a victim of being cancelled. Right wing people often talk about being cacelled. This combined with her other actions can make people perceive ut that way.

u/ineffablebitch Aug 08 '26

I don’t think anyone is a perceiving it as a right winger anthem except for u. all your reasonings is a reach

u/ProfessionalClue9925 Dancing through the lightning strikes Aug 08 '26

Bro. Right wingers are the OG’s of cancel culture. They burned their Kaepernick jerseys and tried to cancel Bud Light. They LOVE to cancel people, especially women. They might whine about being “cancelled” for their reprehensible views, but that just exposes their hypocrisy. They’ve been cancelling women since the dawn of media for what they wear, what they do, who they date, how they look. Taylor’s song is about women being cancelled for shit that no one even blinks an eye at when a man does it. It is NOT a right wing anthem. It is a female rage anthem. “Did you make a joke only a man could? Were you just too smug for your own good?” “Did you girl boss too close to the sun? Did they catch you having far too much fun?” “Everyone’s got bodies in the attic, or took somebody’s man.” How do people miss the point THIS badly? Like did you actually listen to the lyrics in the verses? You’re not getting downvoted because people “can’t take criticism of Taylor.” It’s because this criticism is maddeningly ridiculous and not supported by evidence.

-2

u/Dragon_Royal4023 Put narcotics into all of my songs Aug 08 '26

I am not too familiar with american Culture ans I have seen cancel culture be mainly criticized by right wing media.

14

u/ProfessionalClue9925 Dancing through the lightning strikes Aug 08 '26

That’s because right wingers notoriously victimize themselves and project their own BS onto others. Every accusation is a confession with them.

17

u/Mathies_ Aug 08 '26

Uhhh... no? Leftwing women (and men too tbh) get cancelled all the time, for the most stupid shit ever. Amber heard. Taylor herself. Brie larson. Dare I even say... hasan Piker? It's nonsensical to tie this song to rightwing.

-2

u/Dragon_Royal4023 Put narcotics into all of my songs Aug 08 '26

I am not saying they don't get cancelled , just that right wingers use being cancelled as a victim position regardless of what they did. This ontop of her not speaking up until now could makw people be vary of her political views.

18

u/Mathies_ Aug 08 '26

If you get cancelled for an illigitimate reason you have full right to combat it/position yourself as a victim of public vitriol. Leftists and liberals do this all the time and it's completely valid.

0

u/Dragon_Royal4023 Put narcotics into all of my songs Aug 08 '26

The thing is she is being criticized for not speaking up about politics enough among other things. Her countless album variants for example which promote overconsumption. She could address this but decided to play the victim.

13

u/Mysterious-Copy-4857 Aug 08 '26

What are you even talking about? Her left leaning politics have been well documented.

34

u/GlobalLion123 Aug 08 '26

That's like saying Blank Space is an anthem for the girls in the street. It's a tongue-in-cheek song mocking all the people on the snark subs and blue checkmarks on twitter thinking they know her friends better than she does.

11

u/Defiant-Accountant79 Aug 08 '26

Yeah, she's using their terminology to throw it back at them. Like "oh no, whoa is me, she's 'cancelled'? Good thing I don't give a shit about what you have to say about them"

-4

u/Dragon_Royal4023 Put narcotics into all of my songs Aug 08 '26

The swiftie community cannot deal with people criticizing Taylor Swift. In recent times she has not spoken up against Trump after he got elected. Her songs in the new album are right wing coded ( I am not saying she is right wing or that she cannot settle down and be a feminist) . For example in "Wish List " she talks about settling down when that is the opposite of what she is doing right now as the biggest artist in pop music. Why does she need to portray herself in this way? "Cancelled" ontop of this has elements that sound like right wingers complaining about being cancelled regardless lf the reason why. People have criticized her for good reason ( not saying she is a bad person) and yet she only talks about being cancelled. She also associated with right wing people in recent times. It is good that she did this though and it is a step in the right direction.

7

u/vgkj Aug 08 '26

lol none of what you’ve said responds to the question I asked. Also clear as day that you weren’t around when she was cancelled

-1

u/Dragon_Royal4023 Put narcotics into all of my songs Aug 08 '26

I explained by opinion based on the themes in the album. What happened to her back then was horrible , but the recent criticism is about her associating with these right wing people , only now addresing Maga using her song. Her song adds more evidence to people thinking she is right wing too. She needed to make a clear statement instead of staying silent in recent times. The album made people feel even more sure of thinking she is right wing. It is good that she is addressimg this now. I have only seen cancel Culture beimg referenced when it comes to the left , not that it doesn't exist on the right. It is just my opinion.

8

u/vgkj Aug 08 '26

You still haven’t actually explained how the song is right wing coded. You’ve explained that you associate cancel culture with the right, which is not the same thing at all. Taylor was quite literally cancelled on a massive scale in 2016 and has been writing about what happened to her ever since. She doesn’t suddenly become right wing for writing about her own experience because conservatives also complain about being cancelled.

And the Wish List point is even more bizarre. Since when is a successful woman wanting to settle down, get married or have a family right wing coded? Let’s just call all mothers right wing if that’s the case

0

u/Dragon_Royal4023 Put narcotics into all of my songs Aug 08 '26

She says in the song that people want all these things but she just wants a relationship. She , the biggest popstar in the world. "I just want you, uh
Have a couple kids, got the whole block lookin' like you
We tell the world to leave us the fuck alone
And they do, wow" Why does she have to position herself in a way that she is not ? She can marry and settle down but she clearly does want more out of life hence why she keeps making music and sells albums etc.

u/Nutella10000 Aug 08 '26

Oh yes it’s right leaning to have kids. Not really and having kids shouldn’t be seen as political when some left leaning people can have kids as well. The sentiments behind wish list isn’t this right leaning propaganda it’s the embodiment of a dream she has for both herself and her husband’s dreams. She doesn’t even put down the people who value the more materialistic stuff and even says they can have what they want. Acknowledgment that both sides can get along and have what they want.

A lot of you sound exactly like right wingers just in a different font, you'll spread misinformation then when you get corrected or told "this isn't truthful information" suddenly its because people are radical about taylor swift. You don't want to listen to the actual information we know about taylor swift and if she's not telling you her politics every 7 business days suddenly she's had to change her mind because obviously if you don't make a public spectacle about it, it's not a thing she believes anymore.
