    Only somewhat related, but conservatives are whining a lot about seeing Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce everywhere and are claiming it's an op. You'd think they'd be happy about the world's most famous couple being white and heterosexual and one half of the couple playing for a team whose name and logo is a problematic Native American stereotype, but nope.

    It's also incredibly funny seeing their posts saying "This is NOT organic!" Like yeah no shit dude, the most famous pop star at the height of her fame has an army of PR people promoting her.

      The right are masters at moving the goal posts, it's not enough to have the two most famous people on earth being white and rich but they have to explicitly support MAGA/fascism/racial holy war/whatever shit chuds are on now too.

        Not to disagree with the general sentiment, but the “on earth” made me giggle as this post is the first time I’ve heard her boyfriend’s name

          I legit learned about her new boyfriend from a Meat Canyon sketch (all the CW's for that surprisingly chill dude's content), so that goes to show my knowledge on celebrity news.

      Football is part of the right-wing cultural sphere and Taylor Swift isn't. Right-wing football fans are being forced to acknowledge that Taylor Swift exists, and that causes them dissonance because they're supposed to live in a bubble. Their natural response is that this must be a conspiracy of some sort. If it's not some sort of liberal plot to (insert irrational fear here), then it means that they and the things they like live in the same bubble as other people and the things those people like.

      Taylor Swift has already rigged the Super Bowl to ensure a Chiefs win, after which the Chiefs logo will be pulled away to reveal the visage of Ahmed Yassin. The Fida'i will then start playing over the loudspeakers as our brave Hamas fighters paraglide into the stadium to massacre all white people a la the Haitian Revolution in 1804.

      Just call them sjws for hating on a white heterosexual couple and watch themselves twist themselves into a knot. Then just reply with "sure thing bro".
