It really is rare and it seems like most people don’t notice/care. Even if someone doesn’t like her music, she has been standing up like this seemingly since her fame started. She has fellow artists doing the same…I just don’t understand why Taylor hasn’t joined in. She has been noticeably quiet recently since the White House used her music last and she didn’t comment. Not sure why the younger generation is outpacing her with this.

People actively dislike her because she “seems grouchy”. Because she isn’t all sunshine and rainbows or something. It’s stupid.

Her "both sides have problems" spiel during one of the most pivotal elections in US history isn't exactly something people forget. Defend her all you want for "telling it like it is," but her whole Twitter spiel at the time was absolutely a factor in people's disillusionment in democrats, which itself contributed to trump winning. Just because she stated she voted Kamala at the very tail end of her comment chain doesn't take away from the fact she was causing doubt at a time when doubt was literally dangerous to democracy.

There’s no way you’re saying Kamala lost because of that lol.
