    She has such a huge following that it impacts things on a scale that there is a battle over which political ideology she needs to align with. Its some game of thrones scheming where there is a republican Little Finger orchestrating articles like this to convince social media leftists to attack her. All so they can gain the power of the Swifties for the next election cycle. They even sent in their own version of the Mountain to try to romance her. She is so on that fence and when they get her we’re looking at total collapse of the liberal political sphere for a whole generation.

    What would be left? Foo Fighters and Tom Petty?

      There are eras in history. For example, you had Elvis Presley and Michael Jackson and all those guys. And when people look back at our generation musically, we are in the era of Taylor Swift. That’s what it will be remembered as. Other artists are really good, but absolutely nobody has ever come anywhere close to the celebrity Taylor Swift has. If there’s anybody who’s going to ever be remembered as an icon, it’s her.

      Foo Fighters are busy playing private shows for Jeff Bezos.

      So, no, Foo Fighters are not left.

      What I can tell you is that even as executives squeeze and sweat and hound rank-and-file Amazonians to scrimp and save every precious dollar, even as they fire quality performers, stall promotions, and stretch everyone to do more with less, someone found enough money to rent out the Ryman Auditorium and pay the Foo Fighters to play a private show for senior leaders.

      If you’re tone deaf enough to accept money to play a private show (for company leaders only) for a company who just laid off tons of people and is making a big deal about tightening of belts, then you’re 100% not actually on the side of regular fuckin people dude.

      Grohl can eat shit.
