Same day we find out part of the reason Chappelle Roan turned down playing at the White House to the President was because she had wanted to derail it to talk about Palestine and her publicist was like you really really shouldn't do that. Which is disappointing that she caved on that plan, but the liberals would have definitely crucified her for doing it too. And it is nice that the upcoming LGBT star is pro-Palestine.
Remember like 8 months ago when IDF swifties were posting her songs to videos supporting Zionism? I'm glad she's finally chosen to back KKKamala seconds after it became clear she was the most likely winner, though.
accomplish more if "we are led by calm and not chaos"
Am I a crazy person for finding this kind of liberal "empowerment dialect" extremely vacuous and cringe-worthy? It's like a sanitised version of the pep talk a pirate captain would give his men before pillaging a village, only it is for unconditionally supporting the blandest version possible of the status quo and limiting your political actions to harmless protest and voting.
The language is atrocious, the politics is abysmal and empty, yet it is being presented as something highly inspiring.
It's important to understand that the 21st century American has internalized Fascism's myth of the responsible, righteous strongman in lieu of collective participation in politics. The alienation from civic duty is the point, they want to be distant.
This is a false equivalence. The Dixie Chicks correctly stood against the invasion of Iraq, during a time when Americans were insane and bloodthirsty. (Not that this has changed, but the wound was still fresh so to speak.)
The equivalent stance would be Taylor speaking out about Americas involvement in Gaza and the arming of Israel. By endorsing the Democratic nominee who by all accounts intends to continue letting Israel commit a genocide she is, in fact, doing the exact opposite of what you are suggesting.
The Dixie Chicks bucked the status quo, Taylor is endorsing it.
It's only a win if you support the democrats, and considering their unlimited support for genocide, militarizing the border, and contempt for the working class, I'm not sure how one could.
The rest of the comments are jokes. But this is really great news.
I think you're in the wrong place. We don't think its great news or a win, and we actually do think its a joke at best. We aren't on the side of supporting genocide which red and blue maga are both on
People taking this dipshits politically illiterate opinion on politics seriously is another sign that this country is deeply unserious and as a whole should not be taken seriously.
Whom among us can forget such nasally-crooned blue collar odes to bitter divorce, dearly departed dogs, and broken down pickup trucks such as *checks notes* "Shake it Off" or "Blank Space"
Look right, I think this is a superb bit. It's hilarious that anyone would see this as anything other than a sign we're in hell, and lots of people have fallen for the bait, masterful play. You might wanna let people know it's a bit so everyone can congratulate your comedic genius, don't get too committed.
