Right-Wingers Say Super Bowl Is Rigged So Taylor Swift Can Endorse Biden

Far-right influencer Rogan O’Handley went so far as to suggest that if the Chiefs won the Super Bowl, Swift and Kelce would trigger an apocalyptic chain of events that would kill millions. “You MUST defeat the Chiefs,” O’Handley wrote in an X post addressed to the San Francisco 49ers. “If you don’t, Mr. Pfizer and his girlfriend are going to tour the country as ‘world champions’ helping elect Joe Biden WW3 will likely follow in a 2nd Biden term and millions will die. The fate of the free world rests upon your shoulders”
Just wow. Only a tidbit of the crazy they are spouting in this article.
-
I don't get it.
Why would the cabal, the super influential group secretly controlling all our actions, need a football team to win the superbowl to defeat them, and why would they, in all their Machiavellian wisdom, not have considered the 50% chance event that their football team loses?
Why would they pick Biden for another term then start WW3? Why not just start it now if that's what they want and he's already their puppet? They've had 3 years and there's certainly enough political tinder in the world to start a fire.
None of this makes any coherent sense.
-
You know what, I've thought about this some more and the reasoning is clear.
If the 49ers win, they'll inadvertantly resurrect Harvey Milk, who will kill JFK (who faked his own death and has been lying in wait), who will then be unable to reclaim the last months of his presidency (his term was never officially ended you know) which he planned to use to restore Donald Trump to power. Harvey Milk will then become president and make heterosexuality illegal and force us to live in 15 minute neighborhoods.
That must be their angle! They win either way!
-
It's because so much conspiracy theory requires the conspirators to be simultaneously all powerful but hilariously weak and stupid. And all their plans have to be announced and hinted at through pop culture and in ways that are suspiciously similar to popular movies and TV shows as remembered by people with no media literacy.
-
Because they need people not to know until all the stars are aligned and then nobody can stop it anymore! Unless some hero changes the course of history by telling everyone and saves the world!
-
$0.02:
Optimistically: they're just crazy. Some have access to a louder bullhorn than others, but it's just garden variety insanity.
Pessimistically: someone has a huge pile of cash riding on the outcome of the game, and is making a Hail Mary pass of their own to sway the outcome.
-
This is my response to all conspiracy theories. If this deep state cabal is so powerful, and has access to unlimited resources to achieve their agenda, wouldn't it be easier to just declare martial law and send the deep state army in to drag us all into the streets, point a gun at our heads and say comply or die? Why the theatrics? Is the deep state the Joker? Why not just shoot Batman in the head and be done with it?

Trump sycophant Laura Loomer wrote on X that “the Democrats’ Taylor Swift election interference psyop is happening in the open… They are going to use Taylor Swift as the poster child for their pro-abortion GOTV Campaign.”
This shit sounds like deepfried AI hallucinations, but I know people are actually that dumb.
-
Remember every accusation is a confession…
-
And they'll somehow always find ways to bring you to a loss for words even when you expect the absolutely deepest level of stupidity and craziness you can imagine. These past handful of years have just been a constant shattering of expectations of how dumb and fucked up people manage to be. And 90% of it is coming from right-wing fanatics.
-
-
millions will die
Didn’t seem to care about that too much during Covid, not sure why it’s a problem for him now.
-
If the guy is endorsing a team from San Francisco, the capital of libruls and the gay, he must be part of the conspiracy.
-
Absolutely. If anyone is going to stop socialism, Jewish space lasers, and the San Francisco 49ers, it's a guy from Kansas with a mustache and his blonde country singer girlfriend.
Really feels like conservatives picked the wrong side here?
-
-
Why are there people so convinced that football, or the outcome of any sporting event, matters at all? Like I know that this is just some media manipulators trying to stir people up, but I also fully believe that they will succeed and that the number of people who will find this argument compelling will be depressing (though who knows, maybe humanity will have a pleasant surprise).
-
Main character syndrome. They all think they're God's chosen, but they all also secretly believe that they are God's chosen-er

But hey, no pressure or anything guys.
-
It reads like someone parodying schizophrenia.
-
I don't get it, do the Chiefs have Swift and Kelce as spokespeople or something? Why would they tour with Chiefs, if that's what they're saying.
-
Travis Kelce plays for the chiefs, Taylor and Travis are dating. Taylor is present at many chiefs games and almost surely will be at the Super Bowl. Taylor is very outspoken about the need to vote, rarely if ever says who to vote for but presses the need to have your voice heard. Republicans and other fascists know that their policies are wildly unpopular, especially with the youth, and so hate the idea of anyone encouraging the youth or anyone else to vote and possibly outnumber the hateful citizens that normally vote for republicans
-
Your mistake is trying to understand crazy
-
-
I don't want what he is having.
-
-
I'm continually impressed at how good Joe Biden is at running this vast, secret, deep state network of people rigging everything... while being so bad at anything else.
-
Obligatory definitions of fascism #8:
Fascist societies rhetorically cast their enemies as "at the same time too strong and too weak".
-
-
Lmao what the actual fuck 🤣
-
Taylor Swift stole my pic-a-nic basket!
-
Somebody's playing with the cursed Mad Libs booklet again.
-
Japan gets the Death Note, America gets the Conspiracy Mad Lib...
That seems fair.
-
-
My right wing neighbor dropped this conspiracy on me a few months ago, when Kelce and Swift just started dating. His thought was that Kelce had a COVID vaccine commercial, and the government was using him and Swift to reach a broader population of little girls to brainwash them into getting the vaccine for the "fake disease".
I haven't followed up with him on it, but now that the Chiefs are in the Super Bowl, I'm sure he's doubling down on his crazy conspiracy theory. I guess I shouldn't say "his" theory. I didn't realize it at the time, because I don't mainline Fox News and News Max, but I guess this must have been something my neighbor heard on some crazy show at some point.
-
-
Hahahahahahaha bahahahahahaaa. Oh wait... They're serious. Let me laugh even harder BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAHQHAHAH!
-
There's a Q six letters in. There's 12 months in a year, which is 6x2. That means THIS YEAR BIDEN RIGGED THE SUPER BOWL! It's clearly an admission from a secret agent associatied with Q.
/s just in case it's needed, because we live in the dumbest of all possible time lines.
-
-
"Editor wastes ink on this bullshit instead of the news"
-
Taylor Swift doesn't need the Superbowl.
-
Conservatives are so out of touch that they think that Taylor Swift still needs a platform after a record breaking music tour. If anything, she is the platform that the NFL needs for a female audience, not the other way around.
-
I'm almost certain she can just buy a Superbowl now
-
-
Right wingers say stupid shit that makes no fucking sense. News at 11.
-
Are there any shady commercials of products that I can buy before 11?
-
I'll sell you the rights to buy pluerpen coin at half its actual value when it is released next month. That's a whole 50% off, and it'll almost certainly go up in value one million percent the first week. This is totally a very legit and real coin that will displace Bitcoin. So, how many coins do you want to buy? With your 50% discount they're only $37,000 per coin. Should I put you down for 5?

when I was reading 1984 a few years back it occurred to to me that the main character is trapped in his own hell. he tells you how he is dependent on big brother for everything, even his opinion. But his temptation and love and freedom cause his downfall. His handler even knows he will one day fall into the snare. And when they break him, they do so with simple lies that he is forced to believe, because its all that he has left.
But its not big government that is keeping him trapped. He could leave his life and become a prole but his fear is too great. And he returns to the party even when he knows its his doom.
The conservatives are trapped in this same hell cycle. Brought on by themselves. And they fear that leaving the party so much so that they will harm anyone else who tires.
-
Sounds like 1984 is about to get banned South of the Mason Dixon. Can't have these liberal, Yankee views corrupting the youth.
-
1984 + Biden (5 letters) = 1989 = Taylor Swift
-
Funny because I saw this thread and thought of the Two Minutes Hate.
-
You say this as if liberals aren't caught in the same trap.
Just because conservatives are rotted doesn't mean they're the only ones
Not much critical thinking goes on in the United States, regardless of party. Which prevents the development of any understanding of material conditions or structural oppression
The definition of neoliberalism:
"Neoliberalism is an economic and political ideology that emphasizes the value of free market capitalism, minimal state intervention in the economy, and the importance of individual entrepreneurial freedoms. Central to neoliberalism is the belief that open markets, free trade, and the unrestricted flow of capital are the best means to achieve economic growth and societal prosperity.
Historically, neoliberalism gained prominence in the late 20th century, particularly under the leadership of figures like Margaret Thatcher in the UK and Ronald Reagan in the US. This period marked a significant shift from Keynesian economics, which advocated for stronger government intervention in the economy, to a model favoring deregulation, privatization of state-owned enterprises, and a reduced role for government in social welfare.
The impact of neoliberalism has been global, influencing economic policies across various countries. It led to the liberalization of international trade and finance, the proliferation of free trade agreements, and the globalization of economic activities. However, it has also been critiqued for increasing income inequality, contributing to social disparities, and exacerbating environmental degradation due to its focus on economic growth and efficiency over social and ecological concerns."
-
Yeah, those damn liberals and their... Summer school lunch programs... And not wanting kids to get cut to ribbons in the Rio Grande... And wanting to assure access to healthcare, no matter who you are or your gender expression, or if you want safe access to an abortion... And want to end systemic racism...
Yeah, you're right - both sides are the same. /S
-
-
-
So then why don't they bet on it and make tons of cash?
-
Because there's a chance trump and the good guys can defeat the forces of evil and un-rig the SuperBowl
-
But only if you send them a cheque for your entire life savings
-
-
What, and take time out of their busy outrage schedule?
-
They probably will bet on it.
How does that dispute their underlying point?
Also, I very much doubt that NFL game fixing is so hard to believe. The United States has a strong history of game fixing in all of its nationally popular athletic leagues. From boxing to baseball. (Say it ain't so, Joe)
So we should not be surprised at the possibility that the NFL would do the same thing, particularly after happily integrating gambling into their entire product at an unprecedented rate over the past 5 years.

Regardless, this is legitimately the most important presidential election in US history. Trump's victory would destroy the United States. Given that, it would be malpractice for the American and Western intelligence agencies not to utilize the most watched 3.5 hours of 2024 American television to diminish Trump and boost his opponents.
I hope that Taylor Swift/The Chiefs are a psychological operation of our intelligence agencies. Our agencies need to be doing things like that to ensure Trump loses. Because if he wins then The West will end. And I have to live here in The West, so I would prefer that it didn't end.
-
Wait, so you're hoping that the American government is covertly manipulating the roughly 1 in 3 Americans who watch the Superbowl expressly to retain the incumbents power because it means we'd avoid a fascist autocracy?
-
That is possible for some game some where to be corrupted at some time isn't evidence that it is easy to rig NFL games. Much more likely an individual player is compromised in a way that affects game integrity (or at least betting fairness) than nonsense whole cloth rigging of the game.
-
-
-
Why would the Superbowl need to be rigged for her to do this? Everything the woman does is already reported and televised everywhere.
-
The theory is that it needs to be rigged so that the Chiefs are in the super bowl because she is linked to Chiefs player Travis Kelce. So Kelce playing in the Super Bowl gives her a very plausible reason for being there and for being heavily featured with him
-
-
That’s because right wingers are the dumbest people on the planet
-
The fuck does Taylor Swift have to do with this?
-
She told people to vote and most Taylor Swift Fans probably aren‘t conservative
-
Her boyfriend is on one of the teams playing. That's it.
-
Important dick appointment either way, cheer-up or celebration.
-
Also there are some pretty hot AI generated pornography that so many people liked they shared it all over the place. Clearly something is up!
-
-
-
Reality is rigged -the guy who went to Texas to watch JFK come back from the dead
-
He stil cum bak. We juss git dat and time rong. U will see. He cum back wit Jesus may b. U wood never even no be cause u librools cant see real trooth.
Thank u, god bless.
-
-
I love the idea that hard right idiots get enraged and boycott everything they love, leaving them sitting alone in their garages angrily muttering to themselves and hating everything.
-
Who would have guessed that defining your identity by the things you hate, and your politics by the people you want hurt, would lead one towards being a miserable fuck.
-
It's funnier cause they'll just scream about boycotting while not actually being willing to do it.
-
It must be exhausting being like these guys. Imagine spending that much emotional energy on hating stuff that you can just as easily ignore and go about your day.
-
-
-
Don't you get it? The Superbowl is her one chance to reach a large audience. If she doesn't get to endorse him there, she may never get another chance to reach millions of people because platforms like that don't exist outside of a couple major sporting events.
-
I laughed!
yesterday I was at the grocery store and the young lady at the register asked me if I was going to watch the big games today. I told her I didn't really care about football aside from one team. She asked if I was going to watch the Superbowl and I said probably not. I asked if she was going to and she said yes because her hobby was Taylor Swift. It was a moment that I will remember for a while because it was fun to be in that space where this young lady who didn't care about the game was excited about Taylor Swift being a part of it, and me whos watched it all my life could care less.
-
When you put it that way, yeah... she kind of doesn't need this gig. At all. Plus, everything I've read suggests that doing this halftime show is a huge PITA anyway.
-
-
That'll mean the conspiracy is even deeper than they thought.
-
-
Well I was going to vote for Biden but now I am changed, I can't let the white liberal hope of Tay Tay ruin my enjoyment of making black people play sports.
/s like lots of it because someone crazy MF is going to think that is really what I think.
-
Conservatives believe whatever feels good for them to believe at that exact moment. The only evidence they need that a white football player dating a white pop star is a psyop is the cortisol their brain gave them when they came up with the idea.
-
Lost their fucking minds.
-
Research suggests, on a psychological level, conspiracist ideation—belief in conspiracy theories—can be harmful or pathological, and is highly correlated with psychological projection, as well as with paranoia, which is predicted by the degree of a person's Machiavellianism.
-
I think it's a bit dangerous to label all conspiracy theorists as nuts.
Epstein didn't kill himself is a conspiracy theory and so was an elite pedo ring before he was arrested. Trump taking money from the Russian and Saudies is a conspiracy theory.
This current one is silly but not because all conspiracies are.
-
conspiracy theories
The term "conspiracy theory" is itself the subject of a conspiracy theory, which posits that the term was popularized by the CIA in order to discredit conspiratorial believers, particularly critics of the Warren Commission, by making them a target of ridicule.[55] In his 2013 book Conspiracy Theory in America, political scientist Lance deHaven-Smith wrote that the term entered everyday language in the United States after 1964, the year in which the Warren Commission published its findings on the Kennedy assassination, with The New York Times running five stories that year using the term.[56]

"Everything The TV tells me not to like in life is on purpose and against me specifically!!! Everyone is thinking about me, all the time, and plotting. EVERYONE!"
-
Aren't you paying attention? She rigged the Superbowl so Joe Biden could score a touchdown. I think? Because she definitely couldn't tell people to vote without rigging the Superbowl.
-
This is one of the worst leftovers of the Trump Cult and regime. Trump got his cultists all hooked on conspiracy theories, and their brainwashed minds were not ready for that level of addictive content, and it worked far too well. It has become similar to a religion in many ways. Everything that makes Our People look bad is an evil conspiracy. Anything that doesn't work out well for Our People is a conspiracy against us.
-
-
The NFL probably is rigged but not for the reasons these fuckheads think.
-
Can't believe you'd accuse the NFL, sponsored by Draft Kings and Fan Duel, of rigging the Super Bowl. Is nothing sponsored by Caesars Sports Book sacred?
-
See I could definitely see the NFL rigging this one to try to gain more fans, since the venn diagram of extremely dedicated football fans and extremely dedicated swifties is basically 2 seperate circles, so its a significant growth opportunity for the NFL
-
Based on what evidence???
-
-
Oh boy, I love stealing the superb owl from idiots.
-
It would be funny if it wasn't also scary. These people are unhinged.
-
And most of them are armed.
-
Nothing is stopping sane Americans from being armed as well, don’t let the magas have all the firepower.
-
-
-
My god those cowards will cry about everything.
-
The joke is on them... the game is definitely rigged, she's paid off the NFL so that she can announce she's running for president on an independent ticket against Trump and Biden.
-
Sadly, that could make Trump win. Swift stealing the younger voters from Biden. No trump supporters would waver for some young singer so the vote would split.
-
-
I was going to ask for someone to explain this for a non American that doesn't understand a word of it, but I think I'd rather remain ignorant tbh.
-
I'm American, I know what all the words mean, but they make no sense when put in that order.
-
Absolutamente the best course of action
-
American here. I’m sorry to report that 2024 is just a bad year to be literate on earth. The headline sounds batshit insane to me, and yet I can 100% hear some conservative family or acquaintance say it with zero joking or sarcasm.
-
-
I'm just waiting for it all to devolve into a kind of nonsense where they all go crazy and do a suicide pact or some shit like the Heavens Gate cult. It can't be far behind with the delusions they spit out day after day.
-
They had a trial run with bleach already
-
-
To be honest, I do not mind the Super Bowl getting ruined for these miserably ignorant and miserable knuckle-draggers.
-
In the national divorce... I never thought liberals would get football
-
That and the weird sub-cult of Elon Musk fanboys on the right that have resulted in a not huge but not insignificant number of Trumpanzees who are diehard drivers of... electric sedans...
My societal-collapse bingo card has been way off so far.
-
Well the other team is SF, which if I had to guess is probably the right's most hated city in America. It must be galling to them that the 49ers are easily one of the winningest teams in NFL history.
-
-
-
I'm sure there will be a convenient excuse lined up if the Chiefs don't win.
-
It's those damn liberals in San Francisco ruining it
-
"We changed the outcome by having discovered it! That'll show them!"
-
-
It certainly smells like a ploy to get more women to watch football, but that's about it.
-
If Biden, who is from Delaware, were able to rig a Super Bowl, he would have the Baltimore Ravens, which are significantly closer to Delaware and undoubtedly have lots of fans there, in the big game instead of the Kansas City Chefs, who are much farther away from Delaware.
-
You jest, but I remember sitting in a bar in Vegas in the spring of 1994.
There were two guys in there going on and on about how the Clintons had rigged college basketball to ensure an Arkansas championship.
-
Biden wants to Mahomes cook. LET HIM COOK
-
-
You know a conspiracy theory is psychotic when it presumes a massive multi-billion dollar corporation would manipulate consumers into supporting their left-wing agenda.
They're obviously doing it for the money.
-
Maybe tell the right wingers that inhaling oxygen is socialism and supported by Biden and the Democrats.
That could solve all of our problems.
-
I hear some republican called Cohaagen is trying to make that claim
-
-
They said the same shit about Hillary. If she wins definite war with Russia, I knew people very concerned about that and it affected voting. I don’t understand the conservative mind.
-
Yeah phew, good thing you're not at war with Russia
-
Idk man. Had we gone to war with Russia, then they probably wouldn't have gone to war with Ukraine. Given their performance against Ukraine, we probably would have squashed them like a tiny little bug under the weight of our terrible boot. Then they probably wouldn't have the resources to run massive online troll farms any more, the Republican party would be negatively impacted, and there would be a lot less propaganda online. Perhaps the whole world would be a little better off if we had gone to war with Russia.
-
-
Afaik that was because of a "no fly zone" comment she made, so it wasn't completely false.
-
-
Considering my Baltimore Ravens lost, this is clearly all rigged and the NFL wants Kelce to propose to Swift with the Superbowl in one hand.
I'm making bets she's the halftime show next year and she'll drop a breakup song about Kelce in the show while he's in the locker room .... just to maximize the ratings and pr.
Go Ravens. Go Niners.
-
lol
-
The officiating crew they had at that game, and how many times they cut to her, it doesn't make me tinfoil hat, but it does remind me the NFL is almost entirely profit driven.
Also comparing comment threads (on YouTube) of the games yesterday, it's amazing how much more derision is stirred when the officials seem to have bias (chiefs ravens), compared to when the game is called with restraint (49ers lions). The niners lions comments were downright civil, while Ravens and Chiefs were openly hostile.
-
She can't endorse him right now?
-
And you fascist fucks are powerless to do anything about it. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
-
Truly impressed with Bidens PR team.
Right wingers sux because they mistake conspiracy for 'conspiracy against them.' OK, you're all into conspiracies or w/e but every conspiracy can't be a slight to you.
-
It's just like how they keep screaming loudly that the election got stolen, yet the people who tried to overthrow the elected government were them, and Trump was the one who tried to steal an election by sending fake people.
The very same thing they yell loudly about is what they themselves are doing with right-wingers. Just like with child abuse or drug abuse or illegal immigration for cheap labor.
-
-
Vivek Ramaswamy, this mutha fucka down the rabbit hole. He's paranoid AF
-
what is this timeline
-
As a Niners fan…I fully expect Taylor swift to win
Kittle does his thing, Greenlaw and Bosa too.
-
Counterpoint, I saw the Ravens play this Sunday. This is a fair point.
-
Yes, it was a liberal conspiracy to defeat the rabidly conservative city of.... Baltimore.
-
Counter-counterpoint.
The Lions collapse was even more boggling.
-
It's all part of the woke agenda for San Francisco to win. The corporations (and liberals) need that gay representation in the Super Bowl to sell more Pepsi!
-
-
-
Curses! Foiled again!
-
A centrally located team for a centrist candidate.
-
What about centers and goaltenders?
-
Imagine your favorite thing in the world - sweaty men trying to push a handegg up and down a field - being infiltrated and rigged so even that is no longer sacred for your Sunday winter ritual. Fucking epic.
-
"Right wingers"? Who? Some former presidential hopeful and some lady named Laura? We need to set a number when some "journalist" says a group of people are saying/doing something. 40, 50 people. I don't know. A few turds on Twitter hardly qualifies. Election season is certainly heating up.
-
This is so incredibly stupid.
NFL fans around the league, regardless of political faction, have been calling the Taylor Swift Super Bowl since the relationship was announced. It isn’t right wingers doing this.
Just wait. We will see Taylor Swift lift the Super Bowl trophy next to Mahomes and Kelce. It’ll be plastered all over everything for a month.
-
It isn’t right wingers doing this.
It's pretty annoying when people are obviously just responding to the headline. Read the damn article. It's about specific right wingers pushing the conspiracy theory. So in this case, yes. It is in fact, right wingers doing this.
-
But only Fascists & Conservatives are brain-dead stupid enough to actually believe this is some kind of conspiracy & that the other however many teams in the Chief's conference would go along with it.
It's staggeringly stupid, but if you can believe in a magical old man living in the sky that watches you masturbate, you can believe in anything.
-
It's almost like it's the chiefs' fourth Superbowl with Mahomes and they're a decent team to place bets on. Though as a native to KC it's a bit wild considering the regular season they just played. I like to think the guys I know shitting on Kelce for not having his best year are feeling like assholes for being so sexist about how "women ruin men's careers."
