      Neither of you should be commenting when you clearly didn’t read the article.

      The album makes it clear what an out of touch billionaire she is and even her fans are mad about it. Literally nothing to do with her leading anything, it’s about the negative reactions from everyone else.

      Goddamn, it’s like you didn’t even read the headline

        ahh the swifty-simps came out to play

        just because you call yourself out doesn’t absolve you from any wrongdoing.

        tell me, what programs has she made that she doesn’t directly benefit from?

          What I said about her was in no way positive so I’m guessing you’re just a troll

            it’s almost like the cognitive dissonance is so deep you can’t even understand.

            let me break it down for you;

            • she’s rich and part of the wealth problem.

            • just because she calls herself out doesn’t mean she’s not still part of the problem.

            • just because you call her out as part of the problem doesn’t mean she’s still not part of the problem.

            you attempted to disqualify my position by calling out her calling out her behavior as commendable. if that’s not what you did, then why say anything at all if you agree with me?

            if anyone is a troll here, it’s you.

              Holy shit dude, no I did not

              I am saying she’s an out of touch billionaire

              I am saying her fans are waking up to the truth

              I said nothing good about Taylor Swift here

      And Friedrich Engels was bourgeoisie and part of the owner class. Still he contributed a lot to socialist ideas, especially by financing Karl Marx and later after Marx death editing his writing to produce the later parts of Das Kapital.

      Now I’m not saying that Swift is like Engels, but letting the birth circumstances dictate the opinion about somebody is not what leftists should do, it’s the enemies way of acting. Judge somebody by their acts, not their birth.

          He literally says Swift is not like Engels you. The comparison was made to say that actions matter more than the background, but that flew right over your head didn’t it.

          Swift is not acting very Engels like at all.
