I hate how celebrities are deified. I will always say that if Taylor Swift said communism good we'd have full communism the following week.

    She'd be forced one way or another to "correct" her previous statements, you don't get to be a celebrity if you don't say what the system wants people to think

    I don’t think anyone has that level of power over her to be honest. Like okay, someone tells her to “correct” those statements. Instead she tells her fans she was told to do this, and that they must take up arms to protect the United Socialist Swiftist States of America

    No offense, but even the Great Man Theory is not this naive.

    Do you seriously believe that an entrenched system propped up by an intricate network of institutions that serve capital can be toppled by a single celebrity?
