Jimmy: “Deadline is Friday or else!”

So let me get this straight. A white billionaire septuagenarian is in a spat with a young, black Butler?

This.

“Scholarship Pageant” aside (win college money for being attractive!), maybe no one really wants to spend a couple of hours watching women in their early 20s tricked out and made up to look like 30-ish Evangelical housewives anymore. 

This is the Miss America pageant we deserve.

Time will tell as far as what she’s all about. That said, she could have just said nothing, which has been a consistent (and correct) critique.

So, yeah, this was a pretty big fucking deal.

Well said! 

I’m a “better than late than never” and a “reinforce positive behavior” kind of guy. I’m not about shaming new and incoming allies; I think we do too much of this performative shaming of people who don’t particularly deserve it.

You have found fault with the timing of a pop singer’s political stance. Congratulations.

I don’t really get your letter... I know close to nothing about this singer, but do you think you are born with political set of values that you shall express loud and clear when you enter preschool? I did not give a s**t about politics until I turn 35. Before that I only cared about video game, friends and girls. Why…

Man, that’ll really show her Michael!

The girl took a baby step in the right direction. What’s wrong with encouraging her? She has pushed the envelope in her corner of the music world plenty of times, and she could grow into a force for real change. Maybe. No guarantees but who could say?

As Chimamanda Adichie puts it, this article is “LIBERAL CANNABALISM” at it’s best. We love to consume our own. She is an alley guys. Stop with the self righteousness. Just cause she has now decided to PUBLICLY voice an opinion,and in her own way, doesn’t mean she wasn’t “woke” before. If liberals don’t stop tearing…

I’ll share a different perspective:

Any celebrity with as much social influence as Taylor swift, especially over a highly impressionable and opinionated demographic that is notoriously low in turn-out statistics, carries enormous value for the cause, and not an inconsiderable risk (or reward) for the celebrity.

On one…

Yeah, I’m honestly not sure what the author wants.

The best way to make allies and join in a common cause is, of course, to spit in the face of people who want to join you.  What an asshole.

It’s a win.  Take it, man!

It’s hard to get on someone who was never open or involved about political stuff. If she was I’d agree with about her complictness. Most of the other people named have long since being active, involved, or engaged with political commentary and discussion.
