Taylor Swift has shattered virtually every major record in the music industry, and as she lives her best life supporting her boyfriend, Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, she’s also breaking the brains of right-wingers.
For months now, the digital fever swamps have been fuming over everything and anything Swift-related. Her popularity, the success of the Eras Tour, her relationship, her appearances at NFL games, and especially her politics. The Chiefs won the AFC championship on Sunday, punching the team’s (and potentially Swift’s) ticket to the Super Bowl in February. In response, long-standing conspiracy theories around the NFL’s “scriptwriting” for football seasons clashed with right-wing conspiracy theorists claiming Swift’s involvement with Kelce is part of a deep state plot to gin up support for President Joe Biden in the 2024 election. The result is as ugly as it is stupid.
Former presidential candidate and MAGA blowhard Vivek Ramaswamy tweeted on Monday that he wondered “who’s going to win the Super Bowl next month,” adding, “I wonder if there’s a major presidential endorsement coming from an artificially culturally propped-up couple this fall. Just some wild speculation over here, let’s see how it ages over the next 8 months.”
It sounds like the chiefs losing would be considered a huge win for … Trump? I hope he’s got a good passing game because he sure as fuck isn’t running the ball.
Why wait for them to lose? Odds on the nutters storming the field with violence to “Stop the Endorsement”?
Low, but not impossible? NFL security is pretty intense, including building digital threat profiles for ticket holders for the big games, and Swift’s security team are some incredibly kind and competent absolute psychos. While any attempt to organize a big “storm the field” thing would probably just get caught in the planning stages and you’d simply be denied entry to the venue, if you did get it planned undetected it’d be pretty easy to pull off. So long as you’re not an active threat, you’re just out on the field waving flags and not firing guns, they’ll just evacuate the VIPs, call the cops and keep you there till you get bored.
The biggest concern at these events is that someone will get in with the goal of intentionally causing crowd crush incidents. Because of that, the focus is heavily on preempting and prevention and not so much on response. Its a neat field to get into if you’re okay with never being comfortable in a public space again!
All that said, going for the players, or god forbid going after Tay herself, would turn into a bloodbath pretty damn quick.
One step ahead of you my friend! Now, to start on my career transition…
See people are all ready transitioning!
