It’s science news that happens to involve a celebrity.
It’s celebrity news regarding a known white supremacist, her fanbase is notoriously disgusting and racist and often attacks people of color.
This community doesn’t need that kind of garbage, there’s plenty of it on reddit
CeruleanRuinI don’t follow Swift or her die-hard fans, but this is news to me. Is this a real documented fact, or the usual overblown internet reaction to an assumption based on an extrapolation from a decade-old retweet?
Overblown internet nonsense.
From a quick search, it appears that a bunch of white supremacists revere here as something like a goddess, and the feeling is absolutely not mutual - in 2019, she unambiguously and firmly denounced white supremacy and alt-right stuff in general in a Rolling Stone interview.
Why do they revere her? Like I get that she is a very beautiful white woman, but there are lots of those. There has to be more than just “she’s hot and white so we’ve made her our goddess” right?
No, I honestly don’t think there’s any more to it than that. She’s an attractive, famous, and successful white lady. That’s kinda it.
And slightly country.
