because she doesn’t have to say anything, is it magically going to make you donate? are you going to adopt all the children that no longer have families? are you going to get up and go march in the street every chance you can? are you making a go fund me or adopting a family to send packages to? No? Didn’t think so. Now shut the fuck up.
Anyway. My statement stands. What is your end goal here? To bring more awareness to Palestinians? Everyone already fucking knows about Palestine and what’s happening. People are already donating. People are supporting. People are marching. What is her speaking on Palestine going to do for the people of Gaza?
More pressure on politicians? You realize one pop star is going to do more harm than good, right? The PEOPLE need to be the ones putting pressure on politicians. Not a pop singer. People are donating. You have no clue if she’s donated anonymously or not, which she has famously done dozens of times in the past. Next argument.
as if it’s not a good thing that more people register to vote, or call their congressperson, or donate, whatever the thing that sparked them doing so is. she has power to bring things to people’s attention and encourage them to take action on the things they believe. that’s undeniable
you keep intentionally missing my point and suggesting that i want her to speak out so that i personally feel compelled to take action when i’ve repeatedly stated that i want her to speak out so that others feel compelled to take action they wouldn’t otherwise take. was that intentional?
I hope she never brings attention to shit like this. This is exhausting. Having people, your own fans honestly, scream at you to speak up about something that you should be addressing with your politicians? Come on. I’m actually laughing. People relying on a popstar rather than their own government and people with real power, is so funny.
Dude. You’re exhausting. I’m done with this conversation. Let me summarize my points. 1) Taylor will do things she chooses. 2) Talk to your congressman. Not a popstar. 3) She’s not required to talk about any worldly matter. She makes music. 4) If she spoke, it would be labeled as performative. 5) You have no clue if she has been supporting silently. You just want to see it with your eyes. 6) Do all this stuff for yourself. Don’t rely on a popstar.
7) Gaza has been a topic of conversation for YEARS. Everyone in the world knows about what is happening. They have all had AMPLE time to support. 8) Again, she is a POPSTAR. She is not your senator. She is not your representative. She is not your President. She does NOT need to voice her thoughts on these matters.
