Donald Trump is trying to brush off the fact that he shared A.I.-generated images of Taylor Swift endorsing his campaign to his Truth Social account earlier this week, now claiming that he doesn’t know “anything about them.”

    Rowling used to seem like a “good billionaire” too. Then she went all TERF-y.

    Swift may seem cool for now, but let’s not put away the guillotines just yet.

      Not if you read her work, she didn’t. It was filled with racist tropes.

      I’m fine with that. The guillotine can always stay our regardless of who it is and.how much we currently like them.

      Okay? Everyone seems fine until they don’t seem fine. That’s not unique to billionaires or particularly insightful.

      No one’s canonizing anyone here. Saying there’s a difference between “one of the most popular musicians ever” having a lot of money and “exploitative businessman notable for particularly exploitative working situations” who has two orders of magnitude more isn’t some preening hero worship.
