      Nope. At no point did she ask her fans to “vote to defend me.”

      She expressed her political opinions, and extolled them to express their own several times, then dropped a link about registering to vote.

      She basically said “I believe this and will be voting for Harris. You should think about what you believe, and then vote for that. Here is how you register to vote.”

      Pretty chill and reasonable, honestly.

        Oh sorry I meant this:

        I imagined your average Swiftie saying:

        How dare he [and after that AI nude scandal too?!]. I’mma defend our girl.

        She definitely didn’t ask anyone, but if your favorite person says someone wronged you and says what they’re going to do, that’s a very attractive bandwagon.

        Her post was flawless.

          I think her fans are probally not happy about that, but it was pretty small part of the overall post. I read that as more her responding to the misinformation about her than a direct “they wronged me, get them!” She certainly isn’t happy about AI fakes though, and not just from the Trump campaign. Musk also allowed Twitter to host a viral wave of fake porn of her a bit ago before it got a lot of outrage in the media, so this may also be a clap back about how irresponsible the GOP side of aisle is being with AI.

          I’d expect her fans to have a stronger inclination to overall agree with supporting reproductive rights and the various other points she championed over a sense of retribution, but it may play a part.
