Swift has more to lose than most

Agreed, she could lose 99% of everything she has and still be comfortably in the 1%

What a fucking take from the journo

Billionaire has no morals, shocking news.

[–] rigatti@lemmy.world 40 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Didn't she endorse Kamala and speak out against Trump in the past? Maybe Trump's use of her music isn't even on her radar?

[–] Raiderkev@lemmy.world 25 points 6 days ago (2 children)

He used AI slop to say she endorsed him during the election, and she stayed oddly silent on it for like at least 2 weeks before denouncing it and endorsing Harris. Fuck Taylor Swift. Billionaire filth.

I mean... she's a billionaire... soo...

[–] peopleproblems@lemmy.world 28 points 6 days ago (1 children)

She's a billionaire white pretty blonde.

You know how autistic people can recognize autistic people with ease?

WASP progressives can identify white bootlickers with ease.

Autistic people can recognize autistic people?

Maybe my budding suspicions about myself were wrong.

[–] peopleproblems@lemmy.world 4 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago) (1 children)

Yeah. it depends on the visible and vocal characteristics.

[–] toynbee@lemmy.world 1 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Please tell me the visible and vocal characteristics that identify autists? I'd like to know if they apply to me.

[–] peopleproblems@lemmy.world 4 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago) (1 children)

There are a lot. And they vary in intensity.

There's a couple of screeners out there that you can find, I don't happen to have a link to them right now.

Like one obvious one is hand flapping to specific intense emotions such as excitement or frustration.

Another is your ability to understand and use body language.

Special Interests. Stimulation seeking or sensory avoidance. Specific patterns of speech.

To us, autistic people look normal. Neurotypicals behave in ways that are weird.

[–] toynbee@lemmy.world 2 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Hand flapping is infuriating to me. It's the source of one of the biggest arguments I've ever had. It feels so dismissive.

I have no understanding of body language. Or people. Especially faces.

I can't even be okay without some kind of stimulation, usually music. When I was in therapy, my therapist found this odd.

I don't know what this means, but now I'm a bit sad and worried.

[–] peopleproblems@lemmy.world 3 points 6 days ago (7 children)

I'm sorry, the hand flapping? Not everyone does it. It's just really obvious. And we can't control it. Not without losing our shit.

Bro.

Can be ADHD. Bro.

Calm. Autism isnt bad it's just an explanation for things you already know about yourself.

Like maybe you need little ouchy stims. Or maybe you need earplugs everywhere to prevent overstimulation. Or maybe a lot of things.

Basically you just gotta take care of you so you don't stress the fuck out living in a neurotypical world.

it's like gaydar, but for eye contact (or lack thereof)

[–] bold_atlas@lemmy.world 1 points 5 days ago

It's not a smell then? I guess I have something different.

[–] toynbee@lemmy.world 1 points 6 days ago (2 children)

What tells you that another is autistic?

[–] tym@lemmy.world 1 points 5 days ago

I usually just look to see if they have a cord coming out of their guitar

[–] peopleproblems@lemmy.world 1 points 6 days ago

That.

We can barely look eachother in the eye. It's fucking funny because the NTs get all confused how we know who's turn it is

[–] Dorkyd68@lemmy.world 3 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Gotta fuel up the jet somehow. Do you expect her to do that in an ethical way???

[–] bold_atlas@lemmy.world 2 points 5 days ago (1 children)

I doubt she's being paid for the use of these songs.

[–] Dorkyd68@lemmy.world 4 points 5 days ago

Who said anything about direct payments? Loyal maga scum will slurp it down and buy more of her merchandise and music. Trust me she isn't losing sales off of supporting maga. And before you say it, yes by her allowing the far right fascists to play her terrible music at rallies she is in fact supporting them.

[–] aeternum@lemmy.blahaj.zone 9 points 6 days ago

TIL Taylor Swift is an arsehole. Colour me shocked!

[–] roserose56@lemmy.zip 5 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Imagine how many fans she will lose if she brings politics in .

[–] P1k1e@lemmy.world 5 points 6 days ago

She's done so lightly in the past, doesn't seem to have affected her much

[–] HugeNerd@lemmy.ca 3 points 6 days ago

So she's worse than MTG? Guess Ari Matti was right.

Because she's an AI prototype and probably a hologram.
