Idk, the recent pic of her chummy day/night out with Brittany Mahomes planted quite a bit of doubt for me. There was a lot of speculation after those pictures released that she’d come out for Kamala, to get ahead of any backlash.
Just being nice to the wife of her boyfriend’s buddy, not asking him to turn away from his friends, even if they’re fools. As my daughter said, those football guys get hit in the head a lot…
I personally think the company you choose to keep says a lot about you. There’s being polite with your partner’s friends and then there’s being all over someone like a bestie. It’s amazing how well her PR machine works that she gets white knighted so much, even on Lemmy. May I remind everyone that she is a billionaire and didn’t get to be one accidentally. She’s just as bad as the rest of them, she just pays people to make her seem not as threatening, and it’s clearly working based on all the free defense she gets on the internet.
She’s not your friend. Arguably, she’s Brittany Mahome’s friend.
Yes. The company she keeps is her boyfriend. Her boyfriend who is a tight end (hee hee) on the same team that Mahomes is a quarterback on. That means he only “looks good” if Mahomes throws to him.
Welcome to being an adult. Yes, there are thresholds where you say “Fuck off, I don’t care”. But when it can potentially ruin your partner’s career to not smile and nod? You act like an adult and smile and nod. And then you go off on them during the car ride home (well… plane ride for T-Swizzle).
Nobody (sane) is going to argue that Taylor is a secret leftist or anything. But she has consistently shown that she cares about LGBTQ+ rights and Womens’ Rights (whether as part of her brand or as herself, it doesn’t matter) and quietly endorsed Biden. The only question was whether she would stay silent, quietly endorse Kamala, or release a press release. She chose the press release.
But hey, feel free to continue making deranged purity tests that just alienate everyone else. That totally leads to electoral wins and change.
It’s not deranged. There are degrees and nuances to all human relationships and situations but this was and is a pretty public one. These are hard choices for anyone but they do still matter. I don’t think smiling and nodding is acting like an adult, I think it’s cowardly. There is no maturity in avoiding things.
