I honestly had no idea any of this was going on, so thank you for sharing. Pretty ducking horrifying.

It’s always bittersweet to see women/LGBTQ+ folks putting their lives on the line for humanity. Like, yes, we can do it. But, we shouldn’t have to. It should be the norm to not vote in fascists, ffs. And cismen should share the same sentiment/stand by us. But, nah.

I love when fandoms ban together to fight fascism/racism! Whatever she said about BTS has my blood up lol.

Seriously though the way this shit is spreading is terrifying. I appreciate anyone raising their voice in opposition.

I don't usually do this. But I sometimes do separate the artist from the fans when it comes to some Swifties since that one girl went to prison for refusing to do mandatory military service. I still don't know if that was true but some Swifties go hard.

nooooo, she was a scam?! I felt like I had a really great deep dive into how Israel's propaganda and military are shockingly deeply intertwined by design

An interview with the anonymous owner of @LegitTayUpdates. She’s a nineteen-year-old Taylor Swift fan in Israel - and she just finished a two-month prison sentence for refusing to enlist in the Israel Defense Forces. https://t.co/Iu13JEPx2d
