Taylor Swift’s Persona Is Not Built For 2017 (too "Aggressively White")

[[What does that mean? Aggressively white?]]

It means that whenever she walks by a person of color they fall into a coma- whenever she speaks, people of color have epileptic seizures, whenever she breathes, people of color fall unconscious from asthma attacks of course

[Chewbarkah]

Aggressively white = insufficient cultural appropriation.
Diversity is intolerable — she must act black like most other white pop stars.

[Drew68]

The Cliff’s Notes version of this article => “She’s younger, prettier and richer than me, and I can’t stand it.”

She didn't support Hillary when Hillary needed it the most! Katy Perry did! She hasn't jumped on the anti-Trump bandwagon like the rest of us have! Everyone is condemning Trump! Why aren't you?!?!? All your boyfriends are chiseled, tall white guys. You need a black boyfriend with neck tattoos and gold teeth!

And the Left has still never forgiven her for making Kanye West look bad when he drunkenly jumped on stage and stole the limelight from her at the 2009 VMAs.

He's been viewed as an a$$hole ever since and somehow this is her fault.

Of course, by nature of that very history of racism and misogyny, Beyoncé has always had a much higher bar to clear than Swift to reach similar kinds of success.

Give me a frickin' break.

Racism? "People of color" dominate the pop charts.

Misogyny? Taylor swift is also female, and misogyny didn't seem to harm her career.

[Big Red Badger]

Slow NEWS day...

And No Photos!

[atc23]

She needs to publicly come out against her race. Condemn her white privlege and yes, start dating a dindu

[Lopeover]

Yup.

[Harmless Teddy Bear]

Yep.

And part of the reason why she is richer and prettier then the author is that she does not feel the need to preach at people all day every day and take offense at every little thing.

The younger, that is just a time thing.

I was born aggressively white.

I am sick of this crap. She is beautiful and white so they ruin her career.

[PreciousLiberty]

I’m feeling rather “aggressively white” myself...through no fault of my own!

[Mr. Mojo]

But because she will not denounce Trump, like she has denounced Nazis in the past...She’s a Nazi?

That's what's it's now come to. Apolitical (white) entertainers are expected to be aggressively anti-Trump to prove they're "down with the cause." If they decide not to play that game, they're labeled Nazis.

[stinkerpot65]

Swift’s crime is not that she opposes them, but that she does not enthusiastically support them.

We are amidst a cultural Stalinist purge, and Trump is the only one with the guts to fight.

Every liberal is a violent totalitarian thug.

[jjotto]

I saw a clip of TS, presumably new, in which she had on a trashy fishnet-type outfit and featured her with legs spread wide open, ghetto as anything. I guess she needs to pop out a little mulatto bastard to make some people happy.

[rockrr]

Yep, that’s what I gathered from this rambling spew too. The further they go with the race baiting and attempts to marginalize the more militant people like me are becoming. I’ve never been one for taking crap from people but I’m done being a “live n let live” person.

“Respect me or fear me - your choice” - my new motto

[Aevery_Freeman]

>>"What does that mean? Aggressively white?"

Not apologizing for oppressing the Melanites.

[x]

This is "aggressive whiteness"?

Serves her right, though.

I tried to tell her capping Tupac and Biggie in those drive-bys would catch up with her someday.

[Skywise]

I always thought Black History month was a racist concept but I grudgingly understood the point was integration. Then there was the push for Ebonics which was just silly. Then Obama was elected and the entire planet lost its collective mind.

I never ever thought I’d see the day where blatant racism is the accepted norm in America but actively promoted as “progressive” and “intellectually enlightened”

[GuavaCheesePuff]

I am not a fan of all of Taylor Swift’s music, but she does not have to be political.

Not everyone has to be political.

SJWs like to project and wreck havoc on any celebrity or public person refuses to speak about politics and culture.

SJWs are mental.
