Talor took to isntagram and said she plans to vote in the midterms and it's for the DEMOCRATS!! She wrote "In the past i've been reluctant to publicly voice my political opinions, but due to several events in my life and in the world in the past 2 years, i feel very differently about that now. I cannot vote for someoen who will not be willing to fight for dignity for ALL Americans, no matter their skin colour, gender or who they love. I always have and always will cast my vote based on which candidate will protect and fight for the human rights i believe we all deserve in this country. I believe in the fight for LGBTQ rights, and that any form of discrimination based on sexual orientation or gender is WRONG. i believe that the systemic racism we still see in this country towards people of colour is terrifying, sickening and prevalent" The Pennsylvania native who has lived in Nashville, Tennessee said in her lengthy post BLASTING Marsha Blackburn, the Republican Congresswoman running against her democratic opponent. She said Blackburn's voting record "appalls and terrifies" her and cites her as a member of a US House of Representative voting against equal pay for women and Reauthorization of Violence Against Women act and believes gay couples shouldn't have a right to marry. She has endorsed Phil Bredesen for Senate and Jim Cooper for House of Representatives She is now urging young people to vote and register in November and said "So many intelligent, thoughtful, self possessed people have turned 18 in the past 2 years and now have the right and privilege to make their vote count. But first you need to register, which is quick and easy to do. October 9th is the LAST DAY to register to vote in the state of TN. Go to vote.org and you can find all the info, Happy Voting!" She just wrapped up her North American leg of her Reputation Tour in TExas and set to open the American Music Awards in LA before going Down Under to Australia, New Zealand and Japan Her endorsement has received lots of buzz with Bredeson thanking her and Actress and Activist Alyssa Milano writing "Taylor Swift Speaks Out AGainst Anti-Gay Senate Candiate - Thank you" But Conservative Whacko, Charlie Kirk BLASTED her stating "You have absolutely no idea what you are talkinga bout. Your caraeer never recovered since Kanye ended it" as thousands of other conservatives are now REVOKING their Taylor Swift endorsements and say they will support "Kanye" Kanye, who infamously went on stage to take the mic away from Taylor and said she DIDN'T deserve the best video award and should have went to Beyonce and at that time blasted Conservatives as well and became a hitting point for the right who lifted Taylor as a symbol for the "alt-right" despite never revealing her political affiliation... Now in an ironic twist, Kanye is a darling to the right wing and Taylor will now be seen as a hero for the left 10 years later.. Do you respect Taylor Swift more now?

Telling people how they should and shouldnt act is not helpful for society as a whole, no matter how controversial their views are. People are free to state who they politically align with, I just feel it's irresponsible for people who know impressionable people follow them to make a big deal out of their views. But I personally believe that even my logic has double standards, since no one (or at least I don't) usually bats an eye if someone famous talks about anti-bullying, anti-littering, etc. even though it's the same logic as someone stating something political. --- Mario Maker https://supermariomakerbookmark.nintendo.net/profile/thegreatnoodle Noodles Games: Part 1; http://txt.do/daqoz Part 2; http://txt.do/daq65 ...

Democracy only truly works with an informed, responsible populace and that's been slipping away for a long time now. It's simpler than that, you just need a populace not vulnerable to believing lies at face value.
