I'm out of the loop, what happened with Taylor Swift? I know she private jets everywhere but something happened recently to cause this sudden wave of memes no?

I think what set off the recent wave is when she threatened legal action against the person posting her private jet's tracking information. She (or her legal team) was alleging that it enabled stalking, but the tracking data is public information so stalkers would already have had access to it.

Ah the good ol Streisand effect. When will these rich people learn?

I didn't know any of this until I started seeing 7 memes a day about it. Now I too keep up with the flight paths. Good job T

No, this was started with FOX news bashing her jet usage, and the joke was that FOX would have to explain why CO2 was bad. Then the insane conspiracy theory that 20% of USArs now believe. Then she used legal action against someone tracking her jet (possibly because of death threads).

But the fox news propaganda worked! Now even liberals are focusing their hatred on her. I have to give it to fox news, very well done. That's the way you topple a female icon like taylor swift, you attack her purity. The money for crafting this PR strategy was well spend. I'd love to know the person who came up with the idea and thank him for basically solving climate change!

AI made these memes require essentially zero effort for skill to make.

I think it started after she took a 13-minute flight

Since the Superbowl, hating on Taylor Swift wins the male teenager vote.

That's not it at all, no matter how hard you try to twist it that way. I'm a liberal and love what she has done in terms of voting. This has nothing to do with any of that. This is making fun of her for being an out of touch rich person, WHO IS SUING THE KID who posted her plane info. That's why I think she's an idiot, because she's killing all the good will she built up, by going after someone for something that's already public

Nah, cringe lord male teenagers are the culprit, you’re just biting their bait. They’ll go back to Kanye support in 25 minutes.

The heavily right leaning middle aged male vote that pretends to be climate friendly left leaning teens.*

Just like half the people I see shouting ACAB. The others are just REALLY left and tend to lean young.
