    Underestimate Swifties at your peril. Live Nation-Ticketmaster has been a loathed monopoly for years and they screwed up one Taylor Swift sale and there were Congressional hearings and a lawsuit filed by the Department of Justice joined by 30 states’ Attorneys General.

      Indeed. I’m delighted that LN/TM is finding out after fucking around so much for so long.

      On an unrelated note, props for the usage of the correct plural form 🍻

      Taylor Swift sucks almost as much as the people who like her music.

      I don’t actually think that but I’d rather see that than all this ‘taylor swift fans are the mightiest force in the universe’ crap good lord. Causes headaches on account of all the involuntary spastic eye rolling.

      Kpop too lol

        It’s not so much a special capacity of swifties, but that they’re probably the only large unified bloc anywhere on the electoral left. I like them because they’re a large enough group of progressive liberals to prove that a unified front is absolutely effective
