OK the memes were funny at first, but is it starting to feel a little astroturfy in here? Like, is her telling everyone they need to vote actually that scary for establishment politics?
The private plane thing is definitely hypocritical, but we’re singling her out from every single celebrity that also does that. Maybe I don’t follow her story close enough to know why, but it seems like the only thing that makes her different from the other celebrities is that she made conservatives mad about voting, and young people like her?
I could be wrong, but the reason I'm annoyed with her specifically isn't because of the use of private planes (I am annoyed by it, but that isn't specific to her). I'm annoyed with her legally harassing the person that made a bot that used publicly available data to track her plane(s).
That's why I am specifically amused by these posts, not sure if it's the same for everyone.
That tracks. Celebrity stuff usually annoys me, so I avoid news about it. There’s just been too many Swift Plane jokes to ignore lately.
"She" is a business, I doubt it was specifically her that did anything.
I mean... tbh I wouldn't like somebody to track all my movements with my car and make them public to all to see.
I mean technically they are already tracked in my case at minimum by Google explicitly by me in my case as I share my location and I have tracking enabled, but they don't share directly with all people to see, so Tom that doesn't like me can go and cut my tires. There might be a security flaw some day....and Tom might get access but in my case I will risk it.
Yes, but in your example your location is not posted to publicly available records. If she doesn't like that an air planes flight records are publicly available for anyone to look up, she should contact her representative, or otherwise campaign to have the law changed, not harass someone who is basically just copying and pasting information from one public database no one is on to a public space everyone is on.
Beyond that I would also add my opinion that for the average person hiring extra security or taking extra precautions is an undo burden. For someone who is worth more than I will make in 250 lifetimes I don't think it's unreasonable to say that is one of the costs of the path that she has chosen to travel.
Well yeah but that is available and public doesn't mean that I would like a guy to shout it all around. I mean... you can also just follow me on the street and you will see where I am going, it's public, that doesn't mean that I will be happy to know you take notes and share it to everybody letting them know where I go every second of my life.
Sure they are public figures and it is what it is, and of course I am against the harassing I wasn't saying that is ok and sure they will live they can deal with it but that doesn't mean that it doesn't annoy them or bother them and that due to that can cause them to react badly to it and overreact, they are human after all like the rest of us.
And honestly I wasn't even talking about security, yeah my example in my case was that but honestly is not just that.
All aircraft have APRS transponders on them and the info is public, the plane is tracked, she isn't.
Yeah I know that. In any case I said my car as example because I don't go by plane... but yeah it's not exactly the same as my car doesn't have a radio that allows anybody track it.
But you're also not obscenely wealthy because of being a public figure, kinda different rules, no?
She shouldn't have sued the guy, that's what caused these memes. Her own stupid reactions, not anything Republicans are saying
Oooh. That makes it make a lot more sense to me.
I don't follow celebrities, because I generally don't give any shits about what they do. So I'm pretty far in the dark on this one, you just turned on the light. Thanks.
It's basically the musk plane fiasco but with lawsuits and Taylor Swift. It makes sense.
In Musk's case, he bought Twitter to shut down the account (at least partly, let's be honest), and in Taylor's case, she's going for a legal solution and bluntly, even if it's heard in court, she is very unlikely to win, just make life difficult for the guy for a while. Whatever. Stupid stuff really.
We’re just having a laugh, mate, calm down.
Pretty sure this will peter out soon anyways, I mean, how many more airplane jokes can you make before it gets old?
I haven’t felt this awful since we saw that Ronald Reagan film
