What a fucking weirdo for smashing a guitar with a hammer

I know Weirdo is the current kinda forced (IMO) word we're hurling at the magas these days, but that kind of behavior is legit weird. Like really weird.

There's obviously the "some people have more money than brains" angle of dropping 4K on something so you can destroy it.

Then there's the "I'm a grown-ass man, and I'm so insecure about a female celebrity endorsing a politician I disagree with that I'm going to drop 4K so that I can publicly and in front of cameras showcase that insecurity for the entire world to see, while gloating and being proud of it" angle. (Which by the way, smoothbrain magas, serves to amplify her endorsement, not diminish it.)

I can't promise I'm not going to drive around with "Fuck Donald Trump" blaring and my windows down all during election day and the day after (regardless of outcome), but I'm not going to spend $4k for the privilege, and I'm sure as hell not going to do it for an assembled audience.

I'm pretty sure - wait, hear me out - that Taylor Swift is still able to sign her name, and that - you won't believe this - other guitars exist.

This is just sad. He could have given it to a kid on a cancer ward who loves Taylor Swift. He probably has grandkids who love her music, they could have had it. He surely has kids in his neighbourhood who love her music, could have donated it to a youth music group or something. But this is what he chooses to do with it. To impress a man who still doesn't know how to apply foundation after 50+ years of using it, apparently just rolling his face across a tableful of it each morning like he's fingerprinting his head.

If Trump doesn't even so much as 'truth' about this, I think this silly fuck is gonna feel genuine grief. He's probably expecting a phone call, or even a meeting & photo op next time Trump's in town. "I spent 4 grand to do this, surely he'll notice me!"

Sad, sad, sad.

Shame about the guitar, but on the bright side: This seems like a good way to trick conservatives into donating to charities.

1. celebrity angers conservatives by being normal
2. celebrity donates merch to charity
3. charity starts an auction for merch
4. conservatives buy it

One less signed guitar, makes the others more valuable right? 🤔🤣

This is just like the chicken-hawk conservative dipshits buying expensive French wine just so they could publicly pour it down a storm drain in front of reporters. And all because France didn't agree with the invasion of Iraq (which we now know was founded on lies).

Time truly is a closed loop.

I'd do this to a conservative celebrity, but for $4000 I could buy Kevin Sorbo's whole sad fucking life.

And she laughed at him all the way to the bank.

It reminds me of the weirdoes buying wine to splill it down the drain when France had the audacity of telling the truth in the un during the whole Irak mess. Of course the wine makers and sellers were fine with that.

Imagine this 65 year old man, sitting at home listing to All Too Well, because he could really relate to dating a Jake Gyllenhaal type, then Taylor tweets that she’s all in for Harris, and his world comes crashing down.

I wonder if it was really Taylor Swifts guitar, or if this was all just political theater.

What a great way to motivate Swifties into voting.

Well he convinced me!

I not going to vote for Taylor Swift for President.

What a waste, children in Africa could have eaten that guitar.

$4000 dollars to hate, $0 for love.

She endorsed a lady for prez, so we should performatively destroy things linked with her. It totally makes sense. /s

Sigh…

So I watched the video and watched as the guy was handed the hammer with the guitar. Was the auction a chance to destroy the guitar or just the guitar? Cause it looks like the former and the media is just reporting what will piss people off.

I had to look this thing up, but it's pretty much exactly what I expected

Lots of money to make one look silly.

Huh... So that's what Bansky looks like.

should require a license to handle your own money. minimum intelligence measurement at least
