BOOMBAYAH Posted July 16 Posted July 16 The issue with being friends with people who don't share your politics is that even if you avoid direct political discussions like "Who are you voting for?" or "Republican vs. Democrat," their politics will still seep into your apolitical friendship because politics encompasses literally everything, not just candidates and legislation. If you're friends with someone who is conservative, they will make little comments or act strangely when you stray from traditional conventions. As someone here mentioned, someone like Taylor has it easier because she's white and a billionaire, so the most her weirdo friends can do to annoy her is make sexist comments, which they probably won't slip up with because she's the most famous woman in the world. Additionally, Taylor is a celebrity, so everyone around her will kiss up to her. 5 5 1

I always see people assume he is online, so was wondering if there was any truth to it. Edited July 16 by Edonis
AlbumOfTheYear Posted July 16 Posted July 16 (edited) Some of us KEEP telling you and you don't pay attention. Point is, a person's friends are a reflection of themselves. If Taylor were a fraction of a decent person she would put her money where her mouth is, but we all know she protects her dollar by only speaking up when the political climate favors her.

If you want to be friends with someone like that then that's up to you, I can't relate though and thank god my friends feel the same. I don't befriend trump supporters, but I also don't make some sort of public exile of them when they happen to be the additional extras of a group I am hanging out with. Like this random couple that has no prior ties to Taylor or Travis seem to be. Critical thinking is a lost art. Also, this may be a bit too merciful, but not every Trump supporter is a bigot. A lot of them are truly stupid enough to just like Trump because he's not a traditional politician. Not that stupidity should be applauded but I like to see the good in some of them instead of immediately assuming the worst. Politics are too divisional, I don't like to contribute to that because it's how the bureaucrats retain their power — by keeping the working class fighting amongst themselves.

You can be friends with someone who has other political beliefs than you. I used to feel this way and had a best friend who I originally had a HUGE crush on who eventually revealed himself to be a trumpster. he did so many things wrong in our friendship, but none more upsetting to me than bringing his turning point friends around me one day and leading them to think that I was on their side. my college years were a dizzying rollercoaster in general, but they got really depressing when I realized that someone I confided in about my personal life often was purposeful in his dodging of giving a positive opinion. he denied that our trans friend was actually a trans woman and that he "knew her before college and she's just lying for attention," without ever explaining why he felt that way after I asked. he showed me who Steven Crowder and Matt Walsh were, thinking I'd somehow be convinced by them. he tried to convince me that turning point was a moderate group that I'd like. he went from dodging political conversations to flat out spewing bigotry against my community and then backing it with "oh well not YOU though, Joe!" you can think what you think, but I personally disagree at this point. that guy betrayed my trust and made me feel so bad. I can be civil with people I don't know if they're not spewing hate towards me or my community, but if I KNOW you're standing against everything I am and my friends are, I won't bother with you, know what I mean? 14

This "person" is not a friend of Taylor's therefore there is no reflection being cast on her. Yall are ridiculous sometimes It is the first and only photo or instance we have ever seen of her with this person, and it will probably be the last.

cat1867 Posted July 16 Posted July 16 These people are just friends of her bf. travis is a democrat but the majority of football players, coaches, owners are republicans. same thing for all the major sports except the nba.
wastedpotential Posted July 16 Posted July 16 Those people literally aren't even Travis's friends, they're Patrick and Brittany Mahomes' friends, and they all just went to dinner I've certainly gone to dinners or events and discovered while there that someone I didn't know was a Trump voter, but that doesn't mean I'm gonna go out of my way to ignore them, let alone leave the party If I stopped talking to people who voted for Trump I'd have one cousin and like four colleagues left 2

Like Katty Perry, the bulling she has nowadays because she worked with Dr Luke. Guilty by association. People don`t know how to separate things. For Taylor being friends with republicans doesn`t mean that she suport them, and if she does, its her right. Like Katty, if she is friend with him doesn`t means that she suports the dirty thing he did, if he really did. People dont have the right to learn with their mistakes? For cancel generation no. 2 3

SimpleKindofLife Posted July 16 Posted July 16 I'm almost certain that Travis is a republican, that shouldn't be a shock to anybody. I do believe that Taylor is a democrat but it would really be great if she spoke about voting again come this next election cycle, her influence is undeniable and she has a gigantic grip on white female voters who've historically proven to teeter between democrat and republican.

No. He was condemned by public opinion. I dont know what really happened, the same way i believe that she told the true, is the same way that i think that all that situation was so bad explained. For both parts. And i believe when people are judged and pay their debt to society they have the right to another oportunity as Keisha has the right to public condemn him. As i know they settled. He has the right to work, and Katty has the right to work with who she wants. And you know that in that business the moneys speaks louder. 1 4

I don't intend to argue that point as it's not the discussion topic of this thread. My point is that I find the situations incomparable, regardless of the side of the argument one is on 1

bad guy Posted July 16 Posted July 16 Not even a Swift defender by any means but she's a wealthy woman going on a date night with her wealthy pro-athlete boyfriend and his pro-athlete friends/wives. If you think these circles are all Biden supporters then you are living in a major bubble. 1

LosingHimWasBlue Posted July 16 Posted July 16 (edited) Y'all so ungrateful *** to still accuse her being republican. Because of her support and endorse, Joe Biden wins the election against Trump in 2020!!!! Meanwhile when Katy fully endorsed Hillary in 2016, TRUMP WINS against Hillary.
