God what an insufferable ass fanbase

Billie and it's not even close. Taylor might be worse than Selena G.

I wish this were true.

Yep. Anytime a poc, trans or gay person criticizes Biden the Biden supporters threaten that person with having their rights taken away or accuse them of being a Trump supporter rather than listening.

I have seen countless of random people discussing about this on the streets.

First Disney and now this. Congrats, Comrade Scarlett. Eat them up.

That's sad, I always associate dazzler with having amazing vocals...

we unironically celebrate that no other men can compete with her too. why the exclusion?

The closet Trump and Russian stans are worse. But these topics should stay in civics.

Same thing happened to Taylor hunty

Because we are tired of you people acting like not voting is a better choice. There's a lot more at stake than the damn Palestine and Isarael war.

Yes

I never liked Biden but some of yall on here make me more sympathetic to him. I've seen "progressives" gloating about Trump winning just to pwn!!! Biden and at some point you realize you're just witnessing textbook edgelord fuckery, radicalism in the opposite direction of the far right that basically amounts to the horseshoe theory ringing true

Why are we stanning politicians

The usual suspects are just itching for the Biden L. For them, the ability to yell I told you so at the libs and to bask in their hated enemy Biden's defeat is so emotionally enticing that they become blind to the threat that Trump poses. They won't directly admit to it, of course, but you can read it from their posts and their emphasis choices. Biden losing is worth Trump winning - that is the truth of what they're arguing for and what they actually believe, even though they try to hide it behind other issues. I say this as someone that has never liked Biden for one minute, and also as someone that doesn't care about non-voting. But to those users - just be honest about where your emotions actually are.

Oh he's circuiting? I'm sure that starburst is much closer to a smashed beef patty at this point.

We stan Marcia in this household

It can get hard but you gotta laugh it off. As a fanbase, we always win in the long run. We get music, success, quality, acclaim, awards, and record breaking legendary history being made right before our eyes. We truly have nothing to be miserable about. They always lose, and that's why they're so miserable.

This. I'm convinced that certain users here would genuinely be okay with Project 2025 happening just so they could feel superior to neolibs and like they've "won"

Isolated VOCALS really triggered them

3,2,1 til somebody complains about Biden...

The obsession and bitterness towards any other successful female whether that's Ariana, Billie or Beyonce, I know where they get it.

ATRL would be clutching their pearls if this were Taylor

This... this is the best you could come up with to shade her? Oh she's really on the up and up huh.

No one stans Joe Biden. He's the least stannable politician out of Obama, Bernie, Hillary, and even Trump. We just don't want to casually slip into an autocracy because people hate their boring lives. You know?

I have to wonder if the vitriol towards Biden (some of it justifiably earned by his blunders, some of it driven by some internal pathology of hatred for the man) will be maintained to this level when Trump is elected and say, arranges for a few of the SC justices to slip in the shower and fall out a window, or to be run off a bridge by an invisible drunk driver, and then appoints replacements who feel that what America really needs to succeed is mass disenfranchisement and democratic backsliding. When this country reverts back to a political system resembling say, Tsarist Russia or late Republican Rome, I wonder if those who place all blame onto Biden and who have repeatedly stated that they hate him just as much as Trump will still feel the same. I mean, just up-thread are comments placing the blame for several policies entirely out of his control at his feet, and I wonder if y'all will keep that up when Trump disembowels the constitution and all of his opposition. Where were you when Senator XYZ fell victim to a public firing squad? I was on atrl.net making sure everyone knows I think it's Joe Biden's fault! If we're allowed access to the internet in our conversion camps and if access to this website is maintained by the new regime, I'd love to keep in touch with some of y'all, just to hear your takes on the news (if we're allowed to see it, of course)

I really do look forward to Communion's posts during the Trump presidency to be completely honest, can't wait

she better block that loser

As much as i enjoy Taylor's massive commercial comeback since Midnights i really despise how unrealistic some Swifties's standards have become for what a "successful" single is. Were you guys even there during 2017-2021 or did you just become stans after her 2022 comeback? Because those random meltdowns about supposed "flop" singles is getting really weird, ESPECIALLY since she's still firmly #1 on Spotify Global. I really fear what's gonna happen once she starts to TRULY decline (which will inevitably happen at some point), will you guys even be fans anymore?

This thread is about Revenue for Stockholm as written in the title, not tour gross. Math ain't mathing indeed...

It must be triggering for ATRL to see someone they perceived as not having global influence due to her absence in Europe surpassing all their supposed global faves, whose accomplishments primarily hailed from Europe and now Taylor is surpassing them just like that. She's really something else.

Lock Biden up with him. He's an accomplice.

Yeah, it's totally different. You can stream an album in a loop the whole day and not even listen to it. But those streams still count for the certifications. This streaming era really inflated some artists fame. It's a sham.

i can't believe i'm finally seeing her this saturday after 12 years

You say a lot of stuff, and I will never read any of it

I hate Biden and have never supported him, but I don't want Project 2025 to happen, I can't live in a theocratic dictatorship. I don't think people understand what is at stake here, democracy and our lives, literally.

I don't think they even know what vocals are considering who they stan.

Really cannot wait until all of this is over. The “both sides of the same coin” people and the “Biden’s failed the left” people I hope are able to survive the Trump presidency they’re certainly low key rooting for going to get. I mean they were only asking for a candidate who would do what they need without even having a substantive list of achievements on a local/state/federal level they can point to in order to convince people to vote for them all the while meeting all of their demands and feels of squishy loveable wuvable feels). Damn that selfish, arrogant, old man Biden who wouldn’t resign and let someone without a record of achievement run against Trump! #AnyoneButBiden Thankfully I live in a blue state. Hopefully we’ll be protected enough through the next 4-8+ years of Trump’s vengeful presidency.

She did say "the future's bright...dazzling"

are you sure your college professor isn't @little legend because i'm sure he's been calling her that since 2013

any artist who had a smash album is gonna experience some kinda underperformance. Adele: 30 after 25 Ariana: positions after thank u, next Bey: 4 after Sasha Fierce Billie: HTE after WWAFAWDWG Britney: Self Titled after Oops Doja: Scarlet after Planet Her Gaga: ARTPOP after Born This Way Janet: Damita Jo after All For You Katy: Witness after Prism Mariah: Butterfly after Daydream Rihanna: Rated R after GGGB

It makes me happy that Max was at the Stockholm show and she did a medley for him that era of her career is so magical to me On page 1939 no less

by any chance would u happen to be maga?

Palestine being the deal breaker is so wild to me. A Trump presidency it's just going to hasten the process

This is insulting to Billie. Her Oscar performance of WWIMF alone proved she can actually belt and has volume and control to her voice. This is not a "but the storytelling" or "great gowns beautiful gowns" case like the other one. She can actually sing.
