As Michael Jordan once said, \u00a0paraphrased of course, \u201c<em>Republicans buy shoes too<\/em>.\u201d Since the country music world mostly comprises conservatives, Swift made her name as a non-political country songstress.<\/p>\n<p>That all changed in October 2018 when Swift made some strong pro-LGBTQ statements on her new record. She also started speaking out about perceived racial injustices. It was, of course, the same tired, false narrative that the left has parroted with great success for decades.<\/p>\n<p>Her ideologic reveal also coincided with her full immersion into the pop scene. It simply isn\u2019t profitable to be a conservative pop star. Whether Swift believed the rhetoric or not, her conversion was complete.<\/p>\n<p>With the 33-year-old in the middle of the \u201cEra\u2019s\u201d tour and Pride Month upon us, Swift made a point during her Chicago show to speak out and breathe new life into leftist causes.

The fact is, Chicago is an extremely safe place to be any LGBTQ member.<\/p>\n<p>However, since we know self-proclaimed marginalized people love nothing more than attention and to be patted on the head as if having a particular sexual proclivity is something to be \u201cproud\u201d of, Swift seized the moment and whipped the crowd into a prideful frenzy.<\/p>\n<p>She\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/pagesix.com\/2023\/06\/03\/taylor-swift-celebrates-lgbtqia-fans-on-tour\/?utm_source=facebook&amp;utm_campaign=nypost&amp;sr_share=facebook&amp;utm_medium=social&amp;fbclid=IwAR2efBa6BtsDALLeyXY5lhwBzLIkfj27_2lH-Sh4A5DR2pSxabQI0x7JeYI\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">continued<\/a>:\u00a0<em>\u201cThis is a celebratory space for you.

Since that is statistically very unlikely, perhaps it was a stadium full of people that like catchy, watered-down pop tunes and country tunes that remind them of when they were ten years younger. Considering Taylor Swift\u2019s lengthy track record as a touring musician, she should know that people tend to, you know, sing along to the songs they know.

She is also free to spout as much woke propaganda as she wants; after all, it is her show. Some of us will even still secretly love her music.
