Bud Light boycott movement goes after Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce

[Coventina]

Travis Kelce arguably became the most recognizable player in the National Football League when Taylor Swift showed up on Sept. 24 to sit with his mom while the Kansas City Chiefs beat the Chicago Bears.

The two have been rumored to be dating since Kelce expressed his interest in the singer on a social-media page. Arguably the biggest star in the world (sorry, Beyonce, BTS, and Harry Styles), Swift has been on a long stadium concert tour that has smashed records.

She's a savvy businessperson who has turned past relationships with John Mayer, Jake Gyllenhaal and Joe Jonas into hit songs. Swift has also mastered the media-coverage cycle, and with a film version of her "Eras" tour headed to theaters in October, it's not a bad time for her to increase her public profile.

It's hard to know whether Swift and Kelce are beginning to date, dating or just making themselves more famous with a carefully planned public flirtation. In reality it doesn't matter because real relationships often don't work out and fake ones have an odd way of becoming real.

What I find amusing about this is that there is all this right-wing hate directed at Kelce, Bud Light, and Pfizer, but no right winger seems eager to directly hate on Taylor Swift.

Is she too big to criticize?

3. I don't know her music,

but the woman is smart. She knows how to market herself.

They don't dare hate her.

(She gets people to register to vote).

9. I have never heard her

And I doubt her music would be to my taste, but I can proudly say I'm a Swiftie. The a-holes don't stand a chance against her.

4. All the MAGAs could boycott all her shows...

...and they will still sellout in minutes. She has a lot of freedom to impact public opinion because she's so popular 40% of the country cannot even dent her.

5. Not a good move. Pi$$ing off Swifties and Chiefs fans

Entirely different demographics ... meaning you are ticking off literally everyone

[JackSabbath]

6. Oh Please pick a fight with the swifties!

There are millions and millions of them. Taylor posted an Instagram to encourage voter registration and the next day 35,000 registered. Magats, if you're listening, please try to boycott Taylor Swift!

[TSExile]

7. Pass the popcorn, please!!

These suckers can't beat the Swifties...not even close!!

[Croney]

10. Well, aren't they mean!

11. Bud Light's weakness was that it was all about "brand", and had no quality at all

so the deranged MAGA hordes were happy to give it up in favour of whatever other weak piss someone could market to them. Kelce is, I understand, a very good football player, and Swift is, of course, the most popular singer in the world now - and you don't get to that without having the qualities pop music values. I think they'll brush off the rabid boycotters.

12. It's the Disney situation. All their threatened boycotts of Disney never go anywhere.

Why?

Because just try and live your life without Disney:

Do you have kids? Forget it!!

Do you like Star Wars?

Do you like the Marvel MCU?

Do you like the Muppets?

Do you like the Simpsons, Family Guy, Bob's Burgers, etc.?

on edit: Do you like ESPN?

There is hardly anyone in the US who isn't covered by something in the above list.
They do not have the courage of their convictions, when it comes down to it.
