I will never defend the Orange Pile of goo, but his comment is basically saying, "because she endorsed the other person, people will quit supporting her music". Which is a load of shit. Her fans will not make her pay a price "in the marketplace".

Dixie Chicks, the original victims of cancel culture, DID suffer in the marketplace, because the demographic of their fanbase was generally Conservative. And they did pay a price simply because the singer of that band said something like they were ashamed GW Bush was from Texas. THAT. WAS. IT. Totally benign, yet cost them. The same will not happen with Swift.
