Joe Biden, Travis Kelce, Taylor Swift, and George Soros rule the world
Just the way Dark Brandon drew it up, eh?
You won't even see what is put right on the table before you. Men. If it was raining soup you'd be out there with a fork.

One of the most thoroughly amusing things about the very public Travis Kelce-Taylor Swift romance has been the degree to which Right-wing incels have gone to use it to create and/or justify numerous conspiracy theories. Many of the same guys who said they were done with the NFL after Former San Francisco QB Colin Kaepernick took a knee are WAY too concerned about Taylor Swift’s similarities to Yoko Ono.
They’re afraid that T-Swift’s “feminine wiles” will distract Kelce and cause his on-field performance to suffer. This concern comes from a bunch of impotent know-it-all incels who’ve never gotten laid the night before a game and then gone out and had a great game.
Because guess what? There’s no connection between sexual activity and athletic performance. Besides, Kelce is a professional athlete at the top of his game; whether or not he gets laid has nothing to do with how he performs on the field.
And while the Kelce-Swift romance may have dominated social media…and the headspace of Right-wing incels…the amount of time that Taylor Swift has been shown on television during Kansas City Chiefs games has been less than one might think. In fact, the average time that Swift’s been on camera has been about 35 seconds.
Jan. 28.- Chiefs @ Ravens
Times shown: 4 | Total duration: 32 seconds
Travis’s day: 11 catches, 116 yards, 1 touchdown
Score: Chiefs 17, Ravens 10On a huge day for Mr. Kelce, in which he broke the N.F.L.’s record for career postseason receptions, the CBS broadcast showed Ms. Swift only four times during the game. But in a moment of pure corporate synergy, 17 seconds — more than half of her total airtime — were an in-house promo for the network’s upcoming broadcast of the Grammys.
“By the way, the Grammys, live, next Sunday, right here on CBS,” Jim Nantz said near the end of the first half as the camera cut to Ms. Swift. “There’s Taylor Swift, and she’s going to be there at the Grammys.”
Ms. Swift was not shown during the second half of the tightly contested game, but after the game concluded, she was visible on the field for the postgame scrum, along with numerous other friends and family of Chiefs players who were celebrating the team having earned a trip to the Super Bowl.
Taylor Swift being allowed onto the field to celebrate with Travis Kelce is no different from the wives and girlfriends of other players doing the same. Of course, none of the other WAGs are world-famous pop stars with millions of followers.
The impressive aspect of the Kelce-Swift collaboration is how, in a relatively short time, they’ve managed to set up shop in the heads of Right-wing incels rent-free. These intellectual and moral non-entities are convinced that the couple, in coordination with Joe Biden and George Soros, not only rigged the Super Bowl for the Kansas City Chiefs but are actively working to re-elect Dark Brandon.
Oh, and it gets weirder….
DEMONS, I TELL YOU!!! DEMONS!!!!
Right…Travis Kelce is a football player, and Taylor Swift is a musician/singer. While they’re both phenomenally talented, I wouldn’t think casting spells and summoning demons would be in their respective wheelhouses.
And then there’s this:
Is Ice Spice wearing demonic clothing? What does that even mean? Is this incel upset because these folks are wearing clothes that cost more than he makes in a month?
Or is he upset because they’re having more fun than he’ll likely have in 2024?
And then there’s this assclown, who either has way too much time on his hands…or he ran out of beer before halftime:
“These people work for and worship the Devil.” Seriously? WTF??
Did these poor brainiacs never party when they were in college? Did they even go to college? Have they never played a drinking game? Have they never let their hair down even once? What is so wrong with people having fun, especially at an event like a Super Bowl?
I think they’re jealous that people who are wealthier, better connected, more talented, and far more successful than they’ll ever be are having more fun than they’ll ever manage to have.
Sure, you can hate Taylor Swift and her friends for being far more wealthy than you are and making no effort to hide it…but that’s a “you” problem. So they’re twenty- and thirty-somethings engaging in drinking games and perhaps even enjoying themselves a wee bit too much. But they’re the ones who have to deal with the hangover, not you. That’s their problem, not yours. Why do you care?
Or are you just that envious?
And what’s with the fixation with the “demonic clothing” and “demonic and Satanic hand gestures” that you know little, if anything, about? You don’t recognize the signs…ergo, they’re evil and Satanic; is that how it goes?
[M]any people pointed out that Ice Spice’s “satanic” hand gestures actually just looked like the classic “rock on” hand gesture (aka devil horns), and that she did it while music was playing.
Iconic heavy metal singer Ronnie James Dio helped popularize the gesture, but said he learned it from his Italian family, who used it to ward off the “evil eye,” and that it had nothing to do with supporting Satan….
As silly as this particular conspiracy theory is, it could actually help the bond that Ice Spice has with Swift, who has also been accused of being in bed with the devil.
Last October, Kandiss Taylor, who ran a losing campaign to be governor of Georgia last year on a “Jesus Guns Babies” platform, claimed the singer was putting “some satanic nods” in her show and “celebrating witchcraft.”
The ignorant and judgmental hate they direct at what they can’t be bothered to understand is childish and immature in the extreme. No one’s worshipping Satan or throwing “demonic gestures.” They’re just having fun…which is more than the moronic assclowns condemning them can understand.
Sure, if you don’t understand it, why not just hate on the people having way more fun than you’re capable of on your best day? After all, it’s no fun being a miserable excuse for humanity if you can’t force others to share your misery.
So, yes, Taylor Swift is having more fun than most of us will ever have…as is Travis Kelce, and that’s OK. Both of them have worked hard to get where they are. They’ve sacrificed, done what they needed to do, and capitalized on the opportunities that came their way. Good for them; they should be able to enjoy their individual and collective success. By all indications, they’re good people who surround themselves with good people. They lift others up because it feels better than dragging them down.
You can, like Right-wing incels and the rest of the small minds, hate them because you’re not them. Or you can celebrate them for their accomplishments and enjoy what their success has brought the rest of us.
If you can don’t that…well, you can take your small-minded, angry, envious self and find someone who cares because no one needs negative assholes like you hanging around. People like you will never accomplish anything- unless you consider tearing down others an “accomplishment.”
I prefer to surround myself with people who celebrate the successes of others and aren’t motivated by hatred, envy, and jealousy. That feels better than trying to drag people down to your level, knowhutimean??
