I don’t follow Swift or her die-hard fans, but this white supremacist" bit is news to me. Is this a real documented fact, or the usual overblown internet reaction to an assumption based on an extrapolation from a decade-old retweet?
From a quick search, it appears that a bunch of white supremacists revere her as something like a goddess, and the feeling is absolutely not mutual - in 2019, she unambiguously and firmly denounced white supremacy and alt-right stuff in general in a Rolling Stone interview.
Why do they revere her? Like I get that she is a very beautiful white woman, but there are lots of those. There has to be more than just “she’s hot and white so we’ve made her our goddess” right?
So you’re saying it’s not news to you that a rock concert could cause an earthquake? Because it’s sure as hell news to me. Does it matter who was playing at the concert?
Words can have more than one definition… you’re looking at what constitutes a Natural Disaster Earthquake, there’s also just the definition, earthquake….
And yes, seismic activity l absolutely can shake buildings and crack pavement… you’re now contradicting yourself? Do you even know what point you’re arguing anymore?
She didn’t, she caused seismic activity, that when high enough on the Richter scale would constitute an earthquake.
You tried correcting someone and were wrong mate, this is entirely on you lmfao. If you can’t take it, don’t fucking dish it you mook.
Go back and read the comments again… lmfao. They never said she caused an earthquake, they key word you completely missed was “could”. They also never in fact mentioned her at all in the comment even! As I said you don’t even know what you’re arguing anymore.
It’s celebrity news regarding a known white supremacist, her fanbase is notoriously disgusting and racist and often attacks people of color.
This community doesn’t need that kind of garbage, there’s plenty of it on reddit

Overblown internet nonsense.

No, I honestly don’t think there’s any more to it than that. She’s an attractive, famous, and successful white lady. That’s kinda it.

It didn’t cause an earthquake. Did you not read your own article?
Did they say it did? They said could.
And if it registers high enough on the Rochester scale, what else would we call it when it reaches high enough?
But it can’t. Earthquakes are caused by the earth’s plates shifting. Unless Taylor Swift can move tectonic plates, it’s not an earthquake.
We would call it what they called it. Seismic activity.
Taylor Swift isn’t going to shake buildings and crack pavement.

She didn’t cause an earthquake. I can’t believe I’m having this discussion. Fucking ridiculous.

There’s just trolls everywhere isn’t there?
This is what I responded to. A rock concert CANNOT cause a fucking earthquake. Which is exactly what I said.
Go touch come grass kid.
The kind of garbage this community doesn’t need are your blatant lies.
What nonsense. If Lemmy is gonna be full of shit like this, maybe it’s not for me.
Redditors are already turning it into Reddit. Logical arguments get voted down and following the hive gets voted up.
Thank goodness for the multiple instances.
When I find one that kicks the Reddit bullshit out- I’ll remain there.
lmao wut?
