If Taylor Swift was in the 1830s 

Oh man the swifties went in lol. Crowdfund some chill guys.

She really needs to speak up for Palestine!

I am not a fan of Swift, but I can’t stand people who want celebrities to be perfect when it comes social issues. If anyone believes if Swift speaking out on Palestine will change what’s happening in Israel, then I guess they must be related to the same people who said Trump won the 2016 election because she kept quiet.

And about intersectionality. Taylor literally has black dancers in Eras Tour. She collabs with black singers like Ice Spice, Kendrick Lamaar, Future, she is friends with Ice Spice, Selena Gomez, Zoe Kravitz, Gigi Hadid (who is half Palestinian), and she is also supporting Olivia Rodrigo who is like daughter to her, and you know that Olivia is half Filipina. She also supported Beyonce on her concert film premiere. Besides, you people are so hypocritical, you blame Taylor for wanting to go to 1830s in her 8 years old without the racism, but you also know and love watching a show Bridgerton which is actually the same historical era without racism!

problematic is an understatement. But at least her music is awesome

I don't know Swift that well so I don't get the parody here. Still feels off though?

@@RecklessFables it isn't a parody. The point she's making is that the 1830s were a shitty time to be alive, especially for people who weren't white men.

Pretty sure it’s all a joke on White Feminism (TM).

​@@RecklessFables I just listened to the song and read the lyrics afterward to know what all the fuss was about.

What is the name of the song?? (I don't know her songs)

review her openers

She has many friends in our community but sure, keep telling yourself a narrative that allows you to hate on her 🙄

@@josepha133 hate is gross and it doesn’t look good on anyone. So much love to you beautiful soul 🦄💗

@@josepha133 How does that usually work when someone says "I have many ________ friends"? I'll answer it for you, because I'm an old guy who's been around: not well. It never works well in any situation when someone says "My best friend is _______." It's been that way since way before the internet. Let me put it to you this way: I was 13 when Stonewall happened. I know a little about a lot of things.

⁠@@tetedur377but that’s the thing about Taylor Swift - she never says “I have so many ____ friends”. It’s her friends in *that community* that point out how she became friends with them. That is significantly different than when you say it about yourself.

Daddy Squarespace can handle them.

They already have :‘)

The swifties are mad lol 😅

hahaha they have

Same

This still literally happens even today tbh so yea 💀

1600's. In the 1800's, she would've been written off as a spinster.

she would've been fine because everything else is the same in this imaginary 1800s so she's still a white wealthy daughter of a powerful man. they were just ignored if they said anything controversial.

“They’re burning all the witches even if you aren’t one”

@@CattIsANerd just because she says something in a song doesnt make it true lmao. grow some brain cells weirdo.

I was just about to write this comment...

She’s says how nostalgia is a mind’s trick and no place is actually better. Everywhere has systematic problems. CollegeHumor/Dropout did a sketch on this years ago

Which song?

@@rtd1791 it’s called I Hate It Here, it’s really good

Thank you. Someone with listening comprehension skills.

And it’s one of the most popular shows right now

It's without the racism without saying it's without the racism so it's fine. 😂

Right??? How do we know Taylor just isn’t a huge Bridgerton fan??

@@HaleyMary It's the way she said KHWEEEEELLL for me 😂

It was a tragic event and shouldn't be part of anyone's attempt at comedy.

Same. I was expecting this to be hilarious and it just wasn't funny at all.

And I'm still waiting for Taylor to make a good song

stop driding taylor

This is what her inner monologue sounds like.

​@@johnhenry1190 🤦🏼‍♀️ This is yours: 👶🏼🧸

Look up the lyrics to Taylor’s song “I Hate it Here”. It has a reference to wanting to live in the 1830s, except without the racism and being married off to the highest bidder.

They were the truly horrific subjects left out of the song I Hate It Here, ie. whitewashing the 1830s.

Really really rude, and disrespectful to women in general. 🦄

@@becauseunicorns1108 thank youuu

@@_a.sweet.escape_ You are quite welcome 💞🦄💪

It was freezing in the palace, but what people don’t realize is it was also incredibly lonely, and also scary to walk through at night

I would like this comment, but I can't, it has 13 likes and should stay that way.

Skit was still funny as hell

This. So disappointing.

bye

Hope she has some black attire for this terrible lost

@@rafateixeira2097lmao

Yes

​@@Kxtrasa It could be smart. But it's not.

Yeah, I didn't find it funny either... Just a tad insulting tbh

It's hilarious of course swifts lackeys will leave their ignorant child projection comments.

​​@@preethi101Yea because she deserves it wtf are you talking about clearly you have been living under a rock.

Yes

Yeah this sketch is… yikes.

I think she actually is just being mean and petty. And it shows how she lacks any interpretation skill or didn't even bother to read the lyrics of the song.

Let's all cry for the billionaire who refuses to use her funds to innovate.

@@GormezzzPetty is petty

@@GormezzzI don’t think is about “the billionaire”, but about how we perceive Anna. She has always been very thoughtful and not judgmental but rather someone who looks to think in a more holistic way. So it kinda disappoints 😅

@@clearseas2657 Taylor is petty

It's moreso poking fun at her white feminism/white saviorism tendencies while acknowledging her intentions are ultimately good, and that the vision we had for the future (a congress with diversity) has still not been achieved

@@AnnaAkana dude get over yourself

@@AnnaAkana you mean the future where people still see people as colors and then define them as colors and then post publicly about how people are colors? I'm all for diversity, but specifically discriminating (meaning differentiating) people by the pigment shade of their skin is not the future many of us desire. I'd really love to live in a future where everyone has "mixed" so much that attempting to define or label people by skin color, that differentiating and discriminating and categorizing people by misinterpreting and associating a physical aspect with a metaphysical concept can no longer be accomplished. I also recognize that others will perceive me as having the privilege of making these statements. It's true. But continuing to call out people for their skin color isn't going to lead any of us to the future we hoped for. Honestly that line about Congress being diverse had me questioning in my head "is Congress that diverse? Does she actually believe that?" I still love you Anna. But I'm always going to give it to you real. 🫂

@@AnnaAkana Taylor literally has black dancers in Eras Tour, not only white dancers. She collabs with black singers like Ice Spice, Kendrick Lamaar, Future, she is friends with Ice Spice, Zoe Kravitz, Selena Gomez, Gigi Hadid (who is actually Palestinian), she hangs out with her long term back vocal singer Melanie Nyema who is black, and she is also supporting Olivia Rodrigo who is like daughter to her, and you know that Olivia is half Filipina. She also supported Beyonce on her concert film premiere. So it doesn't mean Taylor is racist or has white privileges. And you don't poke fun, you're just being misogynistic and pretty mean. Insulting and trying to make another more successful woman lower than you is so wrong and horrible. You're just jealous that Eras Tour make billions of dollars more than your comedy shows with jokes that I don't see as funny. Just stop being so fake as a "fan" and admit you're a hater. And yes, she is a billionaire, but guys, don't act like having billions of dollars is so wrong and evil. Like, rich is evil. Who is so envious of her finances just wants to have a lot of money like Taylor does. I'm envious of Taylor sometimes in a good way too, but I don't hate on her being rich, I just wish I had a lot of money just like Taylor.

She doesn't n quite disappointing that she's mocking another woman

​@@spaceDust97being a woman doesn't make you immune to jokes on the Internet lol y'all are taking this waaaay too seriously

​@@BeesRecipeswhen you have almost 3 MILLION followers and you use your platform to belittle a successful woman that's just living her life and making music I think that should be taken seriously. I'm very disappointed,

@@priiifrg She's living 1,100 lives, according to her carbon footprint.

@@priiifrg Taylor Swift is a billionaire, we SHOULD be making fun of them. They're literally the worst people, regardless of what their public mask may show you.

she probably would lose sleep over this if she saw it, lol. that woman is as fragile as they come. but that isn't our problem. we can't put her ego before our need to criticize.

Terrible take. Even ignoring the fact that Emily Dickinson was an extremely private person, she would also run circles around Swift with brilliant poetry.

LMAO sure Jan

@@sansmojo acknowledging taylor's brilliance doesn't take away from dickinson's brilliance

Not really. The song MENTIONS the 1830s but that’s not what it’s about

mocking shallow white feminism is not misogynistic.

Y'all are taking this waaaay too personally

Successful women who want to enjoy the perks but not take responsibility for anything? Successful women who always want to be a victim in every scenario? Sure lol

dont let the door hit you on the way out

or maybe you could donate to someone's gofundme or something instead of trying to police the behavior of youtubers. you getting to feel superior to anna is not helping the people in palestine. i mean, neither is me responding to ur comment, but you seem like a prick so i thought id put u in your place.
