see i genuinely love taylor swift's works but ohmygod how can you be an advocate of feminism and yet you dont talk about the struggles of the Palestine crisis and the assault of Palestinian and Arab women?

Your feminism has to be too whitewashed to be literally so oblivious to the sufferings of people after having such a HUGE fanbase and still not uttering a single word about the ongoing genocide.

and people who say that she has a choice to not speak about it and that i am no one to decide what a global popstar does, that's exactly where privilege plays a role.

we have the PRIVILEGE to NOT speak. we have the CHOICE to NOT speak. Palestinians don't even have that choice. They HAVE to resist to exist. and that is why it is necessary for the people who have the privilege of having a choice, to choose to speak up for the ones who don't have the same privilege.

and it's not just her, but several other people who have the privilege to speak up and create awareness. like please. use your privilege wisely at least.

#i really like taylor but this is just so hypocritical of her to call herself a feminist and not talk about the crisis of Palestinian women #like just a mention of 'ceasefire' would literally influence so many people and create awareness #and no im not going to tolerate the argument of mental health like the selena gomez one because again we have the CHOICE to shut off #from these issues but Palestinians dont have either the choice or privilege #i dont care who you are if you have the privilege use your privilege wisely #palestine #free palestine #to be free.#vaseline°
