What appeared to be a simple boy-meets-girl scenario has devolved into a twisted plot worthy of John Grisham.
According to the still-developing story, mega-pop star Taylor Swift has a side gig working for the Pentagon to spread misinformation about shadowy government doings.
Swift’s budding relationship with Travis Kelce of the Kansas City Chiefs is no coincidence, the conspiratorialists allege, but carefully planned to promote President Joe Biden’s re-election campaign.
“I wonder who’s going to win the Super Bowl next month,” mused Vivek Ramaswamy on X, hinting it’s being rigged to advance a liberal agenda. “And I wonder if there’s a major presidential endorsement coming from an artificially culturally propped-up couple this fall. … Let’s see how it ages over the next 8 months.”
Ramaswamy recently dropped out of the race for the Republican presidential nomination.
Rogan O’Handley, another far-right influencer, also posted on X that if the Chiefs won the Super Bowl an apocalypse would follow.
“You MUST defeat the Chiefs,” O’Handley wrote, addressing the San Francisco 49ers. “If you don’t, Mr. Pfizer (Kelce) and his girlfriend are going to tour the country as ‘world champions.’”
O’Handley then predicted World War III would follow and “millions will die. The fate of the free world rests upon your shoulders.”
Wow.
For the Chiefs to be credited as such game-changers — you can’t buy publicity like that.
Pour it on, they say.
Swift is no stranger to outrageous attacks.
Last week, artificially crafted pornographic images of Swift flooded social media platforms. The traffic was so high that X temporarily suspended the accounts.
The perpetrators used artificial intelligence to generate the images in an effort to discredit Swift. Known as “deep fakes,” the ability to spread lies like wildfire is truly troubling to not only individuals but also institutions.
The far right is grasping at straws to discredit Swift and Kelce.
