    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?
