“interpersonal interactions areinformed by politics is the way to read it. not "neutron stars are liberal"”
Yeah I can’t tell if these people are being purposefully obtuse or if they’re actually that fucking stupid.
Of course you shitting your pants in the morning isn’t a political statement you fuckin loon, but every interaction you have in your life is based on the current political climate. The money you bring home from your check this week is political, because the amount you have to dig in to pay for rent and healthcare is political. And it goes on and on and on

If "the personal is political" just means that current political policies and culture have a causal impact on every important aspect of your personal life, then sure, that's obviously true. But that's different from saying that all of our personal decisions express loyalty to some political party. Like sure, current policy affects whether I can get married, and what consequences marriage may have. But that doesn't mean that in choosing to get married, I am thereby being pro republican or pro democrat.
The conversation was originally about whether Taylor's lyrics, which express her personal decisions and feelings, should be understood as also expressing pro republican attitudes. I and others have been skeptical of that. Someone replied with the "personal is political" comment, seemingly to lend support to the political interpretation. But if that slogan is just about the causal impact of policy/culture on our lives, then invoking it was irrelevant. Nobody is denying that Taylor's life is affected by politics. The contentious issue was whether she was expressing pro republican messaging.

I think I see what's tripping you up in interpreting my point.
I'm not saying that because our personal decisions sometimes do not express party affiliation, it is therefore false that the personal is political. I'm granting the truth of the slogan that the personal is political. I'm just saying that when interpreted in such a way that its truth can be granted, it becomes irrelevant to the Taylor debate we were actually having.

My original comment about politics was regarding all the dumb fuck conservatives thinking she’s “one of theirs” now which is obviously ridiculous
Now clearly, I don’t like this album and I really don’t give a fuck about Taylor’s affiliation in the grand scheme of things, it has literally zero effect on me.
Now with her hanging around MAGA people or whatever… I don’t know anything about any of that I just think the idea that since she’s gotten engaged or whatever that she should now go hard right and become all about “traditional values” or whatever is completely idiotic
