Are you being brainwashed by Taylor Swift?

Approximately twenty percent of Americans believe Taylor Swift is being weaponized by the government for political ends. This is absurd, but actually kind of understandable given the American government’s long history of using culture to influence minds. But what if, when we talk about propaganda, we focus on the wrong thing? That is to say, what if propaganda is even more insidious than some kind of Pentagon-sponsored brainwashing, and what if Taylor Swift can explain how? Let’s find out in this video How Taylor Swift Explains American Propaganda.

  1. Sprinklein that COPAGANDA!😂😂😂

  2. You show a scene from Hail, Ceasar! and then reference Adorno… You've done Uncle Herbie wrong 😂

  3. Please stop taking money from BetterHelp. I like you all too much.

    But this was thoughtful. Thank you

  4. Rewriting Animal Farm to be anti-communist? Um, have you read the original book?

  5. I think forming political opinions based on popular culture puts a glaring spotlight on the intelligence of the average voter.

  6. This video is brought to you by genocide (fucking use other sponsors, this is bullshit)

  7. Taylor Swift is nothing but cringe. She's so fake it's not even funny. She might even be worse than Madonna.

  8. Taylor was born with a silver spoon and now that she has power she stays silent and complicit in the system that drains the working class and benefits corporations, she got to the top being vague and staying silent.

  9. Wisecrack, I see the comment echoed here already, but I'll emphasize; please stop using Betterhelp as a sponsor, it hurts your credibility.

  10. stop supporting betterhelp or I'll stop watching your videos

  11. Not gonna memtion the Rambo 3 dedication to "the brave Mujaheddin fighters [of Afghanistan]?"

  12. I've never seen this through a neoliberal lens! this is Wisecrack at its best. providing a nudge in a new direction and food for thought!

  13. Why do the betterhelp comments keep getting deleted?

  14. I see a lot of comments about BetterHelp and what they do…
    Anyone care to educate me? What did they do/are doing?

  15. Lovely video, and it’s great to see Helen back. She should join one of the live streams some day. I’m curious what her 666 voice would be like

  16. Promoting Betterhelp? Unsubbed

  17. She's a friend to the kittens so I can't say anything bad about Tay

  18. What makes Taylor an enigma is that her fanbase is just as powerful as Trump’s fanbase and that’s saying something.

    If she told Biden to stop supporting Israel so blindly he would ACTUALLY consider doing something.

  19. While I understand her appeal with her fans, I never related to her as she feels too old to sing about middle-school drama.
    As for those people who think she is a psyops, those people are so desperate for the touch of grass, that to them, EVERYTHING is a psyops… I mean: EVERYTHING!!

  20. Pathetic incels have been pooping their pants with joy ever since their god-king Trump gave them permission to hate Taylor Swift.

  21. Did anyone else click on this video thinking, “wow, this is the first properly produced video essay critically reviewing Taylor’s complicity with the capitalist system I’ve yet seen” only to be disappointed by the first few minutes? No hating on Taylor here, I’m in love with her talent and skill, just believe her work deserves more serious criticism and analysis, sad to see another ideological defense instead 😢

  22. T-Swift is the most calculated pop entertainer in history and I do mean that as both an compliment and a slam… I've never seen an artist who is so viciously pro-business, especially her own and while that's admirable from a personal power standpoint it's also sickening when it leads to an eerie Cult of Personality that rivals T-Rump at this point… People paying thousands to see her in stadium with 70,000 people to me seems insane. As much as I love music I can't think of an artist dead or alive worth that kind of cash especially one so meh… $100? Sure why not… $1000? AYFKM?

  23. Hollywood won't turn you Red. Being homeless, jobless and without health care will…

  24. Glad you touched on why nobody should ever watch cop shows

  25. I wonder if those 20% are hardcore MAGA?
