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.
I don’t want this community to have celebrity news in it
It’s science news that happens to involve a celebrity.
It’s celebrity news regarding a known white supremacist, her fanbase is notoriously disgusting and racist and often attacks people of color.
This community doesn’t need that kind of garbage, there’s plenty of it on reddit
The kind of garbage this community doesn’t need are your blatant lies.

Thank goodness for the multiple instances.
