They are making it clear: announce your support for Harris, get harassed.
Its always “shut up and dribble” when someone disagrees with you.
“Shut up and dribble” says some random plumber from Gary Indiana, as if he’s somehow more qualified to discuss politics.
They don’t want you to vote unless you support their candidate. They don’t want you to speak unless it’s hate speech or you support their candidate. They don’t want you to exist unless you exist the way they want you to exist. It’s Stepford Wives meets The Handmaid’s Tale.
Clark on her own personal account likes a post on Twitter.
MAGA: Keep politics out of sports!
Chief’s Kicker (Butker): Makes a misogynist and politically charged speech at a Christian college graduation.
MAGA: Way to tell them like it is! Keep it up.
Total tangent here, but I have a lot of cognitive dissonance around Butker. I mean I call him Butt Kicker. He’s an amazing athlete but has gross political ideas and power.
What’s dumber, I was upset to hear Brittany Mahomes passively endorsed Project 2025. I wasn’t terribly surprised that’s her stance, but seeing her confirm it and quickly backtrack with petty bullshit just. Ugh. Meanwhile, our other star players Kelce and Mahomes are keeping their mouths shut as Swift is taking heat. Idfk. Just a bunch of drama that makes me feel like I’m back in high school, but the stakes are much, much higher.
I know Elon Musk is, but are so many Republicans really this despicable? Or is it Russian bots trying to make it look like it?
That Hillary Clinton deplorables comment? Most truthful thing she’s ever said in her life.
And then they leaned into hard. Like they all thought “Well the cat’s out of the bag”
Yes, they really are this despicable. Republicans who aren’t despicable are not welcome in the party. You’re either on the Trump train or you’re dead to them, the Trump cultists have fully taken over the GOP.
Republicans absolutely are this despicable.
I’m sorry, but let’s be realistic… if she came out in support of trump she would get a lot of negative responses also. We’re a pretty divided country.
True but I feel like it would be mostly civil criticism from the left rather than the threats you see on the right. Both negative feedback sure but not of the same intensity.
That’s the key difference here

Republican babies pissing themselves
She just told them she’s not their racist. Fuck those people for always pitting her against her colleagues of color, she never asked for that. Keep playing ball girl.
I generally feel bad for Caitlin Clark in the amount of complete bullshit this woman has had to endure this year.
Hey, she got me watching WNBA content and I don’t even watch the NBA. Mostly I just get intrigued by players people dislike for no reason, like Lamar Jackson in the NFL. Dude has won 2 MVPs and carries the Ravens offense but people just move the goal posts on him every year.
lol social media
Seriously, this is just all the people that never watched women’s sports anyways lol
They are angry over a “like”… They assume she liked it because of Kamala but really she is only stating she liked the message about getting out to vote. She isn’t endorsing anyone. https://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/wnba/2024/09/11/caitlin-clark-taylor-swift-kamala-harris-president-endorsement/75182367007/
That’s disappointing.
IMO that’s fair, a like is just a like, don’t over analyze it.
Agreed. The situation is fraught with peril. Being famous, being an athlete, getting sponsorships, Clark and Swift are not at all in the same position in terms of fame and financial security. I like to see people with principles stand up for what they believe regardless of the consequences, but I understand why most don’t. I’ve had second thoughts about putting up lawn signs for fear of becoming a target of political violence, and I’m nobody.
Unpopular opinion: She would also be harassed if she had endorsed Trump.
EDIT: I’ll admit, I got curious about what kind of comments a celeb gets on social media after endorsing Trump. Some people have said that they deserve the harassment, which is at least honest. To be totally clear, I think that Trump is uniquely evil in the modern history of America. He is a grifter and I don’t see how anyone could support him or his policies. He is a racist, chauvinist, likely rapist, dangerous for our economy, physical safety, and basic rights.
My only point is that maybe we shouldn’t be so quick to throw stones. Taking a political stand is risky for any celebrity, and we should be respectful of people when they do. Also, vote early.
Well, you tell me: Is this harassment?
She the first one they would throw off the wall #handmaidstale
I can’t with you. Next tatoo of that big forehead, should be “Pendeja”!
PLEASE DO NOT GET YOUR POLITICAL ADVICE FROM A WOMAN OF HER KIND!
🤡🙃🤡🙃🤡
Stay over there with “your people”!
You’re White wash!
FOR SURE SHE AINT BLACK
SHUT UP, B****!
No wonder Kanye dated you. 🤢🤮
Joseline was right. #Disgusting.
You are frugly.
Says the girl who has a Black mom and white dad that only rides black 🍆 🤦🏾♀️🤷🏽♀️ Did you let Trump eat you up?
🗑️🗑️🗑️🗑️🗑️🗑️
🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮
Watching unedited videos of you, I’m wondering when did your face become so saggy??
Straight up drag man.
airhead
By those fake big teeth
You look like you have BV.
😂😂😂😂This heaux done lost her small mind
I mean I guess…he must hv really grabbed her by the 🐈!!!🤷🏽♀️😹😹
You’re 40 years old. Lay off the filters and you only on this level cause you slept with a football size team of celebrities
This is what happens when rappers get airheads off the pole and empower them.
your not to bright are you?
Burnt out shawty
Also, WOW, corporate social media is really a sad, angry garbage pile. Thank goodness for the fediverse.
Even more unpopular opinion, bigots deserve to be harassed for their bigotry.
Maxx Crosby from the Raiders recently posted a pic with Trump and I was disappointed, but moved on. I’m sure he caught some flack, but probably nowhere near as much as Clark has.
She would be looked down upon. That’s not the same thing as harassment.
She can’t be bothered by the entire WNBA and ESPN constantly being negative to her, these fake fan bigots and morons aren’t going to do anything to her.
However these people are still weird and deplorable.
Oh but they don’t care about T Swift ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Not really surprising.
Devils advocate here: If she voiced support for Trump, a lot of us here would be equally upset.
Equally upset? Doubtful. Taking to her Xitter and harassing her? Probably not.
I wouldn’t have harassed her. I wouldn’t have even tried to talk to her.
Man I don’t even reply to my family’s political bullshit on private feeds, what makes you think I’d give 2 neurons of effort calling out a practical stranger out in public?
That would require going on Instagram
I have never cared so strongly about something that I felt it was appropriate to harass someone via Twitter for their views on it.
I’ll be negatively judging them, sure, but I’m not going to flood their DMs with death threats. That’s some basement dwelling troglodyte bullshit right there.
