   So it seems people are mad at Taylor Swift because her newest boyfriend brags about all the hardcore racist (but only racist!) porn he watches. In being mad about this, everyone is pointing out the issues with pornography that radfems are always criticized for. But apparently it's ok because it's all directed towards this specific website that focuses on the rape and torture of black women specifically and Taylor's boyfriend is *gasp* white.
   
   Honestly, I'm confused about how the minds of all these people work. The mental gymnastics here should qualify them all as Olympians.
   
   What happened to "sex work is work"? Would this website suddenly be ok if the women were white or if the viewer was black? 🧐

     @GalacticTurtle Well... Miss pink toes sure knows how to pick them. I can't wait for her newest surgery shit pop song that covers this breakup.
     
     🎵 "It was never meant to be, he choose porn over me!" 🎵
     
     🤣 I am sure it will be the top of the charts. All her songs sound the same and her fans are just embarrassing. Seriously these fans are the reason ticketmasters sucks now because these STANS are willing to pay big bucks for tickets. They basically encouraged this awful corrupt markets to flourish instead of boycotting these asshole scalpers.
     
     
     I said what I said.

     @Aflowernamedyou @GalacticTurtle I miss the days when scalping was illegal. You know, when you’d scalp on the street corner and be arrested? Our government is such a joke.

     @ChasingWaterfalls @GalacticTurtle This shit should be illegal. I wish the Stans would grow a backbone and say "NO!" Let the scalpers flounder.
     
     God they basically ruined the ticket economy, and since ticketmaster is monopoly, we're all screwed.

     @Aflowernamedyou @ChasingWaterfalls I wouldn't say all this started with Taylor Swift, though her tour certainly brought the issue back into the spotlight. A few bands have spoken up against LiveNation in the past. One as a result is banned from all their venues... and they've cannibalised most notable venues in every town in the US. Now LiveNation owns the scalping sites. It's really quite spectacular. They own primary sales, secondary sales, the venues, the booking agents, the tour management, and even a lot of the artists. It's a monopoly that many in the music business have wanted broken up since the merger with TicketMaster.
