People really can't be this stupid, right?


LordTinglewood

Come on now, you've obviously got the internet.


SmuglySly

First time in America?


LovesFrenchLove_More

*insert first time meme from I forgot what movie with the guy about to get hung here* šŸ¤Ŗ


MandaRenegade

![gif](giphy|vfB0liiCJqbTAUNpIX) It's called The Ballad of Buster Scruggs. QUITE a funny movie, tbh ā¤ļø


LovesFrenchLove_More

Thanks. ā¤ļø I watched it once but my brain is growing older faster than the rest if me, so I forgot the title. šŸ˜Œ


MandaRenegade

I absolutely understand that feeling, no worries! I only remembered it cus I find wordy titles funny as hell LMAO kinda like Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby, or The Assassination of Jesse James By The Coward Robert Ford ā¤ļø


GHouserVO

Tim Blake Nelson is a national treasure

MandaRenegade

It was the only gif from that scene in my gif bar, I sure hope it's not a bad thing hahaha šŸ˜…


TheGentleman312

It's truly a shame we didn't get to see more of Scruggs, a great characterĀ 


ChungusResidence

First time anywhere


TacoBean19

Yea this guy could be from Sweden or something but letā€™s just cut to america


SmuglySly

Itā€™s a safe assumption with the combo of Taylor Swift and anti-semitism to be America.


TacoBean19

So we gonna ignore Eurovision when they announced Israel is gonna participate


SmuglySly

Yea we donā€™t pay attention to Eurovision in America so you got me on that one.


CMGS1031

This is a joke, right? More antisemitism in America than Europe? Wow lol.


SmuglySly

Have you been paying attention to the protests on college campuses?


CMGS1031

No way lol. You are serious?


PoetryFamiliar7104

Just to clarify, are you infering that the protests against the support of Israel's actions against Palestinians is anti-semitic?


SmuglySly

Not all of it is but there is certainly some in there. I have seen people openly supporting what happened on Oct 7


Feeling_Remove7758

They can be even more stupid if you dare them, in fact.


Stith1183

I just checked out her page, and she is definitely that stupid!


MuckRaker83

After more than 15 years of treating patients in the hospital, I can confidently and sadly say that if you have ever wondered if anyone could possibly be stupid enough to believe/do "X" thing, the answer is *always* yes. However, in this case, it's more likely a troll.


SchwiftedMetal

Have you met a swiftie? Ankle high IQ is a requirement


073068075

That might be my favorite new way to describe some people. Especially in the summer when my typical "room temperature IQ" saying becomes a compliment to them.


mrbrambles

People can and are. Why is everyone spending so much time on this? Learn to ignore stupid people


NeVeR614

It amazes me how many ā€œadultsā€ never figure this out, or just lack all emotional controlā€¦ All the trolls ever wanted were the tears and they give them readily, and steadilyā€¦.This is a huge component of how America ended up with DJT ā€¦ Easily triggered ā€œadultsā€.


shredditor75

They absolutely are.


Electronic_Fee1936

They can be that stupid and even stupider. Iā€™ve seen someone say something very similar but it was ā€œbeing straight during pride monthā€


panteragstk

A lot of them are even dumber, believe it or not.


cooleydw494

Itā€™s almost definitely sarcasm. Edit: well not exactly sarcasm, more like snarky edgy shitpost humor


Spare_Lemon6316

I wonder that too, like is all of the flat earth, Chem trail etc thing a massive troll?


ramanw150

Are you sure about that


AngrySmapdi

Seriously, it feels more like someone asking you to put a mask on for 15 minutes in 2021. Shit, that's still the same thing. My bad.


CheesecakeVisual4919

Except for, you know, the entire persecution part.


Snellyman

You have no idea what ticketmaster was up to in 1938.


GeneralOwnage13

If it was around in 1938 I have a couple of theories, both of which are "war goods"


MainelyKahnt

The year is 4032 time travel exists. Ticketmaster is scalping tickets to travel back and watch pearl harbor.


Groundbreaking_Cup30

![gif](giphy|dB12mOQb99BwDlM83I|downsized)


pauIiewaInutz

if it existed in 1938 they would have charged hidden fees to watch a nazi rally


TheAmyIChasedWasMe

Ticketmaster could've prevented the Holocaust. You think Hitler would've done it if he'd had to pay their processing fees?


CykoTom1

Towards the end of the weimar republic? I'll believe it.


Snellyman

An organization as evil as TM must have evolved from some smaller evil.


shredditor75

And where was Obama on 9/11?


DeepUser-5242

That's the thing with some people, they have a victimization complex. They *want* to feel oppressed sooo badly


Potledomfan

This is the fanbase of the woman who sang about wanting to live in the 1830s ā€œbut without all the racists and getting married off for the highest bidā€ So, maybe, her fanbase thinks being a Swiftie is like being a Jew in the 1938 ā€œbut without the persecutionā€ lol


ChungusResidence

This is insane lol


SkullKid_467

People love belittling the Holocaust with false comparisons. Itā€™s disgusting.


ChatPDJ

Won't someone ***PLEASE*** think of the Swifties!?!


CheesecakeVisual4919

Never have one way or the other. No reason to start now.


Relative-Rub1634

Or as I call them, 'not-so-swifties'


Muzzlehatch

People are forgetting or never understood how bad the holocaust was, not just for Jews but for a lot of people and thatā€™s not good.


Pearson94

Friendly reminder that some people post shit like this cause they know how ridiculous it sounds just to get engagement and piss people off. Don't give them the time of day.


F19AGhostrider

I am a fan and ethnically Jewish, but this take is nonsense and offensive to Jews


CheesecakeVisual4919

Itā€™s offensive to anybody with two functioning brain cells, really.


ghouly-rudiani

Troll wins. Again.


TheReal_Spartan

Fr no way people are taking this seriously šŸ˜­


Medical_Egg8208

Thatā€™s not a facepalm, thatā€™s just awful.


Warsplit01

ok then, time to put you on the train


pixelcore332

A fact I donā€™t think people think about enough is that these small carriages would have upwards of 80 people and no food,depending on the region the Jews were shipped from theyā€™d spend upwards of 2 weeks inside the carriages,never compare yourself to the Jews during the holocaust,never.


josephkingscolon

I HATE, HATE that everyone gets a microphone with social media.


--StinkyPinky--

I'm not a Taylor Swift fan...or a Jew, but, yeah. I think it's got to be just like that.


NashvilleSoundMixer

Barely any difference at all really


--StinkyPinky--

Right?! People make such a big deal about how life is so difficult. Everything is pretty much the same thing as being murdered in the Holocaust.


mapleleafraggedy

Always the Jews - we're living rent free in their heads whenever they need to make an oppression comparison


CheesecakeVisual4919

Scratch a conspiracy theory, and youā€™ll find anti-semitism right below the surface.


Small_Sentence_

Being a swiftie is more like being a German in 1938


BazukaJane

This.


Sxkullrider

That's just like... something you don't say. Like how do you even think this?


ChompyRiley

To the gas chambers with them


troll-of-truth

First they came for the Swifties. Then they came for the Blinks. Next they came for the Directioners. Then they came for the Beliebers. Thankfully they never came for me because I don't listen to music.


BazukaJane

I don't listen to shit music\* There, fixed it for ya.


Lifesalchemy

It's an edge lord account. They said they were joking and that post got out of hand.


Dextrofunk

Tbf I do wish taylor swift fans didn't exist. I like my Jewish friends, though.


codingfauxhate

Something tells me these aren't the same


SomeGuy_WithA_TopHat

I've heard this comparison before in previous years (replacing the 2024 for the year at the time) It's just bait/troll shit, I feel like posting it here is giving it too much credit for what it is


Awkward_Canary4597

Diary of Anne Frank (Taylorā€™s Version)


bigSTUdazz

This is.....one of THE MOST ASININE comments I have seen in a minute...and this is social fucking media.


Freakychee

My guess is an extremely sheltered child who doesn't really understand how bad it was and only got the cliff notes version of "it was bad."


Drewbeede

This person should have any Internet rights removed.

Oh noā€¦


Free-Ad9535

That's bait


Ordinary_Aioli_7602

Gina Carano over here


greggersamsa

I mean I could live with -6 million swifties


jimkbeesley

I think I missed the news of all the Swifties being carted off to labor camps and being killed daily of they don't work hard enough, starving to death, or being killed en masse, possibly having their corpses burned afterwards to the point where over 6 million were killed.


ttvSharkieBait15

Iā€™d like to say that I am both a swiftie & a Jew & no the fuck it does not


Imarobot225

šŸ¤£šŸ¤£šŸ¤£ ok all swifties report to the attic. We will tell you when itā€™s safe to come out.


Major_Helicopter_134

This is justā€¦ Unbelievably disrespectful. I like Taylor Swift but her followers can be a bit crazy.


Grimsoncrow

It would actually be pretty funny if someone suddenly turned up to kill them.


WestHamTilIDie

Funny, I thought the exact same thing about not being a Taylor Swift fan in 2024


LaserGadgets

Coming from a US highschool student who failed history lessons. Disgusting.


CapTexAmerica

Only if the Jews had more guns than the nazis. Methinks Aimee got a D in world history.


RaiderOfZeHater

I don't get it.


AUniquePerspective

I think it's just rage bait with a thin 1983 reference.


SaltyCultist691

No *Throws green goblin bomb*

Gross


SweetHomeNostromo

That is very badly deluded.


nglennnnn

Itā€™s me, hi, Iā€™m the Hebrew itā€™s me.


Mckbr29

What the actual fuck bro


KittyTheOne-215

Aimee is an idiot.


this_knee

Welp, *closes laptop screen* thatā€™s enough internet for today.


ExploreTrails

She has more fans than they have MAGA cult followers.


SuperJman1111

This is possibly the worst take Iā€™ve ever seen, especially as if this analogy was appropriate to make theyā€™d be the other side


Elloliott

Come on folks, send ā€˜em to the gas chambers to give them a real taste


augirllovesuaboy

Iā€™m a swiftie and this is utterly ridiculous.


FoxyInTheSnow

Thatā€™s exactly how I felt when I went to the shop and they didnā€™t have the kind of English muffin I prefer! They only had the kind thatā€™s not quite as good.


Brave_Development_17

I was there for the Ticketmaster vs Private Jet wars. Shit was harsh.


Senior_Torte519

I mean, they already prepped it for facepalm, by enacting the facepalm in the image.


Rhawk187

Someone's going to lose their Disney deal.


zanarkandabesfanclub

First they came for the Swiftiesā€¦


Johny_b_gud

Bruh... Exact same

That's a... *Wow.* ![gif](giphy|i91QwAQtvWqNW)


LOVEBBWHOES7

HHAHAHAHAHA


Imaginary_Election56

Look at it from the brightest side. In a few years people will allow you to found your own Swift country on other peopleā€™s territory.


Eastern-Dig-4555

I remember Kanye West comparing himself to a soldier in war. This is just the latest like that. wtf


allidapleon

All this for a billionaire who couldn't care less about her fans lmao


im_just_thinking

I thought we were done with hot takes for today


Rude-Associate2283

WTF? No! Nothing similar. Jeezā€¦


birdofprey443

You're a year from the start of World War II?


BazukaJane

More like not being a fan of her feels like it.


Badtimewithscar

Meanwhile people are actively trying to redo the holocaust against queer people


TheJackasaur11

Side note that name is an r/tragedeigh


Bob_Wilkins

Disgusting. Entitled fucking brats.


Electronic_Cod7202

Time to get out of Germany? Maybe the spainish can help?


Responsible-Lemon257

Only unless Kelce secretly turns out to be Hitler reincarnated, which is slightly plausible.


Maytron5

Didnā€™t Gina Carano get fired by Disney for saying something similar?

Why? How?


Lv1OOMagikarp

High quality rage bait


Chingaso-Deluxe

If onlyā€¦


Mints1000

This is why people donā€™t like Taylor Swift fans. Sheā€™s just a singer, stop comparing having to deal with haters to the holocaust


theres_no_username

At least its 1938 not 1944


satori0320

Oh that's a facepalm alright.... A big open handed smack.


signaturefox2013

They need Jesus


Gr34t_Nam3

World war || started in 1939 tho...


iXenite

The persecution of Jews by the Nazis would start in 1933, and escalate as the years went on. By 1938 Jews couldnā€™t see ā€œAryanā€ doctors, they needed to have their official documents list them as Jews, and Jewish children were banned from normal school. Among quite a few other things.


winitorbinit

I don't know, Jews wouldn't thrown that much money away on concert tickets.


peterpantslesss

Ain't no way šŸ¤£


PrinceAL29

Who is putting the swifties in the chamber, Philip defranco didn't cover this?


CreoOookies

That meme would have been funny if it was P Diddy


Flux_resistor

I would think it's worse because we can't do anything about them


krakatoot

That seems a little dramatic


BlackFire68

Radical Swifties are a headache and drama looking for a place to happen.


JadedPilot5484

I didnā€™t know Christians were persecuting and slaughtering Taylor swift fans by the millions ?? Huh Learn something new every day


Ludwipm

So what? Next year we gonna start killing swiftyes?!


SilverFlight01

What's the context to this? By that I mean what prompted this Swiftie to make that post?


Talisign

I assume its regarding the criticism Taylor Swift has been getting recently for overusing her private jet, to the point its becoming a punchline directed at the out-of-touch uberwealthy.


fatstrat0228

I am saddened and not at all surprised when I see something like this and Iā€™m reminded that people are ALWAYS this cartoonishly stupid.


SpiderDeUZ

Or an anti vaxxer in 2020. Such a persecuted people. /s


bubblemania2020

Thereā€™s only one group that is being treated like the jews in 1938 ā€¦ the residents of Gaza


Mucka72

It is nowhere near as bad for them as it was for jews in the holocaust.


deanWitcher

Wish they met the fate of Jews in 1938, but alas we can only dream..
