Kaliwa't kanang batikos ang natatanggap ngayon ni Tesla Inc. CEO Elon Musk matapos niyang pasaringan ang American pop superstar na si Taylor Swift nang magpahayag ito ng suporta sa kandidatura ni Democratic presidential aspirant na si Kamala Harris.
Nitong Miyerkules, September 11, 2024, opisyal na inendorso ni Taylor si Harris bilang susunod na pangulo ng United States.
Nangyari ito matapos niyang mapanood ang pakikipagdebate ni Harris laban sa katunggali nitong si Republican presidential aspirant at dating U.S. President Donald Trump.
Kabilang sa napagdebatehan nila ang tungkol sa mga isyu katulad ng patuloy na girian ng Israel at Gaza, ekonomiya, foreign policy, immigration, at healthcare.

Matapos sumalang sa debate, mabilis na nag-post sa Instagram si Taylor para sabihing isa siya sa maraming nanood at nag-abang sa debate sa pagitan nina Harris at Trump.
Nakatulong daw ito sa kanya para mas makilatis pa ang iluluklok niyang presidente na may paninindigan, plano, at malasakit sa mga problemang kinahaharap at kakaharapin pa ng kanilang bansa.
Ani Taylor, kalakip ang litrato niyang may hawak at kargang pusa (published as is), "Like many of you, I watched the debate tonight. If you haven’t already, now is a great time to do your research on the issues at hand and the stances these candidates take on the topics that matter to you the most.
"As a voter, I make sure to watch and read everything I can about their proposed policies and plans for this country."

Hindi rin pinalampas na pabulaanan ni Taylor ang kumakalat na litrato niya online kunsaan sinasabi raw na ang iniendorso niya ay si Trump.
Depensa ni Taylor, wala itong katotohanan. Hindi raw siya ang nasa video at pictures na maaaring gawa-gawa lang ng AI o artificial intelligence.
Pahayag ni Taylor, "Recently I was made aware that AI of ‘me’ falsely endorsing Donald Trump’s presidential run was posted to his site. It really conjured up my fears around AI, and the dangers of spreading misinformation.
"It brought me to the conclusion that I need to be very transparent about my actual plans for this election as a voter. The simplest way to combat misinformation is with the truth."
Ang totoo raw, si Harris at ang running mate nitong si Tim Walz ang natitipuhan niyang suportahan.
Sa kanila raw kasi nakita ng pop superstar ang mga hinahanap niyang katangian sa pagiging isang mabuting lider, maging ang magagandang plataporma at polisiyang nais nilang gawin.
Diin niya: "I will be casting my vote for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz in the 2024 Presidential Election.
"I’m voting for @kamalaharris because she fights for the rights and causes I believe need a warrior to champion them. I think she is a steady-handed, gifted leader and I believe we can accomplish so much more in this country if we are led by calm and not chaos.
"I was so heartened and impressed by her selection of running mate @timwalz, who has been standing up for LGBTQ+ rights, IVF, and a woman’s right to her own body for decades."
Dagdag pa niya, "I’ve done my research, and I’ve made my choice. Your research is all yours to do, and the choice is yours to make. I also want to say, especially to first time voters:
"Remember that in order to vote, you have to be registered! I also find it’s much easier to vote early.
"With love and hope, Taylor Swift Childless Cat Lady."
ELON MUSK REACTS
Kung marami sa fans ni Taylor ang natuwa sa kanyang naging desisyon, mayroon din namang kinuwestiyon kung bakit hindi si Trump ang napili niyang iendorso.
Kabilang na rito ang masugid na tagasuporta ni Trump na si Elon Musk.
Sa X (dating Twitter) nitong September 11, nag-tweet si Musk para magbigay reaksiyon sa pag-endorso ni Taylor kay Harris.
Mababasa sa kanyang post (published as is), "Fine Taylor … you win … I will give you a child and guard your cats with my life."

Matapos mag-post, agad na bumuhos ang batikos kay Musk, kunsaan marami sa netizens, partikular na ang Swifties (tawag sa fandom ni Taylor), ang nabastusan sa komento ng pimakamayamang tao sa mundo.
Tweet ng isang netizen (published as is), "Did Elon Musk just threaten to rape Taylor Swift?!?"
Saad ng isa, "Taylor Swift: I will be casting my vote for Kamala Harris Elon Musk: I will impregnate you. This is sexual harassment."
Sabi pa ng isa, "Elon responding to tonight by telling Taylor Swift he’ll impregnate her is peak weirdo and creeper behavior."
Dagdag pa ng isa, "Elon, threatening to rape someone because you disagree with her political views is inappropriate - even when the threat is made in jest."
Maging ang anak ni Musk na si Vivian Jenna Wilson ay hindi rin pinalampas ang aniya'y "sexist" at "heinous incel nonsense" na tweet ng ama.
Sa Threads nag-post si Vivian para sabihing katulad ng iba ay dismayado rin siya sa ginawa ni Musk.
Mababasa sa kanyang post (published as is): "The timing for the Taylor Swift endorsement of Kamala Harris honestly could not have been better.
"Can't wait to see the Swifties at the polls! Vote blue [blue heart emojis].
"Also, yes, I saw "the tweet". Heinous incel nonsense is in fact heinous incel nonsense. I don't really have anything to add to it, it's just abhorrent.
"That much is obvious and if you don't see how then you're part of the problem. I would just like to say to my audience members, don't let people talk to you like that.
"It's disgusting, it's belittling and incredibly sexist. You deserve better."
Samantala, habang isinusulat ang artikulong ito ay wala pang sagot o reaksiyon si Taylor sa naging tweet tungkol sa kanya ni Musk.
