Taylor Swift may have inadvertently walked into a political maelstrom in China with merchandise soon to be on sale there displaying a potentially subversive message.
The singer is launching her own Taylor Swift-branded clothing line next month, on the platforms of local e-commerce giants JD.com and the Alibaba group, with t-shirts, dresses and sweatshirts featuring the politically charged date 1989.
The date – as well as being Swift’s year of birth – refers to her album and live tour of the same name, which she will perform in Shanghai in November.
Between this and her faux, white feminism being exposed this week, I don't know what to think. She obviously had market research done before selling these products in China but still went ahead with it.
There's another part to that post which you failed to include where it says that she isn't, and if the Chinese government had a problem with this they would have censored it
You guys know nothing about that incident so please shut up. No one in Mainland China actually cared about that event. (Which is kind of sad) But this is simply a coincidence that the media exaggerate to make Taylor looks bad.
I expected more of The Lord!
I don't think she's aware.
