Pop sensation Taylor Swift encourages young individuals to participate in voting. Her boyfriend, Travis Kelce, who plays as a tight end for the Kansas City Chiefs, urges individuals to receive the COVID-19 vaccine. In a typical country, these small actions to encourage civic duty may not receive much attention. However, these are not typical circumstances, and the United States is not an average nation. The individuals leaning towards authoritarianism believe that Swift and Kelce are the new Colin Kaepernick, considered to be the disruptors of football in their pursuit of being “woke.” Similar to Kaepernick, who was forced out of the NFL for protesting injustices against the Black community, this influential couple is also vulnerable to criticism from those who are always looking for something to be upset about. However, they are not discussing defunding the police or advocating for racial equity through any means necessary, unlike the ex-quarterback. They simply wish for individuals to participate in voting and receive the COVID-19 vaccine.
