On its own no. If a pop star declares anything, it's just a generic tweet. But this is the main thing democrats have jumped on to humanise Kamala Harris with young voters who hate her for Palestine. As far as I've seen they don't seem to have anything else lined up after it. To me this is the stupid meme moment where a campaign begins floundering.
Their barbaric social credit score incentivising being normal, our noble credit score which arbitrarily gains or loses points every month and determines whether you're worthy of accessing housing and transportation.
The only place I've actually seen it is the DNC convention where it was sold as Blue MAGA merch. My university is around 80% liberal and I haven't seen a single mention of it. Lots of pro-Palestine tagging but no visible support for Harris or brat as a branding attempt. Like the Khive it's so inorganic and empty. "Pokemon Go to the Polls" energy right out of the gate.
They're definitely stand-out obnoxious even for Iheart.
I get ads for a few of them on Iheart podcasts. This one is Nevada-based, but I've also seen tribal casinos and generic online ones advertising gambling on apps. With this one it even has the app gamification like daily sign-in rewards.
Normally I don't give a shit what celebrities say and wouldn't post them. Here it's wider political context that interests me. Kamala's honeymoon period rested solely on not being Joe Biden and this stupid forced meme. The DNC convention, her official social media accounts, everything was brat. The absence of brat means a campaign without policies beyond "Only 99.9% Hitler can defeat 100% Hitler" and a politician with less charisma than JD Vance. The only messaging crutch they have left is limply calling republicans weird so I think this is the moment where they begin to lose steam.

The youth of today use it in the way we'd call someone a hot mess or a party girl. I don't think it has any actual cultural footprint beyond this one musician though.
Thus begins the πΈππππβ ππ½ βπβππΌβππΌββπΌπ. I wonder if Harris will be able to get another pop culture bump or if the only strategy going forward is the Joyful Nuremberg Rally. If she isn't brat, she's just the candidate who couldn't win a single state in 2020.
Is this the bookshelf of a thrice-divorced 45 year-old or a 15 year-old who wears a suit to school every day because he wants to be a businessman when he grows up?
we need to support ukraine because if russia isn't stopped from its war of territorial expansion then it will only be emboldened to invade other countries
A compromise between left and liberal urbanists. We'll have a robust mass transit system but it's everyone driving their own bus on a 20 lane superhighway.
