Elon Musk and Taylor Swift have at least one thing in common—devoted fans.

However, Musk was recently outclassed—on his own platform even—when he made the mistake of making a disparaging tweet about Swift.

He reposted a side-by-side image referring to Swift as "Napolean Dynamite in drag," agreeing with the sentiment.

He claimed to be a "TS" fan, but he soon found out he had no idea what it was like to be a real Swiftie.

Musk's tweet has since been deleted.

A damning fact when it's showing Musk was forced to delete a tweet on the social media platform that he owns.

The immediate responses to his tweet were very defensive.



Swifties reminded Musk and the world it doesn't help to insult someone beloved by people who have survived middle school social politics.

They went straight after him.



The moral of the story here?

Don't insult Taylor Swift unless you're willing to face the full wrath of the Swifties.


Swift's Eras Tour continues until early August.

GOP Rep. Ousted From Chairmanship By Trump Calls Out Colleagues For Russian Propaganda In Resurfaced Clip

Speaking to anchor Jake Tapper on CNN last April, Ohio Republican Mike Turner said that Russian propaganda had "infected" the GOP in a clip that has resurfaced after President-elect Donald Trump had him ousted as House Intelligence Committee chair.

At the time, Turner made it clear that his fellow Republicans were parroting Russian propaganda about the war in Ukraine and its relationship with NATO members. That claim came after House Foreign Affairs Committee chair Michael McCaul, who said he thinks "Russian propaganda has made its way into the United States, unfortunately, and it’s infected a good chunk of my party’s base."
