Billionaire Taylor Swift, whose career was launched with the help of her rich banker father, sung “fuck the patriarchy!” at at her concert, leaving some to wonder how it made dads who had spent exorbitant amounts on tickets for their daughters feel.
The line is taken from the extended version of Swift’s All Too Well track, which was re-released in 2021 with the “fuck the patriarchy!” line added to the lyrics.
It was sung with gusto at one of Swift’s recent ‘Eras’ tour concerts, which the media has been treating with such gushing adoration akin to if Jesus Christ himself was touring the world.
Some accused the billionaire of being “out of touch,” while another wondered aloud, “Just thinking of all those dads who scrimped and saved to get overpriced tickets from touts for their teenage daughters—not to mention the hotel, travel costs, stupid outfits etc—many of them actually going with their kids and sitting through the bloody thing.”
“Then having to hear this bollocks from someone definitely old enough to know better.”
“Who does she think pays for all those girls to go to her concert?” asked another respondent.
