Fans urge Taylor Swift to take a stand on Gaza, trend #SwiftiesForPalestine

Taylor Swift recently achieved a humongous feat as she became the new member of the elite billionaire club with the success of her Eras tour. While Swifties are on cloud nine after this milestone, they have urged their favourite popstar to take a stand on Gaza as they trend #SwiftiesForPalestine on social media.

Many fans have expressed their disappointment at Swift’s silence on the issue. One of the deleted tweets that sparked the hashtag was from a fan account named @Sydelenasup, who shared a picture of the singer and songwriter holding a Palestinian flag and wrote, “Taylor Swift we need you to speak up for Palestine. You have a huge platform and millions of fans who look up to you. Please don’t let us down. #SwiftiesForPalestine”.

Another post, which urged Swift was, “Its more important than ever that we use our voices, no matter how big or small to advocate for the Palestinian cause.”

While one commented, “I love Taylor but she needs to do better. She can’t just ignore what’s happening in Palestine. It’s not political, it’s humanitarian,” another one wrote, “Taylor has always been vocal about human rights and social justice. Why is she silent now? Palestine deserves her support and solidarity.”

“Taylor please say something. Your silence is hurting us. We need you to stand with Palestine and condemn the Israeli occupation and aggression,” one user commented.

International celebs like Rihanna, Selena Gomez, Bella Hadid, Dua Lipa and Zayn Malik, have spoken out in support of Palestine and called for peace and justice.
