The outspoken 26-year-old thinks that Taylor Swift’s lack of political stance in 2016 basically helped elect Donald Trump. Because if you have a platform, you should dang well use it.

Chatting with Vogue, she elaborated. “For me, it’s really important to elevate voices and causes… I definitely think that there are certain celebrities who really could offer more help… and don’t,” Kirke continued. “Like Taylor f—g Swift, who may as well have voted for Trump, as far as I’m concerned, by not doing anything.”

Oooh Swift. Ya burnt!

The youngest Kirke definitely has a point, but to be fair, the 27-year-old pop star usually only cares about a cause if it benefits her professionally. Like feminism, for example. Feminism helps Taylor Swift sell records, but voicing support for Black Lives Matter or Planned Parenthood probably wouldn’t, ya dig? Why even bother!?

So yeah, I’m firmly #TeamLola on this one.
