Viraldice: The Internet Had the Perfect Response for This Taylor Swift Fan Who Demanded People ‘Name a Bitch Badder Than Taylor Swift’

aylor Swift has been having a banner year. After being #cancelled when Kim Kardashian outed her lies about Kanye West's "Fame" video, and being adopted as the "Aryan Barbie" of the alt-right movement, Swift has reinvented herself into a (supposedly) darker, edgier Swift.

The ploy has worked. Swift's newest musical outing, "Reputation," has spent the past three weeks at number one and is well on track to become one of the biggest albums of the year.

This may have been the motivation behind Twitter user Nutella's question, "Name a bitch badder than Taylor Swift."

And when Twitter responded, boy did it respond.

As it turns out, there are lots of bitches way badder than Taylor Swift, and some of them aren’t even human.

Like this Twitter user's answer to the query.

Her cat? Her cat can’t even really be classified as a “bitch,” because Felis catus is wildly incompatible with canis lupus familiaris (dog). They aren’t even in the same family tree, but if she feels this way, she feels this way… we guess.

Other Twitter users had more serious answers to the query. And by serious, we mean historical.

zheng shi was a sex worker in Canton who was captured & wedded to a pirate lord and so quickly proved her ability to command that she took over and at one point commanded 300+ ships with 40,000 men and was so fearsome that she forced china and britain to let her peacefully retire http://bit.ly/2ikwTHm

Umm, why didn’t we learn about her in Pirates of the Caribbean? They had all kinds of undead pirates on there, not to mention mermaids and the occasional goddess, but they didn’t see fit to include this actual goddess?

Fail.

This Twitter user highlighted a renegade, a trailblazer, an actual freaking hero.

Julie d'Aubigny was a French opera singer/swordswoman in the 1600s who killed over ten men in duels over other women and once took holy vows so she could break into a nunnery, sleep with a blonde nun, then burned the church down and escaped with herhttp://bit.ly/2jLZA0c

So she killed 10 men in duels and seduced a nun? And burned down a church, you say?

Fighting the man, taking the woman.

Legend.

Pure legend.

Some responses were stories we already knew, but were pleasantly surprised to encounter again.

Ida B Wells was born the child of slaves. She raised several of her siblings, while working as a school teacher and editing a newspaper critical of white supremacy. Survived a lynching attempt and became the most effective critic of lynching in the US. http://bit.ly/2igGChN

Lest we forget, Ida B. Wells was freaking amazing. Without her seminal work on lynching, we would not have as complete an understanding of the processes of oppression in the American South.

Wells, during her lifetime, proved that lynching was actually a method of oppressing black people rather than punishment for crimes, as it had so often been claimed. Hero.
