She's literally never voiced a political opinion anywhere. Sweeney has publicly stated that she considers herself a non-political person focused on her work in the arts. In other words, the rest of the internet trying to drag her into this political crap are all being a bunch of incel jackasses that can't possibly comprehend someone just living their life and staying out of it. "How dare you not pick a side and dump all your social capital into that".

Now, she is technically a registered republican, but that doesn't really mean anything. It's actually normal for up to 10% of registered republicans to vote for the democratic candidate, and a lot of people just stick with the politics of their parents. Her parents are known MAGA supporters, but that doesn't mean she is. Hell my mom is a hardcore MAGA supporter, and I think Trump is a complete dumpster fire. In fact, Sydney avoids politics entirely probably because she's too busy working and enjoying her life. I don't agree with dragging people into politics when they seem to want nothing to do with it.

Not saying this applies to her, but also being a registered republican doesn’t necessarily mean anything. I know someone who said they change the party affiliation often so they can vote in primaries to have more influence on candidates and things like that. I don’t know how true that is but just saying I guess it’s a possibility. Also some could have registered ten years ago and just never voted or changed it, doesn’t really reflect where they are at politically at this time

I was a registered republican, and I voted for Obama. Now I'm unaffiliated, and I voted for Harris. People just want a reason to hate because haters gonna hate hate hate (wise words of Taylor Swift) as it gives meaning to their pathetic lives.
