Tool - Stinkfist But It's We Are Never Getting Back Together
I think it is but I'm fine if it needs to be removed. I know it's not something like a Weird Al parody of a song, but in this instance, the person that created the video would be the one doing the parodying of both Taylor Swift and Tool in a way that is disturbingly hilarious.

WOW! I'd say entertaining works. A bit Weird Al-ish to me.
Look up the original video clip for Don then!
Their other vids are also... uhm... well... judge for yourself. This one's called perfecta:
Entertaining. I'm pretty sure that entertaining is the word I was looking for

What about Weird Al's version?
Nirvana Were a Feminist Band
I knew some of this stuff, but not that. But that seems ... problematic.
Cobain's lyrics were pretty famously difficult to understand. I had no clue what most of the lyrics to Smells Like Teen Spirit were until like 20 years after I first heard it when I was 10. Weird Al's parody of the song directly jabs at this, which a whole verse being:
"It's so unintelligible
I just can't get it through my skull
It's hard to bargle nawdle zouss???
With all these marbles in my mouth"
Considering all of that, if you're listening to "Polly" or "Rape Me" but only hearing half of the words, is it any surprise that people might not fully grasp the message? Might even interpret the songs as being pro instead of anti?
I love Nirvana. I agree with the intended messages of their music (at least, to the extent that I understand them). But any time that a band thinks that they don't want fans who don't agree with their "message", I tend to think it is just pointless.
Lots of bands take very clear political / ethical stances in their music. I can like the music without being fully on board with those messages. Even if I'm utterly opposed to them. I can like Rage Against the Machine without fighting the system. I can like System of a Down without being ... psycho? You might be a registered Republican who likes NOFX, or a registered Democrat who likes Kid Rock or Brooks and Dunn.
Basically, if I like what you're doing musically I don't give two shits about what your message is. The extent to which it might make me like you more or less is very negligible.
"rape me " was written as a reaction to the lack of response and understanding of "polly". basically "oh, that was too difficult to understand? this one should be a little clearer."
