      What’s also interesting is that new fans can actually discovery her large back catalog and find so many songs to relate to at this very moment in their lives or reflect upon previous moments that Taylor wrote about. The many life experiences, emotions, feelings, thoughts, ideas… she’s captured so many of them.

    She defended herself in the name of feminism against a line in Ginny and Georgia (“You go through men faster than Taylor Swift”). This was fine, but her “feminist” statement fell extremely flat when her fans went after the woman (a POC) who delivered the line with racist hate and literal threats of death. The hate Antonia received was featured on the news. Taylor and her PR team keep a close ear to the ground, especially with regard to news stories where her name is concerned. She is seemingly very preoccupied with her own reputation. She and her team had to have known about this. Her feminist statement proved to be the opposite of that. It was self-serving. Taylor is not a feminist. If she was, she would have come to Antonia’s defense. True feminism is intersectional, meaning that it recognizes that women of color face discrimination twofold.
    Before you all say “she can’t control her fans”, I know she can’t. But she can control her own use of her voice and platform, and she used hers in such a way as to endanger someone else. Speaking up with her issue with the line was fine. Not sticking up for Antonia was not fine.
    It’s like her fans literally have blinders on because they love her so much. They twist themselves into pretzels to justify the things that she does and are seemingly unable to say that these things she does are often wrong (ethically speaking). Anything you bring up, no matter how egregious, they try to refute it with a reason that bad behavior “isn’t that bad” or should be dismissed. Or they say mean and hateful things to the person making the comment trying to hold Taylor accountable. I have gotten A LOT of hate and I have not once been disrespectful to anyone. There is a reason people are afraid to say anything against Taylor Swift. And that’s not okay, tbh. That music critic who gave Folklore an 8/10 was just doing her job and she didn’t deserve to have her personal info leaked and death threats sent to her. At what point should a celebrity feel an obligation to set the tone for their fanbase?
    She has consistently been insensitive to racial issues. She (and her team) attempted to silence a blogger in 2017 for saying she should denounce white supremacy, rather than try to silence the literal Daily Stormer, a major right-wing publication (cited and quotes by the blogger) for saying that she shared their beliefs. I do not believe that Taylor is liberal, even if she is trying to throw us off of her scent by claiming to be liberal at the exact moment cancel culture was coming for her. A person does not refuse to denounce white supremacy for years only to become passionate about anti-racism, feminism, and social causes at the exact moment when the cultural climate shifts in favor of the Left. Seriously, where was that energy for the actual white supremacists saying she was one of them? why was it directed at some small blogger saying that she needed to speak up? We know why. Because Taylor is a capitalist who wanted the money of those white supremacist fans. But prioritizing making money over squashing life-ending hate is evil.
    This fandom is beyond toxic and honestly interacting with fans who will defend her no matter what shitty behavior you mention to them is a bit creepy.
    And so many people say “why are you even here if you feel this way. You are wasting your time. Get off this thread.” Or “get a life” or “you are trying to spread hate” or even “It happens in every fandom”. Or my personal favorite “Go seek professional help.” (Which is classic deflecting and also not cute to act like mental illness is a sick burn). Saying these things instead of validating the person with these real and valid concerns ensures that the situation will never improve (AKA enabling). It’s also a great way to silence all critics, which, when people have valid things to say, is bad. It’s similar to a strategy used by racists. People say “ugh you’re making this about race” or “uh oh, not the race card again” or “but white people suffer too” in effect to stymie progress towards breaking down racist barriers.
    Taylor is charming and that can be a trap because it makes people not want to hold her accountable. But we still should. She will only bend if we put that pressure on her. In my mind that’s how a real fan should act. Anything else is looking the other way/corruption.
    This is FOR SURE an unpopular opinion but I don’t have enough information on the whole Scooter Braun thing to be convinced he is a bad guy, nor have I been able to find any through my internet searches. I mean, he’s a billionaire probably, and they are all ethically compromised. But how do we know he did something wrong other than buying a record label? I personally feel worse about the fact that Taylor told fans to go off on him and didn’t say anything when his family got death threats and was doxxed than I do about anything a Google search can reveal Scooter has done, but maybe I am missing something. I am not saying he is not a creep. I’m just not sure I’m on the same page as everyone who is super outraged. What are we supposed to be mad at him for? I’d really appreciate answers to this question because being informed is important to me.
    *Talking about the fandom on the whole here. I know that this does not apply to each individual fan.
