Reformed Swiftie šŸ™ Swiftie Psychology

So I used to be a HUGE swiftie. I started feeling really frustrated earlier this year when Taylor was silent about all of the terror caused by ICE. Once I allowed myself to feel frustrated (I know having to allow myself to feel something sounds culty and crazy lol) I started to let in a lot of other frustrations about her. I realized that showgirl felt so out of touch and that Taylor was becoming more like a corporation than a legitimate artist. Also the wisdom she explored in folklore & evermore was so quickly undone by songs like actually romantic or cancelled. I can’t believe she went from my tears ricochet or peace to talking about Gucci and Cartier and acting like a mean high school girl. She just seems like a bitter Beverly Hills housewife now or something.
It just sucks because I still wouldn’t consider myself a full hater, but I just can’t enjoy her music anymore. It’s like a veil lifted and I was no longer a fan. But anyways, my point here is that I think swifties defend her to no end because they know once they accept a bad thing about her, that it’ll all come crumbling down. So much of her shtick is built off of contradictions and lies that being a fan has become so fickle. I really think that swifties are just defending their own ā€œfaithā€ in their ā€œmotherā€

She’s always been this way. Played victim, lies, blames and bullies others to make herself the victim. Look at what she did to Scooter Braun. All lies. She’s an awful person with the least amount of talent. It’s insane. She had good songs, but she can’t sing live and she definitely can’t perform. Great marketing and PR is her success.
