She’s brave for standing up. More Caucasians need to get real and hold their social environment accountable.

I love Taylor, but she is overhyped. Same with Beyoncé.

If you read the New York Times this week, you will have seen a dance critic call Taylor’s moves ‘simple and unoriginal’, ‘stiff and awkward’, ‘imprecise and physically uncommitted’, yet still reach the conclusion that this parade of gawkiness is ‘powerful’, and ‘exceptionally effective’.

clocked it hard omg :deadbanana4:

I guess she's very brave for being a transphobe too, right? This is really the hill you want to die on? :rip:

Exactly. They don't understand the nature of things: For every reaction, there is always a counter-reaction.  And as Swift has a greater force, then they can counter the OTH with a greater force.

Once again Swifties cannot argue anything outside of money and sells. She is and will remain the most overrated artist in this modern age as long as she continues to serve nursery level melodies, atrocious lyrics, flat and non existent vocal power, and stage presence of a karaoke singer. Really need to emphasize just how unskilled she is as a songwriter in particular though, it is laughable how weak of one she is and yet constantly acclaimed for it.

What's even your point? :toofunny3:

 

Do you really think not EVERY fanbase run to defend their faves when negative threads i made about them? You think only Swifties are doing this? :toofunny3:

Everyone is busy and at the stadium right now but I’ll make sure to deliver your important message.

- A member acts shocked that this stupid thread is 12 pages and blames Taylor’s haters for it

 

- I point out the top three posters of the thread are Swifties, meaning that it could be Swift‘s own base the one adding up all those pages.

 

I don’t think it’s really that hard to understand. but maybe it’s me, hi, I’m the problem, it’s me.

It's rather unfortunate that the author of this opinion piece is transphobic. Not only because it is a bad stance but also because swifties are latching on to it to invalidate the valid points she's made.

I agree with her opinion and do not get the hype at ALL, it is so puzzling to me. We should be allowed to give opinions, just because she is the biggest pop star and super successful doesn't mean we cannot have opinions.

It's all true. She's a big consumer product and that's all. The hype machine around her is ridiculous and weird.

This tea. The seething makes her bigger tbh. Her haters don't understand that keeping her in their mouths and heads just cements her presence further and further. She'll never fade out of pop culture discourse literally ever. They will never know peace :deadbanana2:

She actually kinda isn’t possible to ignore at the moment.

Taylor is definitely very successful and talented blah blah.

 

At the same time - not all of her music is gems, Midnights is mid-AF. There's no need to pretend it's one of her best albums. :toofunny3: If any an up-and-coming singer released it they'd be panned I fear

I mean isn’t every artist who is big? 🤷‍♀️ the biggest problem with Taylor realm is that critics never say bad things about her I think after forklore this changed for a bit but I never read bad things about her in the media even before as well I’m not sure though. 
 

taylor is definitely overhyped but it’s majorly GP she has some great songs and that’s about it.

This part is true tho. Look at how BTS is getting acclaim too with their annoying music :rip:

There is no such thing as overhype. People simply enjoy and listen to her music. Especially when music taste is subjective.

 

If they only use this energy on the artist they like or they think underhyped/underrated...
