Streaming farms confirmed!!! 

No sis, Taylor is factually the biggest pop star in the US right now. Literally no one denies this FACT

 

Are you purposely trying to live under a rock or sth?

I knew OTHs would meltdown HARD when numbers for 1989 TV would start to come out and i'm not disappointed. It's beyond hilarious how one of the most common tactics is to take anecdotal examples and apply it to the ENTIRETY of her fanbase just because they can't cope with her success. It's been over a year since her massive commercial comeback, DEAL WITH IT already instead of endlessly coping with the most embarrassing arguments you can possibly make

I mean to be fair to the good sisters in the OTH camp, they have literally no other options. Taylor is once again conservatively estimated to notch the biggest debut this side of 25, and there's literally nothing they can do about it other than "well whatabout!!!"

Being a OTH is truly a sad state of existence, indeed. There is no argument against Taylor that stands up to scrutiny, nothing ever makes sense, it's just endless delusional coping. I'm glad to be on the winning side, it's quite lovely here

Taylor has literally taken every last drag that had. There’s nothing left but a few one week numbers (All to Well got its rightful place in the world) and the fact she uses multiple versions isn’t valid because the entire industry does it now. She came back with her longest running number one, 52 weeks on the hot 100, a multi week number one 4 year old slow climber, two more million+ seller weeks. She takes and takes from them. I’m sad for them at this point.

The multiple variants excuse is still going? When this literally has the exact same number of vinyl variants as Guts?

GUTS has 15 vinyl variants  1989 TV only has 5

 

[josesuxx]

Insane insane numbers but I’m never surprised anymore she’s a legend

Taylor actually succeeds at selling her variants, that's why she's singled out in those conversations. People are just bitter that their own faves can't sell the same way.

It's funny isn't it? And yet people will make endless excuses for her and still pretend she isn't having a sophomore slump

ntm on Olivia but this does show that multiple variants doesn't guarantee chart success at all...

When was each variant announced. For curiosity reasons (before y’all throw more tantrums)

13 were up for pre-order and contributed to GUTS' first week. The last 2 (not pictured) were released a month after it came out.

And the remaining 5 mentioned in the quoted post ?

In OTH logic, more vinyl variants = more sales

 

That’s why Guts and its 15 variants sold 150k while 1989 TV and its 5 variants is predicted to sell 1.2 million.

 

OTH logic is BROKEN per usual. Always doing mental gymnastics. 

[fridayteenage]

If Taylor does anything, it's automatically evil regardless of whether anyone or everyone does it. That's their logic, I believe

EXACTLY. They have double standards reserved only for Taylor because they blindly hate her, it's as simple as that. There's no logic, no rationality, just hate.

They literally need to go back to school and learn the law of supply and demand.

 

OTH, here's a crash course for supply and demand. Hope this helps!

You're talking about tantrums? Didn't you get banned for insulting a member repeatedly over.....not updating a thread?and research things yourself for once instead of grilling people on here to look it up for you
