I don’t see many other fandoms do it like they do

    1. Taylor Swift is incredibly talented, I just wish she would use some of that talent to make better music.

      Try pointing out she was born into a very wealthy family and that came with enormous advantages. That one makes them pretty mad.

      This one cuts both ways

      Like two psychotic crabs foaming at the mouth and screaming

      Lots of unhinged hate-fans

    4. I get the “I’m not a good person” vibes from Taylor Swift, so not only are most of her music not my style, I don’t like her.

    5. I feel like her fans mistakenly identify her clever marketing as musical genius. I once had a Taylor Swift fan correct me after I said “album” instead of “era”, because “her music sounds different between albums, so it’s not enough of a distinction if you don’t call it an era”

      And it’s like yeah, fair enough, but you do realize that most artists’ albums sound different from each other, right? Like if I heard an old Linkin Park song, and I didn’t specifically remember the album it was on, I could probably guess correctly based on the general vibe, because Linkin Park’s albums sound different. Doesn’t mean we need to refer to it as “The Meteora Era”

    6. I would still say that her fans are nothing compared to Beyonce or Nicki Minaj fans, those are the ones that jump to death threats in a few sentences.

    7. Yes, but also:

      People who aren’t Taylor Swift fans any time they meet someone who enjoys the music of Taylor Swift

      I love my mom but she accused me of being a misogynist for not liking her. (I’m a woman)

    9. I see her name come up constantly in dating app bio sections, and it’s often along the lines of “if you don’t like T-Swizzle fuck you.”

      I listen to a lot of music, and generally prefer people don’t trash it however I also don’t expect them to like it.

      I am a high school teacher whose class is mostly full of girls. Taylor is whatever to me, I really don’t listen to her music. But I make sure to call her “the greatest poet of our time” so the teens don’t hate me. It’s fake but I don’t care. She’s almost a god to some of these people. 

      It’s amazing how much I know about her just through cultural osmosis. That and my sister being a Gaylor. I never meant to know so much about Josh.

      Taylor Swift and Trump are in tbe same business. Making cults of personalities and needing to fuck off.

    12. Gotta say, for over a decade now we have all seen memes that say this, but I don’t think I’ve ever actually encountered a Swift fan that is anything remotely like this, both in person or online.

      Unlike OP, who is very normal about Taylor Swift and certainly isn’t fixating on her and the fandom
