She did go all ~white feminism* on Nicki Minaj that one time, but that was mostly just her being ignorant and basically not reading the OP.

She's a mediocre pop star who's popular because she's blonde and inoffensive, but not much else.

Can you share the NIcki Minaj situation? i remember she actually attacked Taylor for winning something one time, or about a nomination, i don't know.

And she's popular because gurl can write some hits. And that's a lot more than what you can say from people like, Katy Perry, that can't sing shit and doesn't write either.

I used to not like Taylor Swift. some weird guy here had her as an avatar when she was still country, and would always post her in the "what, are you listening too?" threads which weirded me out because she was like 16.

then at my old job they used to play a bunch of songs over and over again, like love story and you belong with me. I would always think, oh god, this is that weird pop/country hybrid teen-ager I heard about. hated it at the time, even though I can look back at those songs with reverence today.

then I was home on some weekend and i saw this because why wouldn't I be watching the country music awards during my free time.

idk, I don't know a lot about country music, but there's something about this performance that presented her and her song in a way I had never considered before. probably because of the presentation and I'm assuming the people performing on stage with her. I have no idea who they are. but after this Taylor Swift went from some teenybopper who I heard about on the internet to someone who I could actually listen to.

to this day I don't remember who used to Stan for her so hard, but whatever. 1989 was good.

Something similar happened to me, tbh. My turning point was "All Too Well". Such a sincere, powerful, nostalgia-driven song, something i thought i'd never find on pop music in the 2010- decade. Then, that moment when you realize you don't need to be so hard in criticizing light music and you don't have to always listen to deep, experimental 7minute long shit that snob people usually drool over.

And 1989 delivers.

Lol I probably went overboard with the constant exaggeration used by people when referring to celebrities people like. I got this habit from Twitter and PopGAF to be honest, lol.

Exp, calling Taylor a "goddess", "Queen," "Perfect".
Calling Chris Evan a "God", "Perfect"
Calling Kanye West, "Our future president" (#Kanye2020)

Sorry if my post came off as weird or trolling because of the exaggerations. Let me say this in a better way.

I don't believe Taylor Swift is racist, or a Nazi, or whatever. I also don't believe she would ever date or be sexually involved with Kanye, not because he's black, but because Kanye is... Kanye (and also he's married to Kim". Taylor Swift seems to have a type, like Harry Styles. As a massive fan of T-Swift, I would actually be shocked if she dated anyone that seems to be out of place with her "Good, simple life" persona she gives off in Interviews.

This is all in response to someone stating fans are going to be wrecked when it turns out she's fucking Kanye. :p

I don't know what Alt-Right is, but I do know what Red Pill is.

Red Pill is essentially a group of MRAs that have "taken the red pill", which to them means realizing that men are discriminated against in society just for being men on a large scale. They often try and lure people in with issues that actually do affect men, but then slowly pull you in to believe a bunch of insane nonsense.

There is an entire subreddit dedicated to this.

And yes, the Red Pill is a reference to The Matrix.

alt-right is fascist hipsters who think they're too cool to be called conservatives.

red-pillers are MRA's who claim dudes are being discriminated against by the big evil socialist feminazis who secretly control the world. The fact that they refer to The Matrix unironically should tell you most about them.

Nicki shaded MTV for eurocentric basicness, Tay tay took offense because she embodies those values, but no one was talking to her so she should have taken a seat, but since Nicki is a scary black hip hop lady the media rallied around Taylor within seconds. She later apologized.

Cause she can sing.

I mean you can hate her music but to say she can't sing.

She also treats her real fans amazingly well.

Visits them, sends christmas presents. She's actually a pretty cool person.

I love the music video to Shake It Off. It's one big "I don't give a fuck".

Taylor Swift did a surprisingly great performance with Def Leppard on Crossroads awhile back. While her music is not my cup of tea I find her to be far more talented than most of todays other pop divas.

Wot. Lol I'm not saying Our Queen is racist. Far from it, she's a perfect goddess, perfect people can't be racist.

I'm just saying I can't even imagine her having sex with Kanye since he mentioned it lol, Kanye isn't her type. Not because he's black, but because he's fucking Kanye lol. I love Kanye, but I mean just look at his recent appearance on Ellen... Lol.

I only mentioned a white male, Chris Evans, as someone I can picture her with because Captain America is a perfect man. ;P

No racist intentions in my posts, nor do I think Taylor is remotely racist.

EDIT: lol I used Sexist instead of racist. Lmao what I get for rushing a post at work.

I don't know this meme started but it's been around a while.

First time I became aware of it was with these pictures of her with Goebbels quotes attached.

If only that was a realistic choice, because to many camps, there is NO "in-between" or middle ground. Even if you don't like something(and aren't a jerk about it), people who DO like it look at you like you are some kind of monster. Visit that one non-drinker thread to know how people who "just don't want to drink"(and aren't assholes about it) are treated and looked down upon by drinkers simply for "existing". It's like humanity deals in extremes.
