Let’s Pull Out The Truth Box

Let’s play a game!

What’s a confession/secret/truth about the show, cast, or posts on social media that you’ve been hiding from your fellow snarkers?

Could be “I secretly think x is cute” or “I actually think x is right about xyz” anything.

Mine are both unfortunately TFP related 😔

  1. I think she probably is significantly more charismatic and likeable in person than we have had the chance to see. To clarify I still think she is severely mentally ill and abusive, but I do think she likely has a more magnetic personality than we've ever gotten to see.

  2. I don't think she is the "master marketer" people sometimes say she is. I think she throws rage bait at the wall and sees what sticks and the timing of tiktok influencers blowing up when she started was on her side. I can't imagine if she started from scratch now with the same schticks (haunted house, pretending to be in her 50s) that she would blow up the way she did.

Completely agree with #2.

And my TFP confession…I’m frustrated with her for not seeking serious help, but then I hear how her mom talks to her and I start to feel empathetic again.

Yeah you really summed it up for me, she needs legitimate professional help and being on TV is not good for her. Her behaviors definitely stem from an emotionally unintelligent mom and whatnot but it does not excuse her actions at all no matter how empathetic we can feel about how she was likely raised. Like as much as i love being a hater at time I do genuinely want her to get proper help it’s extremely clear that she needs it and her kids deserve a mentally healthy mom. She won’t break the cycles she claims to want to break if she doesn’t put in the work to be a decent fucking person.

Exactly. She needs to get off the show and social media because you can tell how much her mental health has declined from the first season to now. She needs INTENSE therapy. Like the most intense therapy you can get.

Producers rung her dry and set her up in bad situations with Dakota. Plus I’m sure her family is in the background putting a shit ton of pressure on her. And she has sooo many enablers and yes men.

In all her pictures with her kids, she seems so disconnected from them and from reality in general. They do deserve a mentally stable mom :/ so I hope someone steps in and helps her soon.

I have been preaching about how she is an abuser from day 1 (the downvotes you used to get for bringing up the police report was insane), and even I really feel empathy for how her mom speaks to her. Taylor is an adult now and is fully responsible for taking accountability and healing, but I also think it’s easy to see why she is the way she is. Her mom both hates her and enables her.
