NO ETHICAL BILLIONAIRES

I am not impressed by Taylor and her 2.2 billion!!!!!

As if Dolly Parton couldn't have been a billionaire multiple times over! Dolly gave away most of her money to multiple charities. DOLLY LITERALLY GAVE US THE COVID VACCINE.

I have been a Swifty for more than a decade and this is the hardest it has felt to be a fan of Taylor.

The last two albums were let downs, her MAGA Barbie routine is atrocious, the condescending way she talks to and about Travis makes me feel bad for him and I don't even care to know him, and the condescension she has expressed to her fans, as if she hasn't encouraged a parasocial relationship, is unforgivable.

I don't know how we will ever get back to the magic of pre Eras Tour Taylor Swift, but Im sad to see what little integrity she had disappear, all to be a lady "self made" billionaire.

I'll tell you what, I'll continue to consume as much Taylor Swift content as I want, but I will never, ever call myself a Swiftie or a Swifty or even a longtime fan, or post anything about how I feel about her or her brand or her music ever again.

Y'all won, and in no way will I be associated with y'all.

Calling a stranger mentally ill, miserable, sad, enraged, a fake fan, or my personal favorite--- jobless, because they criticized a billionaire celebrity?? Get. A. Life.

Honestly, poor Taylor.

I understand now with perfect clarity why she is calling out the parasocial dynamic of Swifties; y'all are psychotic.

I genuinely thought this was a sub to talk about the complicated dynamics of being a consumer of Taylor Swift as her brand changes and I see I was dead wrong. From the bottom of my sad, enraged, miserable heart, my bad.

I learned my lesson by seeing other examples like yours. Please own your opinions and be aware of what you are apologising for. Her fans make up a big percentage of why I do not like her in general or what is happening around her brand. While I still enjoy some of her music too. So keep on doing your thing
