DA

I think AYRT is probably spot on that most Swifties have had to do any hard work in addition to not facing hardship. Most are white middle class women who enjoyed relatively lower debt from school loans and have well off parents to co-sign for new cars and houses. They’re not paying 70% of their low income for rent, they’re paying 20% of their above median income for their mortgage with the added security of mommy and daddy to bail them out if they ever need it. Which they typically don’t because they start out ahead.

There’s nothing wrong with that and there’s nothing wrong with Swift herself. But it’s laughable how those privileged young women revere an even more privileged woman for fighting adversity to become so successful or how she’s a rags to riches story.

I found it hilarious when, a few months back, so many people I know who go on about privilege and white feminism were treating the criticism of her, a fantastically famous and successful rich white woman, like a social justice issue. My FB feed had full-on treatises defending her, treating her like some downtrodden vicitm of pervasive discrimination, from folks who usually say we need to "de-center whiteness" and that white women need to step aside and make space for BIPOC women.
