Transcript – Taylor Swift

[(Anonymous)]

I am not a zealot, I'm not here to defend her or her music, I don't think she's the most talented or the best. You are free to dislike her/her music or think she's the most overrated person this century. But listening to Taylor Swift's music just gives me this most amazing glow inside. Maybe I'm just a basic white bitch, I don't know and I don't care. But I'm not going to stop listening.

idk why people are low key trolling you in the comments here. I'm glad you have something that brings you that kind of joy and I hope you continue to enjoy it and screw the haters.

[(Anonymous)]

I'm not one of the people upthread, but probably because it's an extremely mainstream opinion? They'd probably react the same way to someone making a secret out of "I like Disney movies. I don't care about anything else. They make me happy"

[(Anonymous)]

eh you've got a point but it's also an opinion that is widely made fun of or mocked. Taylor Swift can be one of those polarizing topics that depends on who your circle is. Sometimes hating her is the secret, sometimes loving her is the secret.

[(Anonymous)]

So is Disney, which is why I used that example. If someone had posted "I like Disney movies they make me happy. I don't care if I'm basic" people would also reply like "sure, cool. Hugely common opinion. Anyway"

[(Anonymous)]

DA
I’m not sure it really is a mainstream opinion, tbh. Her fans are seemingly more fans of her than her music.

And anyway, there is a lot of anti-TS sentiment in this comm and a lot of rabid stans, so I can understand someone who just enjoys her music feeling like it’s a secret.

[(Anonymous)]

There's also at least one hardcore swiftie here who sometimes demonstrates why so many people reflexively dislike the TS fandom and by extension TS herself

[(Anonymous)]

Looking at her music sales, I don't think you can claim "I like Taylor Swift's music" is an unpopular opinion. No personal opinion on that will change those massive numbers. It's silly to discuss even.

I'm also not saying OP can't feel it's a secret, I'm trying to explain why others are reacting in the way they are.

[(Anonymous)]

It seems like people are more likely to leave negative comments here. If OP had said they hate Taylor people would probably be like OK WELL THEN DON'T LISTEN TO HER?? But since they DO like her, it's OK WELL GOOD FOR YOU??

[(Anonymous)]

DA

I think it's more that the tone set by the OP is pre-emptively defensive so people are more likely to be like ok sure good for you. It'd be the same with a secret that went I hate Taylor and don't care if that makes me a hater I'm gonna keep on hating! They'd be like ok... sure, good for you. What more can they say?

Pre-emptive defense is absolutely a valid tactic to fend off criticism and haters, not saying that's bad. But at the same time it's not a discussion starter, you know?

[(Anonymous)]

Ehh, it's nice that OP found music they enjoy. It's the "But I'm not going to stop listening" part that's... okay then? Was anyone saying you should stop, or trying to make you stop listening to Taylor Swift?

[(Anonymous)]

That’s exactly how music should make you feel when you listen to it! We each have our own taste, no shame in that. Enjoy, nonnie <3

[(Anonymous)]

Same here, OP! I still haven't heard all her music (still waiting for Debut TV and the Rep B-sides), so it's like enjoying the feast I'm eating and knowing there's more great food to come.

[(Anonymous)]

and still when I say that I am so damn tired of TS secrets everyone get so fucking dramatic

[(Anonymous)]

ok but no one said you had to stop listening to her? I listen to her too but I don't feel the need to act persecuted about it

[(Anonymous)]

She has a pretty voice, so I have to say I enjoy hearing it.

The secret I should make is that I think the folksy, singer-songwritery stuff is boring and the pop stuff is absolutely great. I feel that way about most artists, though, unless it's some 70s guy with a droopy mustache.

[(Anonymous)]

I wish white women would stop basically insulting themselves for liking just about anything. How many black women would call themselves "basic black bitches" in a self depreciating manner for liking Beyonce, let alone others? This internalized racist misogyny needs to stop.

[(Anonymous)]

lmao just stoooop

The misogyny I'll give you, but white women have never hated themselves for being white. In fact, given the last US presidential election, many of them prize being white over being fellow women.

[(Anonymous)]

And Latino men prize their misogyny over their fellow Latinos, doesn't mean it's fine to be racist towards Latinos. And the ones with the internalised racism are usually leftist women.

[(Anonymous)]

You're the dude serenading his crush by playing romantic music outside their window. Only you're both the dude and the crush, and you can listen to whatever the fuck you want. Great job liking music, nonnie. You deserve it.

[(Anonymous)]

Good for you, OP. No sarcasm. It's nice to just like something.

Me, I'm indifferent, but not militantly negative.
