Re: Kinda inspired by 6

I don't identify as a Swiftie because some of them are just too intense. I'm simply an enjoyer of the music/person.

I also go out of my way to avoid the Star Wars fandom. I watch everything, just don't engage with the fandom at all, because it's beyond exhausting.

Yeah, I'm pretty much the same. IDK if the reason I don't ID as a Swiftie is because some of them are too intense, or because I feel like I'm too old for that specific type of fandom allegiance, or if those are just two different ways of saying the same thing. But at the same time, I freely acknowledge that I am a big enough fan to be a Swiftie, even if I choose not to use the term Swiftie about myself.

I don't buy merch or put up posters, I almost never argue with people online about her, I don't stream her songs or videos on repeat in order to "support my fave," and looking at pictures of her wedding is not going to make me emotional.

But I know most of her songs by heart, I root for her to succeed as an artist, I keep up with the news about her, and I occasionally comment on the Taylor Swift reddit sub. There's no question that I'm a fan. It's just that calling myself a Swiftie makes me feel like I'm claiming a heightened level of devoted, parasocial adoration that I don't have, and that I feel uncomfortable being identified with.

Same here! Except, I have bought a little bit of merch haha. But I love the music, I generally like her, I somewhat keep up with what's going on with her, I am also generally rooting for her. However, I don't get mad if someone else dislikes her, I don't think she's flawless, I don't love every single song she has ever released, I'm not going to stream her music or buy variants just to try to help her chart position. There are some fans out there who genuinely treat her like a god, and that just makes me kind of uncomfortable. And of course it's not just her, I mean, I have seen very small-scale YouTubers with like 5,000 subscribers who have a little handful of devoted, loyal fans who think the sun shines out of their ass. It's just WEIRD.
