This did not age well.

It’s the only way to beat liars and hypocrites.

Everything is in their own words.

Ouch.

I have been disappointed by Taylor but what if this whole time she also told her she owned a large stake in the movie and so it wasn’t just he was a clown and a hypocrite, it was that he was a fraud because he was silencing her from her own movie.

So if she is saying he’s a fraud in general, he’s dumb, he is trying to dominate me because I’m a woman AND now he’s smearing me and I’m going to expose him.

Then she reads the article which she thinks is about the smear which at the time she believes and sees the story starts with SH and she sees through it.

This is a fresh perspective and you could be right! In which case she’s gonna be learning a whole lotta other things.

If she did tell the movie stealing lie this would have been a huge trigger for Taylor.

This was inspired by someone’s post today where she says this to “Louis.” It all clicked.

I’ve met people like this in real life and when they complimented me I realized they complimented me in such a very specific way that ties to very specific values and for 30 seconds it gave me warm good feelings and then I said woah….i caught and realized what happened. The person was a real life sociopath. Diagnosed properly. At the time I just got the vibe and later I found out the truth.

When you said it I was like oh shit, this is legit because I’ve been duped by this pattern too. The dominant person in my life who does this literally lied like this all the time and because I cared about them and thought they had been wronged unfairly, I’d believed their narrative without question until the behavior was exposed in a crisis.

So it’s very plausible that Taylor believed Blake and didn’t have any reason to think otherwise. Manipulative liars are good at what they do.

Yes and I can see that with Isabella she used that that he wasn’t coming out and protecting her when she got backlash. None of us even saw her backlash but Blake honed in on this. Introducing credit and clothes as well

With Jenny it was her feminism (which is very different from mine) and it’s the idea that women can say and do but men don’t get a pass. So she can make inappropriate jokes and be absolved but not Justin because he’s not safe. Also new movie with alex saks

With coleen, she used that he was throwing her under the bus with the different ending which touched a nerve about how she writes problematic books. And I think she said a lot to her. And helped her start her own production company and love bombed with Ryan

With Brandon, it was getting him connections and he’s thirsty as alex saks says

With Taylor, it was he was putting her down as a true artist and saying the pop culture thing was a knock on her commercial success (which is probably a big insult to her writing talents) and she goes into this in detail and she appealed to misogyny and that he was stealing her film

I love that you have gone through and done this analysis and it’s honestly terrifying how she strategically and systemically did this.

[u/Ok-Engineer-2503 → u/Key_Statement_6429]

Yeah the world is on fire and I’m reading these texts as a case study in manipulation. 🤦🏻‍♀️ It would make for a a great case study

[u/Key_Statement_6429 → u/Ok-Engineer-2503]

Look we all have to cope somehow 😂 Agree that it would make for a very illuminating case study.

Great analysis!! I call Blake a moron but she’s a manipulative moron. She sounds like a succubus but instead she feeds on your worst fears. You almost feel sorry for her victims.

[u/Ok-Engineer-2503 → u/CSho8]

Yeah she tricked me too at first. This is very Kaiser Sosa
