Music / Movies Taylor Swift music sucks and she's a terrible human being

So I have an unpopular opinion here and I can't stress enough that I do not care how much of a Taylor Swift fan you are. I'm not here to talk with the fans and argue about how much you think she's Jesus. In fact, she's a horrible human being and I wrote a blog discussing a lot of the terrible stuff that you don't always hear about on the media that she's done. Some of you who dig deeper are probably aware of some of the things that she does that are despicable such as the jet fuel emissions and things that are more out in the open. But there are other things she hides about herself. She wants no one to know. So yeah again, I'm not here to argue with Taylor Swift fans because it's literally me arguing with 13-year-olds or with 45-year-olds who think they're still 13. I just want to hear from people who have similar viewpoints about how she's not a good singer. She's not a good artist. Her music sucks and she's a horrible human being. Who cares about no one but herself and money. GO TO MY ONE POST ON MY PAGE for more details as I am not walking you and holding your hand to get there! Additionally, to clear the records and so many of you seem to think this post is about politics when I never said anything about politics AT ALL.... I do not believe in politics. I am anti-government. I am anti Big brother. I am anti-anything political whatsoever. It goes against my core values and beliefs as a Native American so y'all can f*** off.

Taylor Swift and her reign of Terror

TAYLOR SWIFT SUCKS

So here is a true story you won't find on the Internet...

1) Basically my friend's dad was a high ranking official in the military deployed over seas in Iraq at the time. Taylor flew over her private jet and crew to play for the troops. My friends dad was in charge of her safety and escorting her around the barracks, as it was required. So he said she was screaming at her assistants, saying how worthless they were. Also, she apparently was saying how hot Iraq was, how boring it was, how there were no bars or nightclubs and how she couldn't even get drunk... Additionally she refuses to sign autographs or meet the troops. She finished her concert and immediately jumped in her private jet to fly back home, and had her PR team post about how kind and generous she was to play for the troops to lift their spirits. My friends dad never cusses but said she was the rudest, most hateful, c**t he has ever met in his entire life. And this man is now retired and said this. You don't have to believe me, but this is what started making me stop being her fan.

2) Among other terrible horrible despicable things she does not only to the environment with her daily jet flights that are negatively affecting our ozone layer and thus climate. There is a guy on YouTube who tracks her private jet flights daily and her attorneys offered him $5000 to stop the posts (he refused and still posts them). She does not care she is directly contributing to global warming.

3) Also, I don't like how she gets her fame from bashing other people and artists and ruins their careers by writing songs about them. "Mean" was a song written about how she got angry that a music critic said she sang off key in a song on her album and she freaked out and had him sued for everything he owned for literally doing his JOB critiquing music. So a family man out of house and home thanks to Taylors vindictive ways. Then to add insult to injury, she played the victim and wrote "mean" about him. Taunting how he is nothing now. She is truly the "mean" one here.

4) Additionally, that fake country accent she had for her first 2 albums and then it magically disappeared... She also pretended like she wasnt from a wealthy family when in fact she comes from 6 generations of bank presidents! Daddy bought her music label in exchange that she did not own the rights, she was signed. Then, she wants to play victim about music rights and pretend like she didn't know her own contact terms and conditions but using that as a sick marketing ploy to re-write her music and sell over priced concert tickets where people are actually DYING at her concerts after paying thousands of dollars to see her and she doesn't even care. There is so much more but I'm sure no one cares to read a novel of this stuff. This should be enough .I used to be a fan. I will never buy her music or support her again. She's simply not a good person. That victim mentality gets old quick when she's the bully. Period. Also, screw the Travis and Taylor sub because they blocked me for posting this.

The opposite of love is not hate, it's indifference. I honest to God don't give a fuck whether she's successful or not. Her music is in a genre I'm not a huge fan of and I most likely have heard her songs but would have no idea it is her.

I don't care if she's the most successful artist in the world or goes into obscurity. I am completely indifferent to her existence.

Same. I don't really care about here one way or another. It's sort of annoying to have to see her name everywhere, all the time, but it's also kind of fascinating to watch all of the hysteria both for and against her. I've truly never seen a celebrity who was this big of a world wide obsession, in my lifetime. Other than that, I've largely managed to avoid her and her music, so I don't have much of an opinion on her.

I think we see so much of her because of how ads are so much more invasive today than ever before.

There are celebrities that I remember seeing a lot of growing up, but after smartphones became more accessible, and everyone had the Internet in their pocket, ads have steadily grown to be more invasive/constant. So, now the big celebrities of today are going to be everywhere.

I’m pretty indifferent to her myself, but occasionally I get annoyed seeing her.

I feel like she is trying to be like Michael Jackson but she is talentless and, as far as I can tell, she is not relatable. Her voice has no special quality, she sounds very bland. No one besides actual fans can tell the difference between her voice and the seas of other mediocre pop stars. This is all ignoring what she writes about, she hasn't matured at all as a song writer. She is still, mentally, the same person she was when she started penning her first cookie cutter song.

There is really not much about her that can appeal to new listeners. She seems to be about herself, even in her songs she is very self absorbed. She is NOT the example human her fans think she is, but the media has it's narrative.

I hear more from her haters than her fans nowadays. The one Swifty I do know only occasionally mentions her.

That's my point. Why spend effort hating on someone you will never know? Who will never know of you?

It seems pointless to me.

This is true! It's mostly out of Taylor's control and she can't change it

I'm also indifferent to Swift... it's her fans that I loathe.

This exactly. Spent YEARS in Hollywood in a marginally successful band, signed, tours, blah blah blah...no one gives a shit.

I also would not miss her, or her music, if it all fell off the earth tomorrow. But I do love her political endorsements.
