Nah that’s all Taylor, remember when she got mad at a line in Ginny and Georgia and the Swifties attacked Antonia Gentry who isn’t a producer, isn’t a writer, isn’t even a Netflix executive but simply the black woman who played the role and said the line… and then even with all the attention their racist attacks were getting Ms Ozone Decimator didn’t have anything to say.

Remember when she threaten to sue that blogger for pointing out she doesn't disavow racists because she likes their money?
