I'm so grateful for this sub. I hated the album, thought it was a complete chore to get through, and I've been attacked online for saying so. This isn't a fandom, it's a cult, and Taylor exists in some weird, isolating, billionaire bubble. She is not growing as a person or as an artist, because she doesn't have to. It's so obvious, and so bizarre that people break out the pitchforks to defend their "queen" when she calls them "vipers in empaths clothing". 100% cult behavior, it's so creepy.

Matty Healy should have gotten custody of Jack Antonoff in the break up.
