[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP - BTW the more and more I am reading about Taylor Swift the less I like her. I think she is emotionally stunted (a la Britney Spears) and has a touch of the mean girl tendency.  At the minimum she values profit over anything.  She could easily reach out to her Swifties and tell them to stop bullying people but she doesn't want to push back on the people who buy her stuff. [/quote]

So a man has to offer his opinion about a woman in his industry for no reason (he doesn't work with her) and she's the mean girl?

Methinks a lot of men are threatened by women like Taylor Swift. Dave Grohl is a legend, but he didn't hold up our economy last summer.[/quote]

She is at the top right now.  She is an apex predator in the field of music.  Why is pointing out that her show is an huge extravaganza rather than just people and their instruments bad?  The whole idea about capitalism that swifites continually defend (by saying she can charge her fans for whatever as long as they will play) is that competition runs the machine.  Competition automatically means the person at the top is the winner and is the one everyone guns for.  But it seems like Swifties want to be able to say she can be at the top and no one can even criticize her. That isn’t how the game of capitalism works. Just because you are a woman and at the top doesn’t mean you aren’t fair game for comparisons. You can’t have the capitalist structure the put her at the top without competition. This is the downside. [/quote]
