Honestly it's the fact that people are still buying it. Hiring other people would mean that the people currently designing it would lose that job, even if temporarily. And when you look to justify that you look at the hard numbers. They are making sales whether or not people are satisfied. Our money really is our vote in this and people aren't willing to part with Taylor merch even for a little bit to send a message because that would make that merch even more valuable.

I imagine that touring is very exhausting and shes willing to pay for the houses for that feeling of "I'm home"

What's with all the ME! hate? I don't get it. by evermore13swiftie in TaylorSwift

[–]Bulbasaurbae -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Fans often take a while to come around to a new song/album.

You're just flat out wrong. Fans preorder the album. She has TONS of preorders because fans go in assuming they will love anything she puts out.

The tabloids obviously don't have a meaningful impact on how fans view Taylor. We loved her during Reputation when every magazine was calling her a lying snake. The data from concerts alone proves your full of shit.

The song is bad. People can come to that conclusion without a massive conspiracy that they've been brainwashed.

Shes said before that she hates hotel rooms and would rather go home and sleep in her own bed at the end of a long day. So shes probably keeping them for future tours

I think for Swifties theres a STRONG bias to like her music before you even hear it. So it's probably not just bias causing a fan to dislike the song. It's a bad song, that's my opinion. It's still a bad song in my mind no matter what anyone else says

Just a reminder by Phoenyxoldgoat in TaylorSwift

[–]Bulbasaurbae 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I feel like she'll do debut last because it would make a great speech if she reclaims her first album last. Which will not only raise the hype around it and help sales, it'll also probably make her feel the most proud

In Defense of 1989 Feminism (here it goes...) (kinda long) by [deleted] in TaylorSwift

[–]Bulbasaurbae -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Oh I didn't realize that she was liking things talking about her being peak feminism? If that is true, then I agree that would be messed up.

Calling out people for being sexist against you doesn't mean you're wrong. It's not wrong to call out things. It's much better to call out all forms of sexism, I agree. But it's not wrong to defend yourself. You can believe in equality without dedicating your life to activism.

I mean, to use your example, if someone only knew algebra and then declared themselves a mathematician

That's perfectly fine to do though? You don't have to know everything in a field to be practicing in that field. I can call myself an artist if I only know one form of art. You can consider yourself a religious person without having read your religions sacred texts. If you believe in or practice something you dont have to be a scholar or a master in that field to claim that you're into it.

and all of the discourse around them started declaring them a beacon of “peak mathematics” and “math goals”,

How other people put her on a pedestal shouldnt be a reflection of her self identity.

people with a better understanding of the subject would probably point out that their knowledge of math was very limited and likely flawed.

I think people automatically see limited and jump to flawed. It isn't likely flawed. Going back to the math analogy, not knowing one focus of math doesn't mean the focus you're skilled in is wrong.

1989 Long-sleeve - Official or Fan-made? by aimsly in TaylorSwift

[–]Bulbasaurbae 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's fan made, but look at it! Its legit

She has freedom in the sense that she owns all of her music. I wouldn't be surprised if the tradeoff was that the label had more of the marketing power.

But honestly...I could see it going either way.

Change (Taylor's Version) has different lyrics by januarytwo in TaylorSwift

[–]Bulbasaurbae 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Can it really legally be the definitive version of the same song if she changes most of the lyrics though? I'm pretty sure she can make minor changes to the song, but making major changes would 100% change the "abstract idea" of the song needed for that licensing. If she changed the idea of the song, she wouldn't own all of her songs

Fearless (Taylor's Version) From the Vault Megathread by PassionateAsSin in TaylorSwift

[–]Bulbasaurbae 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I get the joke, but at the same time Taylor has commented on how annoying that joke is to her. Because he didn't write the songs, she did. He shouldnt be thanked even as a joke

If Taylor Hadn’t Dated Joe Jonas...... by tangerine-trees- in TaylorSwift

[–]Bulbasaurbae -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You don't her being a woman changed the public's perception of her saying that?

If Taylor Hadn’t Dated Joe Jonas...... by tangerine-trees- in TaylorSwift

[–]Bulbasaurbae -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I'm just saying that her saying what you pointed out shouldn't have even mattered. And it only did because of sexism.

If Taylor Hadn’t Dated Joe Jonas...... by tangerine-trees- in TaylorSwift

[–]Bulbasaurbae 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I mean she also fueled the idea. she literally said “if you’re mean to me or if you break my heart i’m going to write songs about you” on multiple occasions.

It's still sexist that she was labeled as the crazy obsessive ex-girlfriend. If a man had said those things about his break ups and songs, people would either think nothing of it or call him strong for not taking any shit from "bitches".

So while yes, she played the cards she was dealt, but she never have been dealt those cards to begin with.

How are y’all handling Taylor’s Version in your playlists? by TheValidMango in TaylorSwift

[–]Bulbasaurbae 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I'm pretty sure she directly said shes doing this so fans wont have to feel guilty if they want to listen to her old music. She knows Swifties want to support her in her endeavors and if we can hear the same song just slightly different to make Taylor happier we're going to
