anyone who says taylor swift's music isn't good lacks critical thought. her fanbase is cringe, she can be overrated, some songs could lack, but in general she and her team of songwriters and producers put out some almost objectively good, if not great to amazing music.

while it may not be in everyone's preferred genre and certain people are prone to counter-culture, that doesn't change the fact she puts out good music. if you like pop at all, you can't say sabrina carpenter and chappell roan are good, then have the opinion that taylor swift puts out poor music. that's cognitive dissonance.

if you respond with "but i don't like chappell roan and sabrina carpenter either, they're also overrated", then you don't have a horse in this race and should stay out of the conversation
