You kids…listening to you your bebop music on the hifi, wearing your denim pants…
From the Federalist?!

Pretty soon the white wimmins will be injecting marijuanas and dancing to swing music with the nigras.
“Elite tastemakers”? I’m not giving it a click, but I don’t have the feeling “elite tastemakers” were quick to embrace her.
(I love the Federalist Papers; Hamilton and Madison rock!)
Well, there IS this little gem:
“This finally brings me to my actual gripe, the specifics of why and how her music sucks: It’s utterly defined by self-obsession rather than introspection. Where other artists will occasionally do a Christmas album, it seems like every Taylor Swift album is a Festivus record devoted to the airing of grievances and feats of artistic strength.
To that end, she has almost wholly pioneered a new genre of what an acquaintance of mine calls the “bellyaching about a boyfriend” song.”
Right. So don’t listen. Kind of like I don’t bother to read The Federalist because I’m tired of their bellyaching about modern society.

I couldn’t name one song by her.
Ok, Boomer.

I couldn’t either. I wouldn’t know her from Justin Bieber. But it’s funny how devoted people are to her personally. Like fighting about which Beatle they’re gonna marry. It’s downright tribal.

The little bit I’ve heard sounded like 60s bubble gum music for teenyboppers.
You just don’t recognize musical genius!
I was surprised by the variety when I took the kids to her concert.
Like the Archies!
That was my (unstated) point: the Swifties are going to tear them apart. You don’t fuck with the Swifties.

What did Swift do to draw the ire of the online right?
Be a successful woman?
