I remember something where Tina Fey wrote a bit on SNL parodying swift and someone interviewed Taylor and she said something to the effect of “as Barbara Walters says there’s a special place in hell for women who don’t support other women” about Fey in regards to a pretty gentle and innocuous comedy bit. Which was funny because Barbara Walters was a shitty person who broke down other women too. I honestly think Swift isn’t super different from Kanye. They’re both rich, self-obsessed assholes who have zero sense of humor about themselves and zero real-world awareness. A lot of people have known she was a piece of shit for a long time but if you ever said anything about it you were called a liar, sexist, jealous, or we’re just doxxed by swifties

At least Kanye West's lack of awareness stems from him refusing to take medication to stabilize himself (on top of being a petty bitch who'll die on any hill he's standing on, even if he found himself there unintentionally).

Taylor Swift is just milquetoast, "I don't understand why the poors are complaining" rich apparently.

I see where Swift was coming from there, I always found the "roasting someone" phenomenon quite strange. Being horrible to one another isn't something worth celebrating, in my view.
