I remember when she made a whole big deal about realizing that she herself was a problem and her use of drama for attention whoring was making her less likable and that she might not ever be able to find love again.... And then that was the same album as "look what you made me do"

I liked her music but i have come to realize she's pretty awful and refuses to change unless its to protect her wealth and control her image to her sycophants.

And this businesswoman playing safe and out of touch with kids money is beyond disgusting to me now.

wasn't that "Anti-Hero" from Midnights (2022), not anything from Reputation (2017), the one with "Look What You Made Me Do"? and imo the 2017 album was justified given the massive defamation she suffered from Kanye West, which doesn't make the things she's done in the past 5 years better but still more than justifies Reputation for me

"Delicate"

She was calling herself out eariler than people think.
I think anti-hero is her being more self agrandizing so people think she cared about being a bad person.
She had already dutched friendships because of Katy Perry hiring back some of Swift's backup dancers, written petty songs about people calling them pedophiles (john mayer) and been clearly on a war path of business. I find "look what you made me do" actually petty and low basically announcing she didnt need to change cause she had the fans. She casts so much shade you would think the sun is going out the way she hogs it up.
