Dude, in Verse 2 of mirrorball Taylor is saying that *ALL* of her fans are gross delulus who get drunk on watching her suffering and that this one specific person from her real, actual life whom she's addressing in the verse is the ONLY person who ISN'T a sick freak that gets kicks out of watching her like a zoo animal like her *ENTIRE* fandom does.

Fuck off shitstain, Taylor has made it more than clear in her music that she never really had much interest in coming out of her comfortable closet even when in serious relationships, let alone just so pathetic little masquerade revelers like you in the LGBTQ+ community can use her as a political figurehead against her will.

There is no point in you losers existing as a fandom for any reason other than validating to Taylor that if she ever comes out she'll be expected by losers like you to tolerate being dehumanized worse than ever before by freaks like you in the LGBTQ+ community solely for the benefits of others despite her being pretty clear on Midnights that she personally doesn't want anything to do with that shit.

Taught me some hard lessons // But I've learned the lesson // Wages earned and lessons leaned // Ask me what I learned from all those years

I Forgot That You Existed (Lover) // You Need To Calm Down (Lover) // right where you left me (evermore) // Karma (Midnights)

When Taylor Swift said "cause shade never made anybody less gay" and when Kacey Musgraves said "follow your arrow" and when Ariana Grande said "gotta live my truth, not keep it bottled in" and when Dove Cameron said "I could be a better boyfriend than him" and when Lil Nas X said "you live in the dark, boy, I cannot pretend" and when Harry Styles said "lights up and they know who you are" and literally all of Lady Gaga's "Born This Way" and-

My oh my I love queer lyrics, I could continue this list for miles.

I think it's time we look at You Need To Calm Down reframing that cringe a lot of us (me include) looked at it with, and consider it is camp.

At the time this came out I had a strong reaction to cringe and there was a conflict in watching this video and listening to the song.

This conflict for me, came from seeing this assumed straight woman doing this to get "ally points" but also, seeing that this is Taylor Swift who is meticulous with details, dressed herself in queer flags, included herself with the queer community, stated "our gowns".

My gay ass was confused.

This conflict in my head took a while to settle and I've been listening and giving Lover era more credit, this includes YNTCD.

I feel like there was too much backlash and might have shaped her decisions in being so out there again.

I'm real curious if others think this too or had this struggle.

#ts #ts lyrics #taylor swift lyrics #you need to calm down #yntcd #lover era #gaylor swift #truly the more i look at it and accept that Taylor is a fucking smart woman #was this her wanting to come out but the public outing never happened

with all due respect WHAT is going on with the swifties

okay so sincere answer: a lot of people who have spent YEARS convincing themselves that Taylor Swift is a closeted queer woman who's been sending coded messages through her lyrics, Instagram posts, imagery in her concerts, and pretty much everything else. this *is* conspiracy thought, complete with a thought terminating cliche: when pressed, Gaylors fall back on the insistence that Taylor CAN'T come out. their offered reasons seldom make much sense or hold up to scrutiny, but as long as they've been able to hold onto the refrain that Swift simply can't come out, it's possible to maintain the belief that she is signaling queerness but may never be able to confirm it. every boyfriend can be excused as a beard, every denial that she's dating a female friend can be understood as a lie, every insta post can be analyzed qanon-style for clues that only you and your in-group understand.

Gaylors have, obviously, been certain that these clues were being deliberately planted and thus that Swift was encouraging them and WANTED to be understood as queer in some kind of transparent closet situation; the fact that Swift has embraced the aesthetics of allyship with things like her unbelievably tacky video for You Need to Calm Down has been read as approval. receiving even a very mild admonishment - in this case, Swift expressing disappointment that rabid speculation about her romantic life didn't end when she decided to prioritize friendships with other women over dating men - is thus seen as a betrayal, as Swift breaking a contract that, in reality, she never knew about or agrees to. the ensuing social media tantrums we're seeing are what happens when someone has dedicated considerable time and energy to justifying a conspiracy, including building significant social networks around it, only to have that belief challenged by a source that they never thought would contradict them even a little.

in fairness I also never thought she'd do it; I really thought she'd play both sides and keep collecting that Gaylor money forever.

It's taken me this long baby, but I figured you out // Don't leave me like this, I thought I had figured you out // Fighting with him was like trying to solve a crossword and realizing there's no right answer // And all the pieces fall right into place

You Need To Calm Down (Lover) // Haunted (Speak Now) // Red (Red) // So It Goes... (reputation)

You are somebody that I don't know But you're taking shots at me like it's Patrón And I'm just like, "Damn! It's 7 AM"

Say it in the street, that's a knock-out But you say it in a tweet, that's a cop-out And I'm just like, "Hey! Are you OK?"

And I ain't tryna mess with your self-expression But I've learned the lesson That stressing and obsessing 'Bout somebody else is no fun And snakes and stones never broke my bones

So, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh! You need to calm down You're being too loud And I'm just like "Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh! You need to just stop Like, can you just not step on my gown? You need to calm down"

You are somebody that we don't know But you're coming at my friends like a missile Why are you mad When you could be GLAAD? (You could be GLAAD)

Sunshine on the street at the parade But you would rather be in the dark ages Just making that sign Must've taken all night

You just need to take several seats And then try to restore the peace And control your urges to scream About all the people you hate 'Cause shade never made anybody less gay

So, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh! You need to calm down You're being too loud And I'm just like "Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh! You need to just stop Like, can you just not step on his gown You need to calm down"

And we see you over there on the Internet Comparing all the girls who are killing it But we figured you out We all know now We all got crowns You need to calm down

Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh! You need to calm down (You need to calm down) You're being too loud (You're being too loud) And I'm just like "Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh! You need to just stop (Can you stop?) Like, can you just not step on our gowns You need to calm down
