i think its so funny that alumni from schools like harvard and columbia that were there during the protests in the 60s-80s are expressing support for students currently protesting against the genocide in palestine, and random zionists that were NOT at these protests in the 60s-80s have the never ending audacity to tell these alumni "well thats different, what you protested was good and what they're protesting is bad." as if protesters against the vietnam war and apartheid south africa were not also demonized, arrested, brutalized, and even killed for their activism. history only remembers them fondly after the damage has already been done.
my favorite part of a new Taylor album release night is when 12:30am hits and there are a million brilliant posts analyzing all of the ttpd lyrics and drawing perfect comparisons to her past work like never in a million years will my brain work that quickly but I really love seeing it all
Seeing people say "wait TTPD is growing on me" is soooo frustrating because how could you ever think you're going to form a fully-fledged opinion on a new piece of music after listening to it once???? Our culture of instant gratification is ruining us.
