 Q: What constitutes trolling? 
 
Because being in a thread of an artist I love to pieces and responding to idiocy - actual trolling - doesn't quite add up. Give me my usual and deserved "abrasive" point.

 Something needs to happen with these HIVe/HIV posts, like permanent points or something, it's disgusting 
 
Why are posts like that tolerated at all?  They're not funny.  When you can click a thread and see two or three posts and a ton of consigns obviously it's taken too lightly.  
 
Same thing goes for racism and homophobia

 The whole tracklist was revealed so there was no need for a separate thread for 1 song being announced

 Please tell me you're fixing the mobile site with the update. There have been so many occasions where I've been tempted to throw my phone across the room because it makes me so angry, then I have to remind myself how much it's worth haha

 Disregard. I just downloaded an AdBlock app for my phone. So happy I could cry    goodbye ATRL ads!
 
Edit: as soon as I posted this comment, I got redirected to an ad. Then when I came back and pressed "edit comment" I got redirected to an ad. Now I'm going to press "submit comment." Hopefully I don't get redirected to another ad. Please sort it out. I don't mind it its once, or twice, or even 3 times in a session, but it is literally every time you try to open a new page. You get a glimpse of it for 3 seconds and then you're being redirected to an ad, and then your App Store pops up.

 Yeah, that's the only reason why mobile hasn't been fixed. The update includes a new layout for mobile.

Let's take all our faves out of the equation, if you can logically think that way! 
 
Let us say that you read an article about a friend of yours. You read many things that are written and they are not true; you would, in your right mind, come to that friends defense. Would you not? Especially, when things being said are not the truth. Now, you happen to bring Taylor into the equation and (only because, she happens to be the top reigning pop star as of now), you become hypocritical. Why don't you people look at your own motives: They sound extremely biased, devoid of the reality of the matter. Taylor, is in fact, very happy, in her own skin and she states so in the article and in other articles, she has confidence in life(there is no bad Karma going on). She is merely stating a fact that the media exaggerates or fabricates certain things. You hypocrites, then must come out of the woodwork, more so because you are truly biased and pressed. 
Yes, Taylor writes songs. She writes about personal experiences that are close to the heart. And true songwriters do that, and others have throughout the history of music. But Taylor is not complaining but stating a fact, 
Taylor, after all, is inherently correct to connect with her very own feelings. (It is the songwriter's perrogetive and the best of songwriters do that). In fact, Swift, is truer to that message than the media could ever be. And your attempts at shaming someone for it will certainly fail. It is obvious! Why would a Katherine fan, decide to post this post, other than to stir something up! 
Remember, true songwriters, speak the truth from their heart, whether it be about John Mayer (maybe he was a jerk!) or about a failed relationship. And this songwriting scheme doesn't just apply to Swift. All true songwriters write about their experiences. Now, if I were to pick between Swift and a few scumbag gossip sites who seem to be shysters (licking their lips at creating fabrication), I choose Swift for being straight-up honest. The shameful thing are the people buying into the media accounts. If so, then you are being deluded, and Swift has the right to set you straight. As far as I know, Swift speaks the truth, and the media are true scumbags in the matter. We've caught them in many, many lies, over and over again, as if they think they have some agenda. But, you know that agenda is failing. 
perfect and articulate explanation from Taygod as usual there's nothing wrong with her calling out and acknowlegeing how the media has take advatge of this persona they made for her and fabricated stories for their publications that make her look sad and desperate and crazy wte. the fact that so many people in here actually think she has 10+ boyfriends or that all of her songs are about them proves that point not to mention the existence of blank space. 
 
also idk why people are mentioning Shake it off she clearly states these were the feelings that lead to her to her jaded view of relationships hence long before shake it off even happened. past tense.

 It might be a matter of personal preference. I'm not sure there was any particular reason.
