Thinking of unstanning Taylor Swift
I've been a swiftie for most of my life since I started listening to Taylor Swift's music, some of my favorite songs from her and "I knew you were trouble", "Look what you made me do" "ME", "Lavender Haze" and "Karma", I did also decide to join some sites like Twitter a while back to interact with other swifties... Huge mistake, a lot of swifties I've seen have been racist and extremely antiblack, always saying some of the most hateful stuff about black people and shoving black people (especially black Americans) into a box like we're a monolith who all hate Taylor Swift and all act and think the same. This has made me uncomfortable for a while but I tried to not let that get to me, but recently. I've a swiftie use racist AI generated photos of Beyonce and spew racist islamophobic stuff about black people and Muslims... Now I'm not sure if I should continue stanning Taylor Swift or not, since people say it's stupid to unstan an artist because of their fans, but it has come to the point where I'm tired of people in the same fandom as me discriminate and look down on people who look like me...

it's not stupid. a bad fanbase can definitely ruin things, but maybe you can stand as one of the good representatives. the music is what matters, not the other people who listen to it!
