Everything is racist these days, so we have to apply some logic and truth to see what's happening here. Let's click those links, shall we?
So if we have to dissect these accusations and use true definitions of what constitutes real racism - people who say that about Swifties are themselves racist. As an anti-Swifter, it torques me to have to defend them.
That's not what she said. Post the quote.
share“Why do I feel like it’s slightly racist to be a Taylor Swift fan?”
When someone asked her to expound on her post, she explained,
"I said FEEL, not think. Kind of like that feeling I get when there are too many American flags."
So you're correct, she doesn't feel that Swift fans racists, she feels they are slightly racist, but at least she didn't "say" that even thought she said it out loud, and must have done so without "thinking". Glad I could clear that up.
