Perhaps you’ve heard that Taylor Swift’s rumored boyfriend Matty Healy called rapper Ice Spice a “chubby Chinese lady.” Perhaps you’ve heard that he jacks off to racist porn. Perhaps you’ve heard that he’s bigoted against Hawaiians and Inuits, and salutes Hitler. Perhaps you’ve heard that the 34-year-old English singer raped and murdered a girl in Shreveport, Louisiana, during the summer of ‘68, or led the cavalry during the massacre at Wounded Knee. Ever since Healy, The 1975’s frontman, started dating Swift, he’s apparently committed virtually every sin in the West’s civic religion — having been called racist, anti-black, homophobic, transphobic, Islamaphobic, colorist, xenophobic, antisemitic, sexist, and a white supremacist.

And because she’s refused to dump Healy, Swift has also faced immense criticism from the terminally online members of her own rabid fanbase. Angry fans wrote open letters, and attempted to cancel their merch orders. One person reported that Swiftie group chats were plotting an organized campaign to have her placed under conservatorship. In a recent article, Huffington Post Audience Editor Cambria Roth, who counted herself as a Taylor Swift fan before the Healy controversy, wrote of her fellow Swifties, “They’ll defend her at all costs — even if that means defending bad behavior and white womanhood.” And Swift’s recently announced collaboration with Ice Spice has been panned as a P.R. move.
