Unpopular opinion: I don’t like Ally’s takes

Okay so the actual person- Ally Sheehan- seems sweet and lovely and I have zero problem with her. She is a kind hearted, sweet person who cares about the environment and animals and just an all round wonderful person.

But I am surprised her channel is as popular as it is (and way more popular that Swiftologist).

She is an OG swift and so is not a gen z and for someone her age, I find that she is remarkably incapable of any critical thinking. It seems she is just a Stan account (someone told me it’s because she hopes Taylor will see and invite her?).

I have tried so many times to watch Ally because swifties like her so much but I don’t get it. The thing is I really WANT to like her! I love Taylor and her fans are swifties so I feel there is something ‘wrong’ with me that I don’t like her hahah

So my questions are- Who is her channel aimed at? Surely everybody would have some critical opinion of Taylor Swift, it’s impossible to like everything someone does, even your family member

She says nothing aside from how everything Taylor puts out is the most amazing thing ever? Like in her tier song ranking she said every Taylor Swift song is better than any other song by any other artist.

So ‘ME!’ Is better than every single non Taylor song to have ever existed??

And her controversial opinions aren’t at all controversial, they all centre Taylor could do no wrong. Whereas Zach is genuinely able to critically assess Taylor which makes his positive opinions about her even more believable because if everything is amazing (as ally claims) then surely that means nothing is amazing?

This post is really meant to be from a place of seeking to understand her appeal from those who do like her. Like why is she so popular? Is it meant to appeal to those who just want to love Taylor without critically analysing her? If so power to you, that’s fine. I’m just trying to understand her audience I guess.

Note: I haven’t watched all her videos so maybe I am wrong, in which case point to me to videos she is critical and my view is definitely something I am willing to revise if I see evidence I am wrong

Please don’t be mean, I am just genuinely trying to understand the appeal. I’m happy to have my views challenged but in a respectful way, not attacking me personally because that’s just mean
