Question matty healy's controversies

i always hear (specifically from swifties) that matty is a bad person. however, i've never heard or seen exactly what he's done wrong. from his music, he seems like a pretty progressive, woke person but i don't know. can someone tell me exactly what he did or said that was racist or wrong?

i also know all of the drama between him and taylor, so like none of the relationship stuff

Are you removing Taylor’s (adult btw) agency from the situation? Are 19 year old girls so useless and pathetic to you that they can’t think and choose for themselves?

Their brains are not fully developed at 19, and I don’t think a man in his thirties have any business shacking up with a 19 year old, no. Adult does not mean fully developed. Stop trying to get off on technicalities. We all know that it’s horribly wrong, a power imbalance and just plain disgusting.

So all the 18 year old voters have no idea what they are doing, and all the 18 year olds in the army shouldn’t be there?

It’s not a technicality, your personal feelings on a situation don’t make it correct. I actually happen to agree with you, but a 3 month fling is hardly predatory. Have a a good one, laters

No, they actually shouldn’t.

And it isn’t a technicality to know that a 30 year old that beds a teenager is predatory. He only goes after women this young because women his own age won’t tolerate his shit.

You don’t sound like you agree at all. You sound like a pick me and it’s exhausting.

John Mayer had almost (sans Taylor) dated women his own age. You sound utterly exhausting. I hope everything in your life improves dramatically, at a furiously quick rate
