Taylor Swift: Don’t know what else to do

I'm sure Scooter Braun, who's likely got a net worth more than Taylor Swift, is going to be OK. He can take care of himself and doesn't need you to defend him.

Nobody is bullying anybody here.

I honestly don’t particularly care for either party — neither Swift nor her former managers.

I just don’t want to find my niece writing hate mail because Taylor Swift asked her to. To that extent, it’s not the bullying or the bullied that I worry about, it’s the normalization of bullying as a behavior.

Swift has a contractual agreement in which she doesn't like one of the terms of the agreement. Rather than offering Scooter Braun something he wants in exchange for an exception she is calling on her fans to publicly apply pressure on him. This does come across as good-faith negotiation tactics to me.

Your argument is essentially "It's ok to use dirty and deceptive tactics against people with more net worth than you." Why is that acceptable to you?

The words "dirty and deceptive tactics" are yours.

I just don't worry about people with 9 figure net worths arguing over inconsequential things.
