I’m not a Taylor Swift fan nor do I closely follow pop culture but I really appreciated reading this analysis. It has not occurred to me to think how some fandoms can have the characteristics of belonging you described. I am curious about the story behind the rituals arising between the fans in the way they did. Also would you say that Swift’s modeling of caring for others got reflected in how fans care for each other?
