points to remember:

• nicki minaj was making an excellent point about how we as a society worship and promote content that excludes women who are anything except white and slim
  
• she was not shading taylor. she was shading the way we think and how HER content as an artist is not given the appreciation it deserves because of that
• taylor jumped in and made it about herself
• she shifted the focus from the important issue nicki was bringing up to what the media will term a “feud” between the two
• taylor using the “stop pitting women against each other” phrase was completely irrelevant and an obvious way of using feminism to deflect criticism of her
• taylor was WRONG. being her fan does not make it okay to defend her when she is wrong
