I mean her parents would drive to NY for singing and acting lessons, the family relocated to Nashville to enable her carrer, paid for private school, beautiful homes… by all accounts her family provided a strong foundation for her to launch.
She’s been supported throughout her life, calling the way she was raised an “asylum” is kind of insulting to people that grew up wondering if there would be food on the table or if Dad was coming home angry again. Not to minimize her struggles but I’m willing to bet most people could actually last an hour
I mean that sounds like it could be a story about super supportive parents, or it sounds like it could be a story about super psycho pageant mom type parents.
Even if it’s the former and they were genuinely supporting her dream and not their own, it still doesn’t mean it wasnt manic or stressful or crazy.
Or it could just be a made up fictional lyric, or one meant to reference her own internal psychological struggles with the asylum she’s trapped in being her own mind.
This meme quite frankly just seems like people who don’t understand music trying and failing to clown on the popular girl.
If you just compare your life to some of the worst off then yeah, no one ever gets to complain about anything.
This whole outrage is misunderstanding the fact that people can have problems, especially perceive themselves as having problems, that are on their own scale and not comparable to the world at large. Also her songs are written to be relatable to some extent and not just 100% autobiographical so more people can envision their own problems and circumstances. But that’s like, 99% of music so it feels weird to say it.
I mean, asylums aren’t known to be horrible because of the quality of the architecture, but how people treat other people in there.

When people write songs are the lyrics always supposed to be literally true? There’s some interesting stuff happening out there if so…
Can’t believe Johnny Cash actually shot a man in Reno, just to watch him die.
That fucker didn’t even hang. Music’s fucking gay bro
GWAR about to serve 800 life sentences.

She treats people horribly.
A lot of people treat others horribly.
Maybe we’re all just shit.
Our goal should be to resist and overcome those harmful instincts. That’s kinda the purpose of ethics/morality
Whereas her “art” seems to encourage us to give into our base impulses of vindictiveness, scorn, petty jealousy, grudges, etc.
Not a very Christlike role model. Which is ironic given the protestant religious/cultural upbringing of much of her fanbase
