          She has come out as pro LGBT, anti trans then pro trans, anti BLM and Pro BLM, pro gamergate, anti feminist then anti-anti feminist, pro Bernie, anti Trump but then Trump apologist. She was heavily involved in the right wing “rational skeptics” Youtube scene that was the forefather of todays alt right pipeline. She had a memorable episode listed in the wiki with one of them where she agreed with admitted pedophile milo yinnepolois that Leslie jones “looked like an ape,” a very common racist trope that got the above pedophile banned from old twitter.

          That sounds like a right winger chasing trends and public opinion, ala Grimes, not someone “socially conservative.” Someome playing all sides, or at least trying to.

          Anyway about it, it’s someone who says they are a “social democrat” while repeating tons of alt right rhetoric. At best, shes very, very confused. At the worst, she just says what keeps making her money from conservatives.

          Joe Rogan has also said he supports Bernie.

          You think Joe rogan is left wing too just because he larped as a Bernie supporter at one point?

      She’s a centrist populist so the left and right both hate her (for different reasons).
