I couldn’t be within 50 feet of Hillary Clinton without attempting to strangle her and screaming “This is for the Libyan people”

Maybe I’m just built different or maybe I’m not a liberal

You think you can defeat my argument with a pig shitting on its own balls? That’s a logical fallacy!

You’re right, Natalie, it’s just a signpost to indicate nobody should take you seriously or listen to you

I used to like some of her stuff, but it’s gotten so long winded and high brow I really can’t understand half of what she’s talking about. My eyes just glaze over.

As her video production progressed i feel like she put less effort into writing and a lot more into set design and costumes

Probably so she could write off clothing on her taxes as a business expense.

They cut a bunch of her stuff out of the doc, they just wanted to use her as a trans millennial face

True, but if only there was some way for her to realise that the Hollywood machinery of the Democratic party might use her… If only her naivety didn’t force her to embrace that oppurtunity to be an apologist for the worst of the status quo and box her into being a post-left grifter. If only…

I wouldn’t call her post left, she is still miles better than Red Scare or Amy Terese and still making content that gets libs to think a little more leftward

Perhaps it’s sematics, but I don’t think she was ever really on the left (even in the US-centric online space) and she’s spent the last couple of years entwined with the Democrats and punching left agains even mild US-soc dems. Even within an American politics online person capacity I’d argue she’s already in her post-left pivot and will only go further.

“Red Scare or Amy Terese” should not be the benchmark.

Did you not see her Vote Blue video? She spits on the left and advocating for liberal cognitive dissonance does not actually help people become communists. That’s just some combination of tailism and cope.

It was always going to be like that, maybe she had some Westwing style dream where if she was just able to convince Hillary she would change who she’s been her entire life - or maybe contra was just excited that that meant she made it. Neither were true.

I am sure she said a lot of thoughtful stuff to Hillary that got cut out of the released version like Homer’s Poochie speech.

I’m not trying to be a dick, but who could have possibly predicted that?

And then naturally the move is to double down on a load of scratched lib shit and democrat punching left.

Personally, if I was fucked over by the machinery of a political party that I (somehow as a supposed leftist) didn’t see coming, that might inspire oppositon in me rather than establishment media oppurtunity.

I fully accept being seen as a dick: This was obvious and imagining she was being bamboozled is childish. Cutting together videos is her fucking career and we’re supposed to pretend that she’s so braindead that she thinks Hillary would give her a platform to say anything other than what Hillary finds acceptable? No, she wants the fucking clout and the money by being appealing to VoteBlues
