First the video shitting on trans people and now this. The trajectory is exactly the same.

    Quite sad because it is a channel I otherwise enjoy and I do find her commentary useful obviously in science but even “adjacent” areas like climate change etc she wasn’t this level of bad.

    Now given first she makes a video effectively “preemptively” apologizing and dismissing criticism and then this shit, sigh I don’t know, just sad and disappointing. The fact the two most recent videos are so tightly correlated I think makes it clear she is trying to diversify and is now also trying to make this transition by slowly driving away even liberals and just going all in on her personality cult.

    I’ll also go against some of the comments here because this sort of content is extremely out of touch with her viewers IMO even with the liberal types its at fucking 14k-8k ration in 24h.

    I’m not sure where exactly it went wrong on her content pipeline, it is extremely puzzling.

    The people that want to be told capitalism is great are fucking boomers in general, those that want to feel less guilty about destroying the world etc, specially Dem voters in the US. But that is not her viewership and besides she isn’t even in the US anyway.

    The millennial/gen X types are obviously not leftist enough to be socialist but are definitely “left” enough to see a photo of a black child starving in Africa and not go smiling and saying “yep Capitalism is extremely successful, yep 100% agree science lady”.

    As I said very surprising how out of touch she is with this one.
