Damn Natalie you used to be coolish what the entire fuck happened?
Was she really? AFAIK almost all her content was focused on deconstructing bigotry and far right rhetoric, some light feminist criticism, that kind of thing. I'm grateful for her videos, though, I'd probably be a tradcath if it wasn't for her. But it was never radical, or asserting any form of praxis.
Most of her videos denounce praxis entirely. She has an entire cat girl strawman character who's used to mock activists.
her video on "the west" was good for where I was at the time, I haven't watched her shit since the massive fit of nb-phobia
All the Patreon $$
"I make the videos, I swipe the caaard."
no actual ideology
When was she cool (I'm ignorant of how she became popular)
She got popular initially through some high effort video essays on fascists and how to identify them. Over time her videos became more navel gazy and more personal, much more focused on herself. Lots of extravagant costumes and stuff.
Despite her earlier videos deconstructing fascism her diagnosis for the problem always centered around trying to appeal to ivy League educated rich white liberals
The relentlessly navelgazey white millenial trans woman
was hoping this was only a thing in novels
Maybe the Baltimore video
I've literally never seen any reference to contrapoints that wasn't on here, calling out shit libbery
tbf I posted a video of her playing The Frog Galliard on harpsichord just because I thought it was pretty dope.
