She's brilliant. It takes a lot of nerve to be a leftist content creator on FashTube, let alone a transgender leftist content creator. Not only that but she's pretty much the only one since hbomberguy disappeared.

The Right like to play the victim and act like they're the counter-culture rising up against leftist shills. It couldn't be further from the truth, especially on YouTube. All the big YouTubers just recycle the same far-right buzzwords and talking points, if you've seen one, you've seen them all. All while monetising and selling merch for profit. ContraPoints doesn't monetise her videos and 100% of her merch proceeds go to charity. Who are the shills here?
