Damn Natalie you used to be coolish what the entire fuck happened?

[–] FunkyStuff@hexbear.net 58 points 2 years ago (2 children)

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.

When was she cool (I'm ignorant of how she became popular)

[–] axont@hexbear.net 26 points 2 years ago (1 children)

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 zelensky-pain was hoping this was only a thing in novels

Maybe the Baltimore video

tbf I posted a video of her playing The Frog Galliard on harpsichord just because I thought it was pretty dope.
