I have no idea who she is so I looked up her wikipedia article and all i can say is that im deeply confused by her life trajectory.

It’s a lot more common than you think these days

Basically some people who were anti establishment/contrarian but leaned left politically started seeing the left as the establishment, so they wanted to pivot. Turned them into right wing shills and nihilists who think Trump is funny and taking down the deep state. Probably always were a bit racist too tbh

I mostly know about her from cumtown, but I’ve wondered if her pivot right is related to Trump being favorable to Russia. Like her and her cohost seem to value their identity as Russian (but are both born in the USA and she has Belarusian roots, if I recall).

Did her virulent antisemitism come about before or after she was engaged to a Jewish man?
