She’s no activist. She’s a bigot and a billionaire astroturfer. Like a trans-obsessed version of the Koch Brothers or Peter Thiel.
Also, her books don’t hold up when you pay enough attention to notice the racist, antisemitic, anti-irish, pro-slavery, and pro-authoritarianism dog whistles and bullhorns.
im convinced shes the trans version of the gay homophobe trope. she herself is trans masculine but has internalized her transphobia so she hates herself too much to ever admit that and transition. instead she feels the need to stop other trans people who she sees as a reflection of a part of herself she hates and sees as wrong. i dont think this makes her any more sympathetic, just more of a tragic piece of shit.
