I've never heard of her before. Her content seems odd to me. Like the kind of political YouTuber that doesn't actually know what they're talking about.

Before I probably invest way too much time into it, can someone give me a rundown of the kinds of views she espouses? Fairly balanced or leaning really far to one side?

Are you really asking for a balanced analysis of her views on lemmy? Lol. You might as well ask on Reddit. Nobody is ever left leaning enough for people on either site, so you’re going to see a lot of people calling her alt right, MAGA, whatever.

I used to watch her. She claims left/moderate depending on the day but is about as “moderate” as Tim Poole

That’s pretty accurate. She claims to be left wing, and a fan of Bernie Sanders but she frequently repeats alt-right talking points and conspiracy theories. She does a lot of that thing that a lot of right-wing online personalities do in paying lip service towards being a centrist “I MaKe FuN oF bOtH sIdEs”, but really ending up making the right look far more reasonable than the left the majority of the time. She’s also good friends with the conservative pick-me YouTuber Blaire White.

She became popular around the time of gamergate largely (imo) because she says a lot of the things those types like — makes a lot of videos ridiculing feminists etc — and is a somewhat conventionally attractive woman. So gamers^TM^ can convince themselves they don’t hate all women and all women don’t hate them because here’s one who agrees with them and “she [supposedly] isn’t even right wing”.

Men are disposable and I don't think that's ever going to change. The best think to do is aquire useful skills and use that to live a happy life.
