      If anything the opposite imo. AFAIK she really adopted the anti feminist anti woke agenda at some point but moved more left over the years, not sure she was ever right wing though.

        From what I understand, she’s a typical “right wing” Atheist.

        She used to be with a youtuber called “Armored Skeptic”. (If you know, you know.)

        Atheists ended up being seen as right wing after sensitivity became a core requirement to be welcome in left wing discourse.

        Completely denying God is Islamophobic, and therefore alt-right.

        And while they are usually accepting of the right to transition, Atheists also tend to not see the mind-over-matter style “I think I am female, therefore I am.” as meaningful, but instead view the biological influence of hormones and the social effects of behavior and clothing to be what makes a transition go from a desire to a materialized reality.

        This is a transphobic way to view transitions, and therefore right wing.

        These days, men like Richard Dawkins have very little influence. Atheism (and anti-theism) peaked around 2010, but after gaining a very bad image there are now few who will self-label as an atheist, even fewer will call themselves anti-theists. They’ll rather say “I’m not religious”, “I’m agnostic”, if not declining to answer completely.

        She’s the non-binary of political identity. Is she left? Is she right? She’ll never tell.
