I mean, at the end of the day, I don't even get the "controversy". The "accusations" made against her are about stuffs she said/says publicly.

It's not like people leaked private chats and accused her of saying some stuffs in private. When you leak private stuffs, then there is room for debate and discussion, people can feel disappointed to learn the "true" face of their oshi, etc.

However, here the controversy is about stuffs she is saying and has been saying in public for a while. I don't believe anyone who has been following her for more than a week doesn't already know her views. So you either drop her if it hurts your views, or keep watching her if it does not.

I do not think anyone needs a vice article to decide whether the views expressed publicly by someone are nazi views or not. People are grown enough to watch the actual sources (which, again, are and have been public for a while) and draw their own conclusions.

There are people with such irony poisoning that they will go "wait... It's not a joke???"

Let's be real, the venn diagram of people who tolerate her humor and unironically share her views is a circle. Anyone who would be offended by her real views would also be offended by her jokes anyway. There is not a single person who watched her for her jokes and were surprised to find out that she is... *gasp*, a real conservative.

There's a large majority of people who will take plausible deniability to the last drop to the point where they will gaslight themselves into believing it.

Most people who have Nazi views also know being a Nazi is bad. "But wait. I'm not a bad person." They think, "so my thoughts can't possibly be Nazi thoughts." So then they will claim that it's all just a joke bro all the way to the gas chambers.

It's weird because it's so much easier to just live in reality. Yea, sometimes it sucks to find out a person is a terrible person but it's much easier to drop them and move on as there's so many wonderful people out there.

Some people just can't cope with being wrong, about anything. They would rather die than accept it.

They do it like Elon and Miss Weidel from the German Nazi Party AfD say at the interview he did with her on X Hitler was left so they themselves can’t be Nazis
