Depends on how much she's had to drink.

It really feels like people hate on her way more than they should. Can someone explain to me where it's all coming from? I read some of her trans statements and honestly they weren't that bad. If feels too me like on a scale of 1 to 10, the hate should be at a 3, but it always seems to be at an 8 or 9. WTF?
The main problem, as I see it, is not that her literal statements if made policy would be the most extreme in today's overton window. The problem is that she's made herself the face of transphobia by putting herself in the center of it. She's taken her preexisting fame and used it to push her (admittedly not extreme) transphobia. When people say "name a transphobe," they think of her -- and this was her clear intention.
Because she has fame and power, she probably does the most direct damage to trans people overall. More than Jordan Peterson, etc.
