She seems like a cool woman who would be wonderful to talk to... but, this is a bad idea. You don't have "comings out" for political opinions, they aren't an innate trait.

CENSORSHIP. This woman needs to be campaigning against censorship, both classic censorship of the press and the puritanical self-censorship that leftists/liberals engage in (not sure what they're called in the U.K.)

It's like pulling teeth trying to get a middle aged American Democrat to read a "bad" article from a "bad" source, regardless of how vital the information in it is. You'd get a Baptist to read Lolita first. Liberal Americans are now like a solid year behind on a lot of news stories because they won't engage with outside thought.

The first couple of minutes on this video follow her detailing mistaken beliefs she held due to censorship of criticism of transwomen. I knew Caitlyn Jenner wasn't a woman, not because I'm the realest or a great intellectual thinker, but because I had already plugged into GC circles online before that happened. I was Catholic before that, and Catholic bloggers and columnists were already fisking trans ideology on a regular basis around 2012-ish. They were making most of the same arguments around that time that this woman makes in this video, a decade later. Because it's true!
