No context to what she meant by this. I feel bad for her, however, to the extent that the adults around her are using a teen to give the face they want to the policies they advocate. She doesn't have the life experience to understand remotely the repercussions of what she speaks. In the past, that would have ruled her out as a serious voice. But we no longer care if voices are serious, only if they agree with what the powers want. She's a mascot, and of course, being as young as she is, she has no point of comparison to realize the way she is being used is disgusting. The right does the same thing, of course, but currently the right aren't the ones reaching for absolute global domination. It's the left we need to focus on.
