    Oh yeah, I it was already weird for people to excuse her (lacking) political worldview when she was 16. Makes even less sense now. But from a social aspect, it’s important to remember that she’s still a rather young neurodivergent woman in a political environment that usually doesn’t receive either of those, despite liberals claiming to be so progressive. I mentioned her age there only because she’s surrounded by people who might have twice her age so it’s natural for her to look out-of-place. So many comments against her person (and not her bland ideology) can at best fail to take this context into account and at worse be malicious.

    It’s always best to take care with that and be aware of it. I really wouldn’t enjoy people assuming they can read my body language in a picture for instance.
