No lol. Watch her video on transmedicalism, she very clearly isn't.
She's made some tweet to the effect of "kids these days are nutty with the gender" and underatge twitter users decided it meant their internet best friend had betrayed them.
Okay but the thing is that Natalie understands production value. No wet faced logo t-shirt wearing messy hair with a backdrop of anime posters here. Contrapoints is a fancy production. It has lighting.
She's a gigantic lib of course but no, not truscum.
She made the very dumb decision to let Buck Angel voice on her videos. She also tweeted about how she felt a generational disconnect with younger Trans people who feel they can be more fluid with presentation (she thinks that is a good thing), and Twitter invented a Contrapoints and argued against it.
I mean, the Buck Angel thing was more than just featuring him in a video, she then pretended that the only bad thing he'd ever done was to out Lana Wachowski back in the early 00s(and strawmanned all her critics as anime nazis for caring about it) and also said that because Buck Angel is like a "trans legend" or something we cant tell him to fuck off for being a rampant quisling and transmedicalist.
Yeah she didn't really engage with the criticism of Buck Angel. He's a huge piece of shit and she (kinda) defended him. She did acknowledge other problems with what he said about non-binary people, etc, but in the context of hand-waving it all away, like "yeah he's wrong about this, why do you care so much?"
But the context was that she was at the center of a Twitter witch hunt because of a 15 second voice clip in one of her videos, which didn't endorse or even mention any of Buck's problematic views. People were hounding random other YouTubers just for being friendly with her, even if they had nothing to do with the controversy. It was crazy.
Isnt contra a truscum or something

That would require me watching breadtubers - I get all my info on her from r/transgendercirclejerk and I will never watch breadtube
fair enough

Yeah her doubling down wasn't a great moment
What, no? She’s had some controversy using Buck Angel as a voice actor, but I don’t think she herself has a had too* many issues.
I remember some controversy about how she talked about how performative gender can be, which I think some people had issues with.
Please, don’t take my word as gospel truth, I’m just a cissy who thinks she’s got some good points, even though she’s not hella left
Lefties be infighting
I don't see any leftists in this fight
