Philosophy Tube. After she transitioned, she's pretty much talked about nothing except trans issues and went more blatantly to the left.
After she transitioned, she started talking about being trans? The nerve
She can do that, it is 100% her right, and I can understand a celebratory phase. But to me, personally, that quickly becomes uninteresting.
It's all fine. I can do something else and I'm sure she'll survive without my ad-blocked views.
I've no problem with the trans and lefty commentary, I find that stuff fascinating...
Who is miss is Oliver. Abigail is nice, but I identified with Oliver in a lot of ways. I can't identify with Abigail. I wish they could have cloned/split into 2 people.
Check out the Carefree Wandering vids that use Abigail, coincidentally right before and after her transition, as an example of how philosophy is commodified by influencers, and some of the interesting things around identity and how it impacts the content etc.
This one? https://youtu.be/0RmJO2IwHek
That's the one!
Yeah, I suppose this happened to me as well. She's a good actor.
I don't think she knows the subject matter enough a lot of the time and is part of this weird commodification of philosophy happening. The political angle never bothered me.
