Meh[edit]

Eh, article makes her look way more confrontational, entrenched and radical than she is. Also, no mention of edge-lord past. — Unsigned, by: 5.165.61.67 / talk

Then what changes do you propose? RoninMacbeth (talk) 14:00, 3 October 2017 (UTC)
It’s deeply cathartic and hilarious to see the most ardent members of the Woke SJW hard left cult breathe a whisper of dissent against the groupthink only to be lynched for apostasy, though disturbing to see the swiftness with which these maniacs devour their own. --164.39.85.124 (talk) 19:15, 18 November 2022 (UTC)

Parrott[edit]

Hmm, I watched her videos before reading this article, and it felt strange reading it because it keeps using the name Parrott, which she never mention. Is there a rationale behind that choice? 37.168.27.199 (talk) 19:31, 2 June 2018 (UTC)

I suppose it's because it's her real name? --It's-a me, Lgm sigpic.png LeftyGreenMario! 19:43, 2 June 2018 (UTC)
It reads strangely to me, like if Madonna's wikipedia article was all Ciccone did this and Ciccone said that. 77.102.196.238 (talk) 11:07, 18 August 2018 (UTC)
I agree with this. 73.96.159.12 (talk) 17:57, 21 November 2018 (UTC)

Controversy[edit]

Could someone possibly write up Contra's recent controversy regarding nonbinary people? — Unsigned, by: 2601:191:8400:92B0:F076:2CD7:DFAB:9A3B / talk

There is a lack of sources in regards to this section, I've added some to the twitter non-binary twitter controversy.Could we get more sources in regards to both the first section about "The Asthetic" video, and about Marxists-Lenisists view of her? Boimanboi (talk) 14:03, 13 October 2019 (UTC)

I just read this thread here: https://twitter.com/ifeelthewind/status/1190158493740863488. It's a comprehensive response to her Q&A regarding her decision to include Buck Angel in her video, in which she acts like he and her are victims of those mean ol' "radical zoomers" and their intolerance of Old Guard transfolk like her. Really lays out why her performative victimhood is BS. Blitz (Complaints Box) 04:24, 2 November 2019 (UTC)
If nothing else, just refer to this part regarding why Buck Angel is radioactive, and it's not just because he's transmed (which is bad enough IMO): "[Buck Angel] launched a targeted tabloid harassment campaign, outing a trans woman against her will, with the specific intent of causing her physical, emotional, and professional harm." And there is no way an academic like Natalie would conveniently be ignorant of that, since academics know how to research public figures, especially ones they plan to platform.Blitz (Complaints Box) 04:30, 2 November 2019 (UTC)
