The regressive far-left has lost Ana. That's how insane they are these days. She didn't left the democrat party. The democrat party left her when it embraced left-wing radicalism, lawlessness, and put the interests of the fringe minorities over the interest of Americans. She has nothing to apologize for.

i agree with Ana 100%, the online left is absolutely unhinged and I went through a similar thing where I thought they were 'my side' and allowed them to influence my beliefs and actions. im not sure where Ana is gonna go from here, (not sure why everyone is saying she is turning to the right wing, there is no indication of that) but i still identify as a left wing liberal and divorcing myself from that community has allowed me to think a lot more clearly about what I believe and to be less afraid of "wrongthink."

Wish I found comments and people like yourself back in 2020 when I decided to “leave the left”. I think I’m now centre left leaning mainly. I left due to being attacked in the group by what I now know are far left people for pointing out r wording attacks happening more in my country and it was being done by people coming to this country from other countries .. I got met with “it’s karma for what your country did” and I’m far right (they knew I wasn’t I’d been in their groups for a long time) and “your white what did you expect to happen to you all your evil” and “that never happened your a liar” (despite showing evidence it did happen) it’s when comments like that start I then thought I can’t be a part of this no more and stopped in the middle of 2020. Now do I support the right ? Not really as they are just insane and don’t care about people like me and my background. But I also don’t always fall into the left anymore as it feels like it’s been hijacked by online far left groups that ruin the image of the left as a whole and the right uses that to “prove their point” I hope this makes sense and I apologise for the long comment. Just felt nice seeing comments being somewhat understanding of why people like me felt the way we did.

[@EnderSword]

I don't think that's really true though, I've been watching them since the early 2000s, and I don't think the overall beliefs of her, Cenk, Ben, Michael, like the core older members have changed much at all, they were never extreme social leftists, they were never the 'Regressive' left type of people who cared if things were offensive or whatever. They were economically left but not communistic, anti-war, stuff like that. But they were never in the camp of like compelled speech and DEI hires and Oppression olympics type politics. I think TYT is in the area where they used to be the most left wing thing on the internet, and they stayed almost exactly where they were, but now people have moved to the extreme left of that position and those people have bigger platforms.

[@dishonoredundead]

Yeah, that's why it's infuriating she's pretending as if she had no choice to but to be bias and cultish all this time. The majority of their audience told them not to behave that way in the comments under every video, the Right, and independents told them not to as well, they just kept going like that until she could use that as an excuse to switch teams for more money. Maybe she could argue TYT forced her to behave this way to maintain employment, but she's not, and it's very unlikely she will because it would make other companies hesitant to work with her. So it's just her blaming an entire party, for her getting it wrong. I could care less if the left lost one ex extremist bimbo, just the way she's doing it is aggravating AF.

[@DayOldNewsNight]

Ana's recent positioning seems less like an opportunistic move and more like a genuine attempt to call for change. While many, including Destiny and the commenters here might believe she's positioning herself for personal gain, her vocal divestment could actually be seen as an effort to rally the left into betterment. This contrasts with Destiny's "the left left me" narrative but also compliments it. Instead of grifting, Ana may be trying to address issues within the left and push for reform.

How does her leaving the left somehow = her becoming and believing exactly what she used to oppose? She said clearly that she is NOT switching sides. The name of her thing is LITERALLY “Unaligned”.

Assuming she's now Dave Rubin or Arielle Scarcella is exactly the two-box mindset I hoped Destiny would fight against. I don't feel aligned with the Left? All of a sudden I embrace 100% of what the Right says. What? She's not doing that.

[@neilpinard7884]

I think this movement is very similar to at least two other TYT hosts who left the show-Dave Ruben and Jimmy Dore. Both started out by using almost exactly the same points Ana has expessed with this piece. Neither of them went straight to the right, it took Years. Ana will find that she will have a smaller audience with this change and, IMO, will fully move to the right as the others did. I watched TYT for years, and one thing was constant with her- constant complaining that she couldn't make the same kind of money as those on the right. I believe she will move fully to conservative within ten years. This is just the beginning.

@Prometheus4096 Ana Kasperian was talking about government medical forms/papers where they want to refer to women in "gender nuetral" terms in order not to offend transgender people so instead of calling women "women" and "mothers" they call them "birthing people" or "birthing person." So Ana expressed on a show that it was offensive to her. Trans staff at TYT got angry and there was a lot of drama about it.

[@Prometheus4096]

@@tanyaroberson9629 Exactly. She was never called a 'birthing person'. People giving birth in a medical & legal context were. It was getting fake offended because she is a moron. Trans staff at TYT knew she was anti Trans. It wasn't just this comment. Birthing person has nothing to do with trans issues. Two cis gender woman can have a baby, and only one of them actually gives birth to it. Not both, because they are woman. Birthing person isn't a gender neutral synonym for woman. It refers to the person giving birth to the baby the document talks about. Words have meanings. That matters. Especially in government documents with legal or medical consequences.

[@snoski]

EXACTLY. Using "Birthing person," "person with a uterus," and "person who menstruates" to refer to the group of people that include ciswomen and transmen (i.e. people who were assigned female at birth) is disgustingly exclusionary to the following (probably not exhaustive) list of people: 1) ciswomen and transmen who cannot have children 2) ciswomen and transmen who don't want to have children 3) ciswomen and transmen who have had miscarriages 4) pregnant ciswomen or transmen who aren't actively giving birth 5) ciswomen and transmen who have had hysterectomies 6) ciswomen and transmen who do not menstruate The whole idea of using these phrases is to find some way to elegantly and inclusively refer to the group of people that were "assigned female at birth," but it is disgustingly *EXclusionary* instead. These phrases should only be used in a medical context to refer specifically to those people with those EXACT characteristics, but the phrases ARE being used outside of those contexts. Just because people say they aren't being used outside of those contexts does not make that assertion true. The reason documents (and some people) are moving away from the phrase "assigned female at birth" is because there is a growing trend of doctors and parents no longer even assigning a gender at birth. So using that phrase might offend some people. These documents are trying to find a way to not offend these people, but they haven't found a way to elegantly do so, and so they have negligently resorted to phrases that are even more disgusting and exclusionary.

The Quran is just as filled with nonsense as the Bible, yet Liberals never attack me for criticizing the Bible. And that's just the start. There will be tons of disagreements with Liberals. I would expect no less. We're mostly smart, reasoned people who are often working to address the problems of the past, and finding better ways for us to all not just coexist, but be happy. The pendulum will swing too far one way, then too far the other. We also have our mob.

And you're obviously still not getting what he's saying. Example, a hardcore opiate addict could take 100 norco (pills) a day and you as an observer, would never even know they were on anything (believe it or not, it's true), let alone high & they wouldn't be anywhere close to ODing. While a "NORMAL PERSON" meaning NOT a addict with a HIGH TOLERANCE, would most certainly OD from WAY less than 100 pills. So the amount in his system doesn't really matter without knowing what his tolerance at the time was. Additionally, since (as you say) he apparently had meth in his system too, I would fair to guess that this wasn't a new thing for him or a fun new drug he was just now trying out lol.

Tbh, I mostly agree with the content of the Ana Kasperian article, but it's still a pretty big red flag that she felt the need to make this an official announcement/declaration, and that the reasons she gave for her new official outlook were basically all "leftists online were mean to me, personally". I mean Destiny has clearly gone against leftist consensus too, with stuff like defending Kyle Rittenhouse, defending Israel, or being opposed to professional trans women in sports, and even had personal animus toward people who attacked him for it and continues to feud with them, but he didn't need to make some grand announcement that he was henceforth no longer a part of the left. Same for someone like Matt Yglesias who became less left wing over time and now really pisses off a lot of leftists, but who is still clearly not a conservative and doesn't pander to the right. I think that's what makes this feel more like she's gunning for some major political realignment, and it will be based on who is being nice to her rather than any kind of re-examination of facts or learning new information.

[@TonyMezaXD]

I guess I’m more of a progressive leftist, and all those things you listed piss me off about Destiny but you are certainly right. Destiny stopped calling himself “on the left” and used terms like center left or liberal. But no major announcement. Its like she skipped going from a progressive/leftist to a moderate liberal to just being a centrist Or unaligned, which is just stupid or weird, because theoretically she still mostly agrees with progressives. It seems she is clearly angling for something else.

​​@@TonyMezaXDtbh I mostly disagree with him on those things too, but it's more the point that it feels like those are just his sincere beliefs, rather than going the way of guys like Dave Rubin, Tim Pool, Russel Brand, Glen Greenwald, Jimmy Dore, etc. where they just completely pivot to pandering to the opposite side instead, and even if they do still hold some left wing beliefs, they keep that shit quiet and don't ever butt heads with their new right wing family over it. He's not using it as a jumping off point to redefine his entire personality and play nice with every right winger after getting attacked from the left. There's a lot of stuff I don't agree with Destiny on, but I at least feel like if it's something he's spent time forming a full opinion on, then it will be driven by some research and grounded principles and not just trying to pander to a tribe

2016: Rubin joins the right 2024: Anna joins the right 2032: Cenk?

[@seanwhelan6960]

I don’t think Cenk will ever leave the left, he’s not always my cup of tea, but he is a consistent progressive.

[@babyamyxo-o6c]

Cenk came from the right. He was apparently a Republican in college. Destiny was also a conservative, btw.

[@fabiofernandes9122]

i wonder why that is the case.

[@seanwhelan6960]

@@fabiofernandes9122 you’re raised in a conservative area, then you get out into the world and you see that conservative policies are BS. You see the deep hypocrisy that undermines a good for me but not for thee ideology. 1st time I could vote was 04, voted W. It was the 1st and last time I’ll ever vote republican!

People who change their political ideology because other people who share that ideology bullied you have weak constitution. If you cannot defend your principles in spite of those bullies then you are unprincipled.

[@chiquitafeldberg8259]

Oh like how JFK was also bullied, the democrats have been trying to put him in jail also, he's still got his principled ideas intact.

[@paulf3]

Who did that though? Is saying you don't identify with a group of people that is a fraction of the people on your side of the political spectrum changing your political ideology? This guy even covers how he did the exact same thing in this video but it was different because he's special.

[@mukkaar]

Basically, she somehow only now at this point in her life realized there are some unhinged people that share her broad political leaning, especially online ;D I would like to say congrats for finally realizing this and growing up, but she it doesn't seem like she did. She just went reactionary.

[@americancrimejournal]

Let's make this simple. It was a TYT business decision to appeal to the right wing apparatus.

[@kolanos]

Love Destiny pretending he has any principles other than whatever the establishment wants right now.

[@brytondrums5168]

RFK Jr., Tulsi Gabbard, Ana... it's clear that the sentiment they share is a common one. Dems are in for it, and deserve it.

The right can have literally every single one of the lunatics you listed. Ana may not be a lunatic but they can have her, too.

There really isn’t “online politics” anymore. The stuff online is basically real life stuff now. Social media essentially drives a lot of talking points now.

"Ana has left the "left" that no one could have seen coming." I saw it right after her debate with Ben Shapiro. I left Ana. She didn't leave me. Unsubscribe from tyt years ago because of "Ana. I saw the writing on the wall

[@kubush]

Destiny, what is the definition of progressive that you use that you don't identify with it? Because as far as I can tell your views are all progressive. Seems to me like you are doing what Ana is doing. But I could be wrong. It's possible that the label has moved on from why I originally adopted it. Isn't this the problem with political labels? They are all vague. And when you are on these arbitrary lines you can justify being in or out of the group when in fact you are still in line with 98% of the ideology in that group?
