Interesting that she talked about dealing with criticism in that video and how she often takes things personally; can't help but think it's linked to the rise in negative comments she has been getting. She definitely takes any critique personally - deleting the Minerva Q&A videos, or more recently, just ignoring the criticisms of her uneducated take on capitalism and on her antics during a pandemic. She says she wants to be able to engage in difficult conversations and not take it personally, but then looking at the quotes she has saved on her Notion, e.g. "don't take criticism from someone you wouldn't take advice from" and "it's not about you, it's about them" makes me think she is adopting the classic influencer mindset of categorising anyone who critiques you as a hater. I could be reading too much into it but the stuff she has written like "smallest viable audience <3" makes me think she doesn't think it's her core audience that is having trouble with her recent content, but that it's random people that are attacking her. But I think it was clear that lots of the comments on that Q&A video for example were coming from long-time followers of hers - her followers haven't stayed GCSE/A-Level students forever, and they're gonna challenge you and call you out and your BS sometimes.
