She is a transphobe and peter thiel fangirl. She is against renewables and thinks that ‘mainstream science’ is just a money making scam. All around dumb bitch who chugged the kool aid.
I used to watch her when, as far as I knew, all she talked about was science (mainly physics) news. You know, talking about the thing she actually studied in.
Then one day she did a “capitalism is actually great” video, and spouted a bunch of erroneous neo-lib bullshit. Thankfully most of the comments tore into her, pointing out the logical falacies and out right lies she was parroting.
I only watched a few more vids after that as she seemed to get more and more out of her area of knowledge and saying dumb shit.
I had no idea about the anti trans stuff though. I’d just stopped watching and written her off as the Nth person to be smart in one area and try and apply that to other areas where they have no expertise but think they know more about it than anyone else.
She has a PhD in theoretical physics. She could not find meaningful employment in particle physics. Unless somebody can correct me, she’s produced little if anything substantive to the field.
In the last several years she has engaged in attacks against the public trust for science. She engages the conspiratorial-minded viewers who’re looking for any reason to disavow scientific knowledge.
One example was putting on scripted theatrics while reading a self-penned letter fraudulently claimed was from a prominent scientist, who’s identity and details of course must be kept totally secret. Reading out this “bombshell letter” was a transparent children’s play, where the held-anonymous writer magically agreed with every one of her endless, bleating refrains, that most scientific research is “bullshit”.
Then her support for Eric Weinstein who is a complete grifting con-man with an “entertainment” publishing that he fraudulently describes as both a “paper” and a credible physical theory. It was literally released on April 1 and directly in it, it tells you it is a work of fiction meant for entertainment, and like all good science (/s) may not be used, incorporated into other works, or improved upon. It’s a complete piece of hogwash, and every credible physicist from here to Mars has described as not fit to wipe fecal matter; not a theory, not even science.
Then there’s all the Theil money.
Check out Professor Dave on YT, he just fucking obliterates her.
Fuck Sabrine Hoffsteader. She’s an idiot and you should get your news from someone else. Stupid grifter
Was really disappointed when she came out to be transphobic.
Do you have some Information about this?

So yeah, fuck her

Thanks for explaining!
Just from the thumbnail alone I was hesitant to check out the video. I’m glad I found this comment.
