Look, I know there’s all kinds of drama going on, especially after the YouTube livestream etc, but this woman is so cool:

• she’s a helicopter pilot, and a really good one. Landing a helicopter on a boat? That’s gotta be tricky stuff.
• she speaks four languages.
• CEO of a environmental ocean protection nonprofit.

She’s super educated, of course; Oxford, preparatory schools, the works. All high marks. Brilliant girl. Computer programmer since her teens, in what, the seventies? Brilliant.
Her dad died suddenly, which really must’ve affected her, and she always suspected he’d been murdered. She overcame anorexia as a girl; one of eight kids.
She dumped a Count, was friends with a prince, but despite being basically royalty, she chooses to protect the oceans and teach (and fly her helicopter!).

So, when this woman is being compared to the devil, when they’re saying she’s harvesting blood from children – they actually believe that – when she’s getting doxxed, when court proceedings were illegally taped by cultists who believed she was a witch with literal magic powers, I just think we should recognize what a rad Lady she is. It takes guts to go through all that.
So, when the régime kidnapped her, it’s no surprise that they’re torturing her— lights on all the time, being kept awake in a tiny room, given a number instead of a name… terrible.

Anyway, everyone seems to be against her, but she’s actually a really strong, smart, resilient girlboss.
