My understanding is that through her experience, she has developed a career around analysing cults (as well as other things) which is great! We need that in the world.
However she has unfortunately missed the areas where her expertise would be really insightful (SV itself basically) and taken this weird tack. Dunning Kruger be like that sometimes
