the current vibe and like what's ascendant and like what's culturally ascended in terms of belief systems and she she was so liberal at this time because that's what was yeah that's what was dominating totally but I but I will say like this blog didn't have a readership frankly Candace Owens to be extremely clear had no audience she was essentially an anonymous person so like I do think this was actually an honest reflection of what her politics were at the time and
Yeah, I mean, she does never come across as someone with like a super firm backbone.
I really am so grateful for whoever internet archived the entire Degree 180 website because one of the other gems I found on it is this video interview of her.
It's titled Get to Know Our CEO.
And they're just asking like random, like meaningless, like what Disney princess would you be BuzzFeed-esque questions?
And I want to show you how she answered that question.
I mean, she knows from the beginning that she is pretty.
And you know what?
Say what you want about all of like the women with Mar-a-Lago face.
It does not seem like Candace Owens has ever gotten a lot of work done.
She's been really pretty from the beginning.
Good for her.
Should we talk about social autopsy?
This is when things begin to go off the rails.
So in 2016, as a 26-year-old, with the help of her team at Degree 180, Candice launches a Kickstarter for a new website she plans to call Social Autopsy.
Do you want to explain the premise of what Social Autopsy was?
Yeah, the idea was that she would make this website that connected people who left anonymous mean comments online to their actual identity and their employers so you could get them fired.
Which, in a lot of ways, like, you know, rest in peace social autopsy, you would have loved Palantir.
Candice puts up a Kickstarter campaign to raise $75,000 to create this website.
I have no idea how she could have established the technology she was trying to get with $75,000.
