A trans [=YouTuber=] who does vlogs and makeup tutorials giving lifestyle tips for trans women. Once an intersectional feminist debating [=TERFs=], she's now become an islamophobic Trump supporter, and thinks appealing to conservatives is the most important goal of trans politics - in order to be seen as "normal".

* MissingStepsPlan: A big part of the ''Voting'' video is going over just how thoroughly she falls into this. For instance, for all her calls to revolution she's put zero thought or effort into assembling or equipping a Red Army even though she knows for a fact that her right-wing equivalents are heavily armed and organized. The actual military doesn't seem to factor into her thinking at all.

* RichKidTurnedSocialActivist: Tabby is a representation of the stereotypical left wing activist furry transgender woman ([[StealthPun her nickname even comes the Sabo-Tabby]]), and implicitly has (or prior to transitioning had) the same upper-middle class background as most of Natalie Wynn's characters. Deconstructed in that she has difficulty explaining anything without obtuse academic jargon, and gets criticised for starting violence that she might not be as likely to suffer the consequences of (since despite being trans and dressing as a CatGirl, she's still upper class, white and passes well).
