Some background in her own words:
In an interview with Teen Vogue, Dasha explained what the interview was like. âWhen I realized I was on Infowars, I was excited because I figured they would say something crazy and funny,â she said. âIt wasnât hard to âownâ Ashton because nothing she said made sense or even followed a logical train of thought. I was honestly stunned when she started talking about rats, so a lot of whatâs happening with me in the video is sheer bewilderment.â
She also explained her âworms in your brainsâ comment: âWhen I said, âI just want people to have healthcare, honey,â one of their reporters said off-camera, âThatâs what Hugo Chavez said,ââ Dasha said. âAnd when I looked in their eyes, they seemed so sick and crazy, like they had parasites in their brain that were making them say all this stupid, confused sh*t.â
Dasha went on to share why she expressed her support for free universal healthcare, saying, âAs an uninsured person, I feel personally victimized by the idea that anyone should be denied healthcare. Poor people shouldnât get sick and die because they canât afford to see a doctor, obviously,â she said. She also made a point to distinguish her socialist beliefs from mainstream liberalism.
âWhen Infowars posted the clip on YouTube, they titled it âLiberals Defend Socialism at Bernie Sanders Event,ââ she said. âIt seems like there is a lot of conservative confusion and conflation of âliberalâ and âleftist.â
âIâm a democratic socialist and a Bernie supporter and believe in things like wealth redistribution and socialized healthcare,â she said. âIâm not even an especially political or radical person â I read Marx in college, which affirmed my views that capitalism is evil and responsible for many of our social ills, which feels to me like common sense having experienced poverty.â
An Infowars post appears to indicate that the original video of Dasha has been removed. But Dasha wanted to make sure future generations could see her answers.
âI posted the video on my Twitter for posterity,â she said, âand I thought it was funny [that] they took it down because theyâre such failures.â
