LOS ANGELES — Brandi Love is queried by Marlow Stern of The Daily Beast in a recent article about her politically conservative leanings, her support for the current president and her recent column for The Federalist defending the increased interest in OnlyFans during the coronavirus pandemic.
Love's piece was a response to a story by Charlie Peters on The American Conservative website that wondered "if the increased popularity of OnlyFans during America’s coronavirus shutdown might be 'a trend so ghastly you can’t help but sit back and think, would a global Islamic caliphate really be that bad?'"
"Political leanings aside, it is an absurd idea," said a rep for the performer, "as Brandi outlines in her column. Stern agrees, saying the OnlyFans traffic boom 'prompted The American Conservative to, well, lose its goddamn marbles.' Though there seemed to be plenty of room to squabble about politics, Brandi and Stern managed a civil discourse about pornography and how both the left and right handle the industry in America."
Love disagreed with the suggestion that conservatives are more notably anti-porn than progressives.
"The emails and hate I get are equal," she said. "The feminist movement is attached to the left — it’s a 'liberal' movement; you may have some feminists in the conservative movement, but I’ve never met one. They hate me, which seems hypocritical because they push for women to have equal rights and push for women’s power. I have it. I have the power and I’m making the money, and yet they hate me. Go on my Twitter feed, you’ll see. Anytime the far left works with the far right to get something done, which is to abolish porn, we should all be afraid. That is a frightening concept to me."
