Before Ashley St. Clair Left MAGA, She Learned What Happens to Women Who Speak Up

A couple days ago, I hopped off a train in New York City and sat down with former MAGA influencer Ashley St. Clair for a candid conversation about political identity, radicalization, and what it takes to walk away from a movement that once defined your entire life. Before Ashley St. Clair ever contemplated leaving MAGA, she says she learned a lesson that would shape the next decade of her life: when she spoke up about a sexual assault in college, she lost her community. Years later, as doubts about the movement mounted, she found herself confronting the same terror all over again. Of being alone. Cults begin with loneliness, pray on insecurity and use authoritarian control, victimizing a desire to matter and giving members a reason to. That’s what makes these systems so effective, and what makes understanding them so important. Because if radicalization is fundamentally a human story, then recovery has to be one too.
