ABOUT ME
vanessa rosa
I started out as a full-time Twitch streamer, building an online persona around gaming and entertainment. But in July 2019, one viral tweet flipped my world upside down—sparking controversy, particularly from black leftists, which led to my cancellation and a personal downward spiral.Instead of staying silent, I went searching for the truth. That search forced me to confront a harsh reality: everything I believed about being Black in America—that we are permanent victims in a racist system—was a lie crafted by the progressive left to keep us divided, dependent, and easily controlled.Now, I use my voice to challenge groupthink, spark honest conversations, and fight for TRUTH in a culture that doesn’t always want to hear it.
"Rather than capitulation, Vanessa entered into combat with cancel culture and came out alive."
2a advocacy
A few years back, I was brand-new to firearms—hard to imagine now, considering where I stand today. I wasn’t just casually anti-gun, either. I was a full-blown, radical leftist who genuinely believed every talking point about guns: more laws would stop crime and anyone who owned one lacked empathy for victims of gun violence.But the truth was—I had never even handled a firearm. I had all the opinions in the world, yet ZERO firsthand experience! That realization hit me hard. How could I be so confident in a stance built entirely on fear?So I decided to challenge myself. Instead of repeating what I’d been told, I stepped into the gun community with the intention to learn.Since then, I’ve earned my certification as a Range Safety Officer and now serve as the Rhode Island State Director for Women for Gun Rights, a national network of women standing firm for America’s freedoms.My goal is to eventually become a firearms instructor so I can give people something I never had: a clear, honest perspective on gun safety from someone who once believed the anti-gun narrative.

rippaverse
"Both Gothix and The Rippaverse share a commitment to challenging the norm. Whether it’s in the world of commentary or comics, she’s always ready to push boundaries and spark meaningful conversations. Together, we’re going to keep shaking things up—in the best way possible!"
"...being part of a toxic subculture can rub off on anyone, even those with the best intentions."
gaming
Gaming has always been a huge part of my life! It’s where I got started as a live streamer, and it’s still a passion of mine today.While my content focus has shifted to social commentary, I still stream games on occasion because I'm very passionate about bringing diversity of thought back into the gaming world, which has become increasingly closed off to non-progressive ideas.Some people think politics and gaming should stay separate—I agree. However, the reality is these worlds have already overlapped, and "culture warriors" need to recognize the influence that creative spaces have in shaping culture.So whether I’m grinding towards bronze in Overwatch or hunting survivors in Dead by Daylight, remember to subscribe and catch me live!
