The (very small) amount of fame she's collected has come through her work in the field, and it's a field she's been in for a while; she's hardly chasing glory.
People don’t have to be chasing fame to be warped by it. She has cultivated a following of like-minded people who provide ever more positive feedback for her ever more ideological writing.
I mean she is literally dismissing people who disagree with her based on their skin color. Can we stop for a minute to wonder about the incentives that encourage that?
(and I generally like her writing and think she has interesting things to say… but I do see a reward cycle going on)
She's intelligent and worth listening to, but she has just as much personal bias and motivation as anyone else.
