When i googled, it was very difficult to find anything in its original context, just some quotes, that certainly sound nutty on their face but also are very short to the point it is unclear if she was quoted fairly.

I don't think this is a good article, but it does have the quotes in it. https://web.archive.org/web/20231102081020/https://valleywag...

re "pro-slavery" specifically that seems very clearly intended as a hypothetical argument in response to someone else; e.g. you can imagine an argument about whether you ought to raise the minimum wage where one person points out that someone on minimum wage can't even afford to pay rent and purchase food, or something.
The rest of it sounds extremely sarcastic and tongue-in-cheek. It's also (all of it) more than ten years ago. I think it's a bad idea to judge someone on the basis of a handful of out of context tweets like this.
Stuff like
> Justine Tunney is petitioning the White House to make Eric Schmidt the "CEO of America."
seems clearly like a pointed act of satire by someone who thinks corporations have too much power.

A lot of people sit on the blurry line between genius and insanity, and that's not necessarily a bad thing.

It is a bad thing when the person is a fascist.

See, the problem with this argument is that it has an obvious left-wing bias. If you had made your argument based on principles like "which ideology killed more people" then you would have mentioned communism, but when you mention an ideology that is by comparison quite benign, it comes across as preachy.
