"The most hated conservative college student in the state": How a UNT student embroiled her campus

“The most hated conservative college student in the state”: How a UNT student embroiled her campus in a culture war

by Kate McGee, Texas Tribune


The University of North Texas has more than 42,000 students, but few are as infamous as senior Kelly Neidert.

Since she arrived at the Denton campus in 2019, the 22-year-old marketing major has revived its Young Conservatives of Texas chapter — which had been dormant for years — and developed a reputation among students and administrators as the campus’ biggest provocateur.

She’s easily recognizable in her red Make America Great Again hat and a megaphone sometimes slung over her shoulder — she uses it to troll her liberal classmates. On Twitter, she branded herself “the most hated conservative college student in the state of Texas.”

When students held a protest in January to push for more online classes during the peak of the omicron variant, Neidert went to the top of a nearby parking garage and shouted through her megaphone for more in-person classes. On social media, she tweets statements like, “trans ‘women’ are men, actually,” and “One of my greatest accomplishments is giving Covid to someone who was vaxxed.”

I think NOT!

There are many well funded Roger Stone types who will compete for her services. College has been a four year audition for her.

political affiliation. The woman above has eliminated a lot of potential employers with her activism. That is what my comment about "employment prospects limited" alludes to. She may be a right-wing darling, but outside of those groups employers who become aware of her background will avoid her like the plague.

If she claims to have an 'accomplishment' of infecting a vaccinated person, she is claiming medical harm, carelessness and or negligence.

And worse, at 22 she proves there are still plenty of young Republiqans ready to take over and keep the hate going for another generation.
