Okay, i looked into those and i know the type. If i wanted to name a person that embodies this i’d go to people like Graham Hancock.
How dies it apply to Hosenfelder?
Angela Collier on YT has some good videos about these. I think those videos talks about conspiracy and science crackpots.

Adding to what the others have said: I think Hossenfelder is also an example of chasing YouTube popularity. And apparently many people are really into this anti-science, right-wing stuff. It probably also aligns somehow with her own values, but I’m pretty confident that this is beneficial to her streaming business.

Would that I had more than one upvote for Angela Collier. Her last video actually addresses the Sabine Hossenfelder issue directly. youtu.be/miJbW3i9qQc
