Views

Jonie's views on transgender rights have been called in the media a "nice reminder that transphobia is an increasingly intersectional endeavor."[6]

In 2025, Jonie became the subject of further controversy after comments made on Stew Peters' podcast about Ohio-born 2024 United States Presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy. She later stated on social media that she would not rest until Ramaswamy was deported back to the country he came from and referred to India as a "shit hole."[7] The comments brought about widespread condemnation.[8] [9]
