Personal life

She is also known as Zofia Klepacka-Noceti.[2]

In February 2019, she criticized the Mayor of Warsaw Rafał Trzaskowski and the "LGBT+ declaration" signed by him.[2][3] She published on her social media "No on has the right to impose on our children something we parents don’t want!!!!". Klepacka's comments received hundreds of reactions, including many from fans in agreement with her stance.[4] She also applauded a right wing publication that equated LGBT people to Nazis.[5][6]

gollark: What?
gollark: As I said, I suppose you could argue I'm mostly not against it on *principled* grounds, however <:icosidodecahedron:726025762590949426>.
gollark: It's stating *directly relevant* things as fact and then complaining when I disagree with them.
gollark: They just state them as fact. And as I said, I don't believe torture is actually effective at anything but making terrible people happy.
