On one hand I don’t think we should be rejecting the visas of people who we disagree with, but on the other hand she’s a climate change denier and that makes it hard for me to actually want to hear anything she has to say
It's not about disagreeing, it's about the likelihood of the person in question inciting or aggravating hatred and violence within Australia.
She advocated for the US to invade us to save us from the tyrrany of COVID lockdowns. She can go get proper fucked.
Disagree is not the correct frame here.
That part of the point is correct, it just doesn't apply in this case.
