Larsson, a self-proclaimed fan of American actress Beyoncé, identifies as a feminist and models herself an "activist" after the singer.[48] She attributes her openness of opinion on social media and within interviews to her parents, claiming: "Both my parents are very educated when it comes to social issues and being woke about what's going on in the world, and they've been very supportive of me having a voice".[48] Larsson says she "has received a lot of hate" for her feminist opinions, including being called a "man hater". She responded that she "doesn't care" if people call her a man-hater, because "it doesn't really hurt men if I hate them".[49]

Larsson has grown increasingly vocal with her impressions of other artists and industry workers with whom she works and admires. While she has high praise for performers such as Beyoncé,[48] she is equal in her opposing views of such artists like American singer-songwriters Dr. Luke[50] and Chris Brown.[51]
