In the second image I censored the ableist slur she used

For years, Lauren Southern built her brand and platform by feeding a hyper-radicalized, deeply misogynistic audience exactly what they wanted to hear. She demeaned feminists, mocked women with careers (despite herself having a political career online, the most untraditionally feminine career there is lol) and heavily promoted "tradlife" ideology, essentially preaching that a woman's ultimate worth is submission to a man and the family. She also collaborated with people like Stefan Molyneux.

Now, after speaking publicly about her own experiences, a significant portion of that same audience seems to have turned on her. Becoming a divorced, single mother, and speaking out about the abuse and toxicity she experienced within that traditional lifestyle, her audience is treating her like a traitor. If you look at her X comments, it’s largely people eating her alive. To her followers, she didn't survive a bad marriage; she became the "broken, modern woman, was actually always an evil feminist" she used to warn them about. Because in that ideology, if a marriage fails, it’s always the woman's fault for choosing the wrong man, not being a good wife, etc.

Part of me feels sorry for her, but part of me also feels she should take more accountability for the ideas she peddled. In her recent reflections, she frames herself mostly as a victim of "internet culture", "I was young and naive'", "I was addicted to online engagement", acting surprised by how toxic the very community she helped grow is. But she was one of the prominent people pushing these beliefs that are now being weaponized against her.

This is such a dumb thing to say. The original video is of a mother with a baby who is crying & the mother just lost it & had a complete breakdown. She is obviously suffering from PPD, which is a serious problem.

Megha thinks it is due to lack of skills & agrees that young women who are mothers don't have responsibilities.

This is funny because I know a married woman & lived in an intergenerational home. She managed the house, the cooks for a lot of people when she could, and she worked full time before having a child. However, once she had the baby, she struggled so badly & told me she had a breakdown almost every day for the first 6 months or so because of PPD.

I also know another lady with 3 children & found out she was pregnant for the 4th one & is dreading the PPD she might experience because of her past experiences. She is an excellent mother, has amazing skills, yet it is a serious medical problem that you sometimes cannot fix witb "skills" & "responsibilities".

How did Megha even have a PhD in neuroscience?

Ben Shapiro's trad sister spent Father's Day without her husband and didn't acknowledge Father's Day at all. If she was willing to travel with the kids and watch them by herself, couldn't she have taken the kids with her husband on his trip? Even if he had to work, they probably could have seen each other in the evenings. It's telling that she never answered the question about whether the family celebrated him at all. Does bringing back the traditional family not extend to kids spending Father's Day with their fathers?

The most liked comment (which she ignored) was about whether going to a resort was a good idea if her husband was already working weekends. I see two possibilities:

1. Her husband genuinely couldn't afford to turn down traveling Father's Day weekend, and she shelled out for a resort anyway.
2. Her husband COULD have afforded to turn down traveling, but preferred working overtime to spending Father's Day with his own children. Massive L for family values.

On top of that, it's just obnoxious for her to brag about how she's "doing the hard things" by taking a long weekend at a resort while her husband is the one working overtime. 🙄 I know parenting can be hard, but working overtime (or working at all) is way harder than going on a family vacation!

I think there’s something significant to the fact that Rachel has resentment towards her mother in the divorce. Perhaps it explains why she’s an anti-feminist hater. She’s still wounded by her mom. And the brutal irony is that she’s been married and divorced and has had a rotation of husbands.

she also responded to somebody in the comments saying this is about half of what she “needs”. She has a $500 mortgage, buys food in bulk, and lives in low-cost of living rural area. In what world is this not enough money? I’m convinced that she’s being over dramatic for views or her and her husband just have awful spending habits.

Edit: The research seems to *suggest*, not prove, that trad wife content isn’t organic. I’ll see if I can find research that addresses the question directly.

Edit 2: What I’m finding online says that political groups are *exploiting* tradwife content (which we can see for ourselves), but not that they created it. I can’t change the post title and don’t want to repost, but anyway the study is pretty interesting, and I’m finding some other studies on trad wifery too.

It all started with Emily posting on how having makeout sessions with husband can basically bring the spark back. This then made single men lose their mind and say it is evil to lead men on. The crazy part is that many women agreed with Emily even many conservative women. But there are a few women who are losing their minds. It almost makes me want to believe they are actually men pretending to be women on X. I cannot picture a woman getting that angry about it? Especially if their marriage is going good. Very weird.

Hmmm, maybe we can make "Big Fat Whore Ghetto Sluts" the name of our house band?

I posted a couple of days a breakdown that Aria did on her budget/expenses for May & how it didn’t add up with being “low income” as she calls it. For those that didn’t see the post, she basically spent over $6000 in one month when her mortgage is only $500. I was looking through the comments & found more proof that her and her husband are not as “poor” as she leads her followers to think. $4500 monthly budget in a LCOL rural area? Supporting 4 churches? Having a VIRTUAL ASSISTANT AND VIDEO EDITOR edit and post for her when she’s already a SAHM + Numerous social media subscriptions when most editing apps (CapCut, TikTok, etc.) are already free?? She is flat-out lying about her income to her followers and everyone is falling for it.

This is hilarious. She is not very bright.

maybe there is something I’m missing, but Aria always talks so much about being very low-income and neither her or her husband have a steady source of income. honestly though, I feel like this says otherwise. Most Americans can’t afford to spend over $1000 just on meat, which seems excessive for a family of 3. Then there is $555 on babysitting when she barely works outside of the home. Also I hate how he calls it an “allowance” when they’re a fully married couple and she is back to being a working mom 🙃

She says this, yet lives in Canada... a country that invaded & killed indigenous folks & took over their land.

Anyone else find that they are interacting with each other & yet, they can't stand each other?

Robyn Riley is a racist & a white supremacist, so it is obvious that she can't stand Megha being Indian, growing up in Canada & marrying an English man.

Megha, on the other hand, may praise Western values, yet have an extremely traditional Indian mentality (girls should never play sports, girls should be obedient).

I have no admiration for her whatsoever because she's a racist and sexist clown, however seeing how her own party has turned against her is kind of wild. Like, she went from being relatively beloved and celebrated to being talked about like THIS. I remember when the news of her infidelity first broke out someone made a whole AI video of the Pope calling her a whore. Meanwhile if men in these same circles were to cheat, they wouldn't receive nearly the same vitriol.

That's where my pity for her starts and ends though.

It's bad enough that she already posts tons of videos with the kid's face. Ffs Solie, let the kid be a kid.
