I feel like I'm going to be sick....and note the thinly veiled "true blue" Brits comment in the "apolitical" segment indicating that in fact, yes, they are at least quite right wing (UK right wing mainstream party's colour is blue). And all yapping on about our god awful monarchy and shit..FFS.

There's an upshot to this sort of thing. If people who take it up ultimately fail to make the connection, then it will have failed as a recruiting and normalizing tool.

The connection to right wing neo-con short-sighted deregulated free market economics and "life is fair - you get what you deserve" thinking you are referencing methinks GB.

I agree with you both that "white supremacist women are using the traditional mother role to engineer white supremacy within society", but that doesn't mean that all traditional wives are white supremacists. And for the other leg of the argument, neither are all traditional wives being sexually repressed by their male dominance hierarchies, nor is it a necessary conclusion that because you prefer a traditional role that you don't accept other people for who they are. I think shell hit about as close to the mark for me. I'm fine with "This woman, prefers a traditional role" a lot more than "All women should have a traditional role". People have been telling other people how to live though since we could say pass that rock though, so I'm not surprised. I'm just not going to just to any conclusions that accepting a traditional role automatically means you're a submissive racist PoS looking to make money off the masses with your astroturfing channel.
My very point was that it is a normalizing tool, and that's fine as a social construct, regardless of the perceived intentions. I don't care if she invites every woman to her hate rally, sells a billion books or teaches lorena bobbit moves in the bedroom. It's not my choice, and as long as it's an expression of a desired normative role that improves cognitive dissonance, it's not a bad option.

Using the shield of faux feminism to defend white supremacist outreach is a bad look.
In fact, it's the same look that the tradwife movement intentionally cultivates.

I'm not defending white supremacists, mister conspiracy theorist. Nor do I give a rats ass about feminism, faux or otherwise. Do you disagree that as long as your social tool is an expression of a desired normative role, and doesn't oppress or harm others, when it improves cognitive dissonance, it's not a bad option? I left out promoting because I personally don't care who promotes what.
