    When I was a 21 year old woman freshly washed out of college, I did a brief stint as a farmhand for a lady running a working farm and raising two kids while her husband was on deployment in the navy. She was the most hardworking and practical person I have ever met. She lived in rubber boots and a raincoat, she sent her kids to school and fed them store bought cereal and mcdonalds on weekends. She got up at five everyday and had no holidays or weekends. I once watched her wrestle piglets when they got into the hazelnut field, getting covered in slop and pig shit. She WAS a career woman. And her career was backbreaking and relentless.
    She patiently listened to my ideas of a little hobby farm where everything would be natural and self sustaining. Then she gave me a hammer and told me to go tear down a rusty old shed.
    I owe her so much for kindly but thoroughly waking me up from this fantasy. I don't know where I would have ended up otherwise.

    as will all forms of fash, tradwife stuff is the leveraging of an aesthetic and lifestyle that is neither possible nor adhered to by the people promoting it. these women aren't TWs they're business people, actors etc. they don't follow their own rules, the hypocrisy is again, the point.
    its also worth noting, that this is a great example of the lesser studied behavior and influence women have during times of fash rising, and what part they play. we often think of fash as a male thing, but there's a lot of work that is done women to build these 'movements'

    I'm a stay at home mom and the trad wife movement bugs me. Most of us are wearing leggings or sweatpants, barely able to eat enough in a day, no time to be dolling myself up every day. Also the main reason I stay home is for my son. For his well being. That point feels lost in the trad movement? It's more about pleasing your husband and dressing a certain way.

    I just want to add a little thought here, while I do understand why people criticize homeschooling, there is a massive difference between this "homeschooling" which these tradwives push and the sort of homeschooling I did. My parents homeschooled me, but I had an actual curriculum, and did actual lessons. I learned history, math, geography etc, I had exams. This nonsense that they are pushing is not even schooling.

    I completely agree with your video essay, but I do feel that it’s missing something. The idea of completely living off the land in the modern day is ridiculous and dangerous, let alone the insane cost of managing it or even purchasing the property like you mentioned. However, and that is something I heavily encourage and a Marxist, is not to necessarily downplay simple menial labour if possible. Two or three chickens in a cage in your backyard, and some simple crops here and there besides your work are healthy aspects of life that can help you escape from the dreaded 9-5 day. While traditional living is extremely revisionist, “traditional” aspects implemented in modern living are more often beneficial and also educational. Having your kid feed the chickens before heading to public school is in my opinion a progressive power of living a good life outside of the capitalist crushing machine

      There are some valid reasons I've heard, like providing a way out of abuse, from peers or teachers, or systemic problems like racism.
      The thing is though, those parents often hire a private tutor because they put their kids' wellbeing and education BEFORE their online ideological clout.
      Parents like those I discussed in the video don't care about what's best for their kids. If they did, they wouldn't exploit them for content.
      They care about feeling correct.

      Exactly. Late stage capitalism successfully pulled both women and men out of the home to work as wage slaves so now a traditional family that works for themselves on their own land is a dead idea. And the amazing thing is the same late stage capitalist society has now convinced most (not all) people under its sway that the image of the traditional family is "problematic" "hateful" or "racist" etc etc. self sufficient families SHOULD BE AND WERE the norm until the Industrial Revolution.

      @@Winaska Do most people really think the image of a traditional family is problematic, hateful, racist, etc., or are people more skeptical of people who idealize the aesthetic because some of them tend to come from the position of "Look what we had before "they" took it from us!", the "they" usually being a minority boogeyman of choice such as free women, feminists, sjws, people of color, queer people, trans people, and not the actual core of the problem such as late stage capitalism, an uber rich ruling class, politicians in the pocket of said ruling class, etc.
      The idea of learning more self sustaining skills and sharing both the knowledge and resources with your community is considered in more than a few leftist circles radical action. We could, when possible, learn to garden in our yards or try to create community gardens and learn to cook and share what we make and grow with others. I'm super down for that. I just won't tolerate anyone who wants to do that in service of creating a whites only fascist homestead into my community.

      @@gregvs.theworld451 if the idea of returning to a more agrarian-pre-capitalist society is radical leftism that's hilarious. Remember that at one time industrialization and capitalism were the great left wing progressive movements over and against "medieval backward feudalism." "left" "right" "radical" etc are all limited political jargon that fails to grasp the reality because they are all relative to one's position in society and in history. Its not about politics, its about reconstructing what the last 200 years of "progress" stole from humanity. Taking us away from the natural world and natural organic communities and placing us first in factories and then in suburbs... and all of that was seen as "progress"

      @@gregvs.theworld451 i did blame it on late stage capitalism. remember that capitalism and industrialization were once hailed as great progressive movements over and against "backward" and "medieval" agrarianism and feudalism (a misunderstood concept almost always). calling self-sustaining families "radical" sounds weird to anyone who knows their history. The "progress of the last 200 years of human history was not progress at all, made things worse. What you call radical is merely a return to a more natural and organic human existence, which would have been recognizable to any human pretty much from ancient times until the 18th century. It would be...conservative... but in a radical way i suppose. But that just proves that all these political terms are ultimately useless cause they mean so many things to so many different people. What was progressive a century ago is now usually seen as backward. of course that see-saw of opinion is part and parcel of capitalism and post-modernism: they want to keep us swinging back and forth so we cannot settle down and actually form an identity, culturally or individually. returning to organic, traditional human communities is the only way out of the trap.

      @@Winaska I don't disagree with what you say that from a historical standpoint these ideas aren't radical or profound, but it is worth considering to meet people where they're at. Nobody alive today was around 200+ years ago, and while consciously history buffs can know self sufficiency wasn't all that long ago, I think some part of our monkey brains still feels like the idea of rural agrarianism was a million years ago (Provided the individual reading this wasn't raised on a farm or something). Combine that with the fact that, for a lot of people living today, late stage capitalism is the system they were born and raised under and all they've ever known, I think that as annoying as it may be we may have to pitch concepts of self sufficiency as bold and novel concepts that fly in the face of the system they've known since forever but is a better way than what we have right now.
