I watched some of her videos on Newpipe, where it seems like Freya India is an EXTREMELY popular men among older conservative men that want women to get married and start bearing children (preferably Christian children).
I appreciate that she sees the rot in modern culture, but I think she’s mistaken when she associates it with “the left” and her prescription of returning to the status quo ante of traditional gender roles isn’t going to fly with most people.
Time for my daily Britt Hartley mention. Remember that scene in Platoon when the new recruits pass the returning veterans on the runway? Well, Britt Hartley is the returning veteran to Freya India’s new recruit. Britt was raised very mormon and inculcated in traditional gender roles and struggled to escape.
Some of Brtitt’s videos that might be part of this conversation are the one about why women want to become tradwives. I hear Freya validate a lot of what Britt says for she mentions anxiety as a big motivation for her to return to traditional values. Britt’s whole thing is analyzing existential anxiety, and, yeah, the modern age is rife with it, and returning to traditional values is one antidote (though it comes at a cost, obviously).
But, again, I do appreciate anyone that might validate what I think the core truth of our age is: “Being well in a profoundly sick society is no sign of health.”
Feel free to link Freya’s video, the one you’re talking about, and ignore the downvotes. Thanks for sharing.
To address the posts about what “left” is being described - Freya India is specifically addressing young women who fall into a social progressive category that don’t yet understand the businesses they “like” are not on their side and are taking advantage of them. The types who may say they want “socialism” but as far as they know socialism means things like being against Trump or just nice social sentiments. Not understanding that they really like capitalism and the things it affords them. The kind who have no idea of policy but will watch 30 political tiktok videos and thing they know something now.
I don’t know that name, certainly not their content, but this sure sounds like the perennial “avocado toast” non-argument to somehow associate young people being (predictably) broke and foolish with, ya know, caring equally for human beings and wanting our society to make that a primary goal.
It sounds like hateful trash, is what I mean. What “left” is this person describing, I wonder?
The interview was not a financial discussion and was not about the debt itself but lack self reflection that the things they like most contradict the values they grandstand. That they mouth one set of values but live out another set of values that are less likely the ones they will give up, push come to shove.
Yeah that doesn’t sound like the left lmao. The American left, whom the whole news-enjoying slice of the population believes to be the left? But which other countries consider right-of-center? Yeah, must be that “left”.
Young people don’t watch the news anymore because they either don’t want to hear about politics or they don’t trust the news for politics. I don’t even know any old left wing people that watch the news anymore.
Yeah, my point is really that all those news media convince everyone that liberals and Democrats are left wing, but they are far from it. Hard to imagine why any actual politically left (I.e. not “American left”) person would watch that stuff, it’s all propaganda.
Listening to a lady named Freya India who is talking about this exact same kind of cognitive dissonance.
The left hammers the points of anti-capitalism but go into debt for regular Disney vacations or high end brands, Taylor Swift Tickets, and more.

Ah okay. Sounds like an attack on liberals then, which I heartily support lol.
Oh yeah? Why is that?
I don’t think most people on “the left” are doing those things in the numbers you think they are.
