Please explain this woman to me: Heard her for the first time on a recent episode of Chapo Trap House (new listener) and she seemed pretty run of the mill until she said something about women needing to be removed from positions of power in order to make America socialist. Everyone seemed to be in agreement with her, but they also don't seem like progressive Christian/"pro-life liberals". What is the intersection of "dirtbag" socialism and whatever this broad believes?

Lmfao did she actually say that? The Bruenigs are known for their weird American brand of Christian socialism
Ryder Ramirez
literally who?
literally what?

Stop listening to Chapo
Cum Town is much better anyway.
John Powell
Stop.
Jaxon Perry
Yeah, they were talking shit about Beto and how everyone needs to get behind Bernie ASAP, and she said that removing women from positions of power was part of his original platform in 2016.
The fact that one of them was like "Yes definitely" was weird enough but I do not remember Bernie ever saying anything remotely like this lmao
Anthony Bell
who gives a fuck. more podcast attention whores
Nathaniel Lewis
The men are annoying but Amber seems okay
Camden Gray
She is the perfect wife.
I am so jealous of Mr. Bruenig.
Robert Phillips
She cute
Ethan Rodriguez
Why does everyone say this, she’s probably the worst since she supposedly has read capital but still sounds like a liberal.
Ian Walker
There's a running joke on the show that Bernie is a misogynist. It's irony and not serious. Everyone's playing along.
Juan Martin
Yeah that's what I kinda gathered, but she was deadass
Oliver Walker
or i assume she was given her weird Christian morals
Benjamin Bennett
That's what irony is.
Jaxson Jackson
Chapo is great, but Cum Town is better. People bitching about podcasts here are weird twitter ☭TANKIE☭s.

She's basically a boring succdem but because she's Catholic (and actually follows her religion) she triggers other boring succdems. Like she doesn't even want to ban abortion, she just says she personally thinks it's bad, and that's still enough to make Democrat Cops of America types seethe.
Logan Parker
this is just a way of adressing how frustrated they are with how mainstream liberals and socdems feel that they need to address war criminals and bourgies who profit off of human suffering in respectable and polite language, while the hosts (and other assorted twitter lefties) see no problem calling them what they are, not buying into the concept that if you swear or something, than it makes your opponents right
Leo Myers
its irony. how do you not pick up on that when we're descendants of the same somethingawful style irony

Matt isn't religious though, it's just her.
Adam Bennett
She's married to Matt Bruenig, a left-wing economic commentator. Matt recently got some notoriety for being fired from democratic think tank Demos for being too hostile to their policy of bombing Libya for oil.
She's a Catholic and constantly riles people up because leftism's socially progressive positions and Catholic doctrine often don't form a homogenous mixture.
Cooper Clark
i didn't pick up on it because i wasn't listening too closely and just heard 'we don't want women in positions of power' before the chapos said anything. she didn't seem to mirror their style so i thought she wasn't jk
Matthew Smith
listened to an episode of cum town and it definitely is better. more authentic shit talking/less tryhard banter
Eli Lewis
get the fuck out goon.
Levi Morales
I genuinely hate the racist jokes Cumtown.
Gabriel Ross
her ideologies are completely incompatible. this is an objectively true statement. i also think people are obsessed with her because of the unironic "tradwife" aesthetic, which is stupid
