Now that photos can search text, I looked up “Bruenig.” I only found 10 screenshots, that I tweeted about at the time, but a couple are doozies. Let’s start with maybe the canonical example of how her “leftism” coexisted with what I’ll call a soft forced birth position.
One of the difficulties with reciting the ways the Bruenigs suck shit is that a lot of it was on Twitter, and they would regularly delete all of their tweets to make it difficult to verify the ways they were awful outside of consulting some weird freaks who kept unsettling logs of screenshots.

I like this one because it makes short work of the idea that she’s a great thinker.

Defense of Susan Sarandon combined with a glee at the (false, as it turns out) prediction that Dems were going to get crushed in the midterms. Fun stuff.

This one, you’ll note, is just “rotating villain” wearing a dress and saying “tee hee”

This one makes me think so many things but I can’t really top wrapping it up with “ideally the lord”

the number of people on the right who seem to have decided that the solution to people not voting for their policies is "just have a king lol" is pretty worrying

I thought this was a "leftist" till the last line.
Her entire schtick is trying to pretend to be a leftist despite being an authoritarian trad-cath.

It doesn't help that Bluesky's feed treats skeets and replies interchangeably.

Some threads are best left snipped off at the middle.

She is def not a trad cath. Trad cath has a very specific meaning. As far as I know she doesn't want to repeal Vatican ii
Tbh, I don’t respect her or trad caths enough to learn the precise difference.

If you're like "tee-hee I'd love it if the lord our God selected the head of state tee-hee and then banned abortion" I don't give a single shit about whether you agree or disagree that God speaks Latin in church. You're a trad-cath and I'm going to call you a trad-cath.

I'm just trying to continue this convo to its obvs logical failing. "And how do you determine the Lord's choice" "The people will know because of THE LORD" "And what of different people think the lord has choosen different philosopher kings?" "They can... vot... Oh shit"

I think in this context it means "Catholic Trad Wife" as opposed to your typical Protestant Trad Wife. Which would mean she's running a scam, since all the Trad Wife content providers are pretty much scamming their followers.

She's also kinda sorta socialist which makes her a weird mix of ideologies.

She is! Just one of those leftists who have no ideology other than owning the libs
