Episode 34: WTF is Trad? pt.2 (Is Trad the New Punk?)

Is Trad, short for traditionalism, the new punk? If the Left are now known for their policing, liberalism, and infantilism, how could rejecting that not be appealing? If HR departments are increasingly dominated by liberal ideology, and the Left have not stepped up as todays rebels, then it is traditionally rightwing ideas that can start to fill that void and offer opposition. In a climate where home ownership and raising children becomes increasingly economically unaffordable for young people, marriage and kids becomes a flex of wealth and success. Rejecting porn in favour of traditional relationships, going to church, owning a property within a natural setting, and the permanent values attached to these, offer an alternative to meaningless sex, relentless commodity acquisition, chaotic market free fall, and the superficialness of the internet. But can Trad really be punk when it proposes a return to the past and essentially a renewed conservatism? Listen and decide!
