Lauren Southern was once one of the most influential figures in the online alt-right movement. Her outspoken views on feminism, immigration and free speech earned her a massive following, while her activism and commentary made headlines around the world. After stepping away from politics to embrace a traditional family life, Southern is now reassessing the movements and ideas that helped make her famous.
In her new book, This Is Not Real Wife, Southern takes aim at the manosphere, the "trad wife" phenomenon, and the online culture she says shaped a generation of young men and women. Her critics accuse her of abandoning the movement she once championed, while her supporters argue she is exposing uncomfortable truths.
She joins Uncensored to debate christian Andrew Wilson on the issue.
