'Alt-Right' media darling Lauren Southern retires from politics, social media
Daily Wire ^ | June 2019 | Amanda Prestigiacomo

Posted on 09/28/2019 2:42:33 PM PDT by CondoleezzaProtege

Journalist and independent filmmaker Lauren Southern announced her retirement from the political public sphere to take on a more full, private life. Just 23 years old, Southern plans on furthering her education, and has not ruled out political contributions in the future.

“Farewell,” Southern posted in a tweet... “I’ve enjoyed this all greatly but it’s time to start a new chapter of my life. Thank you to all my incredible colleagues who I’ll be cheering on in their fight for truth – and my wonderful supporters who made all I’ve done possible.”

“I have long wanted to pursue this less public life, but I have also felt a sense of duty to stay and make a difference..."

“Rest assured, it is not that I regret my past experiences. These have been the most formative and phenomenal years of my life,” said the 23-year-old. Southern’s work has brought her to riots exploding on the streets of Paris, the embattled farmlands of South Africa, and ground zero for migrant crises in Europe, the Middle East, and Africa.

This was back in June but she also quit doing YouTube in 2018. Just worked on a documentary and after its release on a interview with Stefan Molyneux she announced she was quitting. Her career was awfully short. She was at Sun News and The Rebel Media. Rebel had mass defections in 2017. Lauren quit Rebel and was on YouTube with a channel 13 months.

Also lady was Canadian from Toronto. As such she was focused on Canadian politics. But also European and American News. She did a documentary on mass immigration and another on South Africa before retiring.

If one is a conservative, public life takes its toll.

I wish her well.

Left wingers get to peddle their views and collect paychecks for doing so by working as journalists. Lauren Southern had Youtube views from which she was getting paid. Then she was demonetized. Facebook has been doing the same thing with respect to right-wingers, so that’s probably not an option. As an adult who has to pay the rent, it’s no surprise she’s quitting the itinerant existence of a right-wing pundit. Left-wingers get platforms like the New York Times and the Wall Street Journal for their opinions, while getting regular paychecks. Right-wingers get to comment for free on forums. Unlike left-wing punditry, its right-wing counterpart is not a living.

They have left us no alternative but to end their clown show. And I feel fine. We have all of heaven behind us, and even hell if we need it. They stand no chance.
