The left has been kicking the right’s ass for years. As a
mindset expert, my answer is: “And they deserve to win.”
The
right cries about George Soros. Crying is pretty consistent with conservatism.
Conservatives even cry about me being “too mean.”
What
has the left done? They’ve stepped up.
·
Billionaire Mexican monopolist funds
the New York Times.
·
Jezz Bezos funds the Washington Post.
·
Barry Diller funds the Daily Beast.
·
Hollywood discriminates against right-wing artists.
·
Publishing houses censor effective writers
like me.
Conservatives fund feckless think tanks, the left funds media and
entertainment. That’s why the left is winning.
There’s
no exhaustive list of conservative think tanks, though research reveals there
are hundreds.
What
have these think tanks conserved? Think tanks can’t even prevent the financial
ruin of impoverished bakers who didn’t want to perform a trivial act like
baking a wedding cake for a gay wedding. (I can understand requiring doctors to
treat gay people, medicine is an essential service. In what world can’t a gay
couple find someone else to make a cake?)
Conservative
think tanks are a complete waste of money. The NRA is the most effective
conservative group, and that’s due to its political activism. The right
doesn’t need yet another stately-looking “think paper.” The right needs news
media, films, and cultural icons.
Original reporting is almost exclusively monopolized by the
left.
How
much original reporting is being done by the right? A blog post about an
article someone else wrote is not original reporting. It’s commentary, and
commentary is useful. But it’s not reporting.
We do
more journalism via my social media than 99% of “conservative media.”
My
readers got into the habit of attending Hillary rallies and showing pictures of
the small crowds. That’s real journalism. Why wasn’t Ben Shaprio of Daily Wire
sending people to rallies? Where was National Review? What about Weekly
Standard?
The
sophisticated right hates on Alex Jones. You know what? Fuck the haters. I’ve
seen Alex Jones’ people everywhere doing original reporting. Joe
Biggs was in Haiti right now investigating Clinton Foundation fraud.
Breitbart
also sends reporters into the field to cover actual stories.
The
right doesn’t need more “commentary,” or “think tanks,” or “media watch dogs.”
The right needs more journalists who are in the field breaking news.
Brent Bozell
is earning $400,000 running a “non-profit” media “watch dog” site. That fat egg
head at Weekly Standard earns $500,000 a year. What good have they done?
Show me their actual cultural impact. You can’t. They have no
impact.
Rich
idiots keep shoveling money into more zero-impact projects.
The left still controls the news cycle because they
break stories (hoaxes, yes, but there is power in hoaxing).
Even
though the stories are hoaxes, the right is still forced to respond to
them. If you control the news cycle, you control the election. The left
controls the news and thus picks the winners and losers.
There
is no money in journalism. I am one of the few people who can earn a living doing
journalism because viral stories translate (poorly, there are far more
efficient ways to move books) into book sales.
The
average right-wing journalist doesn’t have a chance.
Imagine
a college student wants to do real journalism – not this churnalism stuff where
you “report” on what other media others covered. I mean real journalism
where you fly your ass out somewhere to interview people and cover an actual
issue like the fake refugee “crisis”?
How are
they going to do that? Last I checked, journalism requires money.
Media
will always be run at a loss. The left gets this. They understand that
investing in media is an immediate loss leader, but you get to make the world
in your image.
The left is re-making America into its image – one of depravity.
Children
are now given “hormones” at a young age to convert them into another gender.
Charles C.W. Cooke of National Review agreed with Salon and wrote that
pedophiles deserve “respect and compassion.”
The
left wants to import “refugees” because those same “refugees” bring with them
terrorism and rape.
Yes the
left is winning. They deserve to win because the right’s response is another
cruise where “non-profit” think tankers earning $500,000 a year rant and rave
about the biased liberal media!
Meanwhile “conservative media” attacks me.
There
are 5 or maybe 10 people on the right who create news cycles rather than
respond to the left.
Rather
than let me raise hell, “conservatives” undermine me at every turn. After I
went on FoxNews, Shapiro threw a fit.
“You’ve got to be kidding me.
He’s a nutcase,” said right-wing author and radio host Ben Shapiro. “Granting
any legitimacy to a fringe kook like Mike Cernovich, and all of the attendant
nastiness and problems, is close to insane by any cable network.”
What
news cycle has Shapiro created? When he’s not sending stickers to people who
buy his latest failing book, he’s crying about Trump.
What
news have any “conservative pundits” broken? Again, 99% of those conservative
talking heads respond to news the left has made. They play defense, I play
offense.
The
left has been winning, and while it may enrage people who don’t understand
Gorilla Mindset, I say the left deserves to win.
If the
rich people on the right don’t want to fund real journalism, instead
choosing to pump billions into impotent think tanks, and if “conservatives”
want to react to news others are breaking, how could I conclude otherwise?
I’ll
keep breaking news, because he who controls the news cycle controls the
election.

we can start winning again, read MAGA Mindset. There’s an entire section on the
media and news cycles.
