We have to go through this before being able to win.

Why KFC has not hired The Hound for their commercials, I’ll never know.

The MAJOR reasons conservatives are losing the culture war is Hollywood, the major TV networks and our education system - all of which are controlled by anti-Christian and anti-conservative people.

The last 2 generations have been thoroughly indoctrinated to be anti-Christian and anti-conservative. Unless/until Christians and conservatives gain control over Hollywood, the major TV networks and our education system - our enemies will continue to pollute the minds of the people.

Thomas Sowell, though a national treasure, is too old for the job (he leans toward nevertrumper, anyway.) But, Victor Davis Hanson, on the other hand, would make a MARVELOUS Sec. of Ed. (Or any OTHER cabinet post, for that matter).

we don’t really call anyone “degenerate” these days, do we?

I do. I have great fun reminding the homosexuals that write vicious hate-Trump stuff in my local liberal rag they are just that.

Guaranteed supernova when you remind them plenty of people are still revolted by their degeneracy.

Conservatives haven’t been too engaged in the culture, and a few decades later we’re here. That’s all.

Conservatives are losing the culture wars because they refuse to fight them.

Conservatism is misnamed, since it never actually conserves anything.

At least the killed the homo crap

Same time this queer gatekeeper left HBO

He single handedly made HBO insist on gratuitous homosexual plot lines before he would green light projects during his tenure

Geffen did this too

While there is a lot of tradcon stuff in this article I don’t really agree with, I agree that any man that even thinks about getting married today should be involuntarily committed as an immediate threat to himself. Marriage is over. Don’t even think about it.

How about 19th century attitudes in a 21st century world?

The entirety of the 1960’s drugs, sex and rock n’ roll counterculture was built upon cannabis intake, in a reverse engineering of the British Empire’s Opium Wars. Roll your eyes all you want, those dope smoking hippies took this nation’s conservatives to the cleaners and all our pissing and moaning about liberal control of institutions stems from that agenda.

Soon dope will be legal at the federal level either by legislation or by default as the individual states legalize cannabis and complete this 1960’s trend. Point being that we have absolutely zero countermeasures. Zero. I’ll go further and claim that we lack the daring and creativity to come up with countermeasures. Where is our counterpoint to Jack Kerouac, Alan Ginsberg, Andy Warhol, Brad Pitt? Basically we have no visionaries. How’s that workin’ out for us?

Read R. Buckminster Fuller’s “Ideas and Integrities” for some clues as to a cultural counter attack.
