Conservative Media's Darkest Secret: They're Closet Liberals
Mark Dice on Youtube ^ | 12/23/2024 | Mark Dice

Posted on 12/25/2024 8:21:13 AM PST by ducttape45

I know folks don't like to view videos to get an explanation for the post, but listening to it will give you far more insight than my simple explanation, but suffice to say Mark Dice is really on spot here. He goes into detail about how he views many so-called conservative voices as actually being closet liberals but not willing to come out as such.

I know not everyone we listen to or read about is going to check all the boxes and that conservative hosts are never going to completely satisfy our desire for a purely Christian conservative viewpoint, but I believe there is merit in what Mark is saying.

Let me know your thoughts.

Thanks, and Merry Christmas to all.

Agree. He spends a lot of time calling people cowards then doesn’t name names.

Neocons don’t count. Anybody with a brain or a cursory interest in history knows they are leftist warmongers who took over a wing of the
Republican party. They came out of the closet as soon as Trump started running in 2015.

Most of us can pick out a phony. That’s why Hannity is a punchline on this site.

Armstrong & Getty out of Sacramento KSTE.

Definitely NOT libs. Conservative/libertarian types.

Hostile to wokeness, transitioning of children, the divisive Marxist "theories" that abound, leftists, etc.

And they're funny. I've been listening to them since the '90s.

No matter how conservative someone might be, there will be a person pop up and start ranting about RINOs and traitors. Don’t let perfect be the enemy of good.

Hannity is a useless leftard. He is also a crappy interviewer, he constantly talks over his guests so we can’t even hear their ideas and makes himself the subject of the interview.

Still a Bush/Romney/McCain/ Cheney fan aren’t you?

That is a fact. The only source I do not find subliminal left propaganda is RAV. All the others are fakes.

My joke about Hannity—he is what leftists think conservatives are.

I agree. And your point is proven by a previous post to you.
I’m as conservative as they come , but because I think Trump has made mistakes and has made some recently(rename Denali, Panama Canal) some would call me RINO or whatever.
These are the same people/personality types that are on the left that we rightfully mock.

The game is visible for "talking heads" of all sorts. But Dice too plays it, rather well. He is a clever and entertaining fellow, but the act is rather the same. For exposing fools, we rather enjoys Libs of Tik Tok, which the libs hate when they are simply "exposed."

I have looked at many "voices" using YouTube channels, so to be equal-jhanded:

Its valid to state that we can’t let the perfect be the enemy of the good. There are mainstream conservatives who have not yet fully woken up to the utter depravity and corruption of the RINO/neocon wing, and we have to help them along with patience. That said, serial compromise with the supposedly “good” is what got us into our current mess. A careful and thoughtful balance is what is needed now.

America would’ve been better off if Bushes had lost, both of them.

Conservative media personalities are far and few between, especially among those who claim the title.

The most accurate thing I heard about Hannity: “I never learn anything when I listen to him”

Don’t let perfect be the enemy of good

Needs to be repeated.
