Normals get to use the remains of OPFOR as mulch?

Easy.

When I have the better argument I win.

We have seen this time after time in the comments section of NYT, WaPo and of course, The Hill.

EVERY TIME my argumentation and facts are superior, the lefties acknowledge it and withdraw.

(Do I REALLY need the /SARC tag????)

If all believing Christians would simply turn off their TVs, social media, fake news, and stop going to movies for 6 months you would see a huge difference in the culture.

As long as Christians live like the world does the world will pay no attention and keep on doing what it is doing.

I was dismayed the other days to hear supposed Christians talking about Game of Thrones and the “ending.” What the hell are Christians doing watching something like Game of Thrones?

IMHO, so called “culture wars” are a waste of time. I’m not gonna change my opinion and neither are they.

The FReeper responses to leftist and RINO articles posted here are a perfect illustration of my point. Lots of hubbub, little affect.

It means defeating covert anti-Americanism.

Best example of navel-pondering I’ve seen all day.

To crush [them], to see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentations of their women.

In terms of the so called ‘Culture War’ the Right is far too reactive both philosophically and in action.

Philosophically, the Right needs to move beyond the Leftist created dichotomy that left=change and right=no change and offer a positive affirmative vision beyond simply holding out as long as possible while their opponents chip away.

In Action, the right needs to get off their butt and do something besides simply reacting to everything the left does. The left understands this is a total war and are waging it in culture in the classroom and across all institutions. The right on the other hand fights the war through politics and explicitly political processes, ie protesting. The Leftists know that they don’t need to always call attention to what they are doing. Leftwing philosophy is fed subtly to your family through the Disney movie you go watch and the HR policies at your work. You think just the ballot box will counter that.

Culture wars are inevitable and actually proper. It should be a civilized battle among different points of view held by individuals. The problem comes when the government uses its might to decide one is right and one is wrong and that it has the right to suppress what it defines as wrong.

The Left have successfully concluded their "March through the Institutions". If conservatism is ever to have a chance at being the default choice of most Americans, then conservatives will have to:

1) Have lots of kids
2) Encourage/plead with their kids to go into teaching, journalism, media, law, politics, etc.
3) Be willing to fight tooth and nail with the left establishment to allow their kids to get jobs in those industries.

If conservatives don't have control of the major institutions of a society then the people will be brainwashed by the Left.

Conservatives were OK with letting the lefties takeover everything besides business, because they thought business was a reasonable counterweight to everything else. But now we find that decades of youths going through leftist universities like Harvard and Yale have corrupted corporate boardrooms as well.

There is no place within the higher echelons of society for conservatives. Even during the Reagan administration, the Trotskyist neocons kicked the paleocons to the curb.

As the left would say: they have complete control over "the narrative" while the conservatives have lost the thread.

There are those that say rather than trying to regain control of the institutions we need to replace them with alternatives. Replace leftist colleges with right-leaning on-line courses. Replace K-12 with home schooling. Replace Google/YouTube/Facebook, etc. with conservative alternatives. But where is the money going to come from when most of those who become ultra-wealthy tend to also become more cosmopolitan in attitude?

Trump is conservative in many ways, but he is not a social conservative. Murdoch is just a freemarketeer. The Koch Brothers are no longer trustworthy, etc.

We can shut down the border for a start, but the elites seem be doing a great job of stalling Trump's efforts and may ultimately do an end run and put in some sort of amnesty if the Dims ever regain power.

When real conservatives are nearing actual victory, Rinos like Geraghty ride to the rescue and prematurely capitulate.
