Weird criticism of rw commentary bc I feel like those two topics are all we talk about on here? Unless he means the pundit / political class which is then 100% accurate
Politics is downstream of culture. But culture is downstream of demographics & money flows. Once you understand that, a lot of what's going on in the country makes sense.
Let's take L.A. mayoral race for instance. No, Pratt is not going to win. Yes, Bass is an abject failure. But people don't vote based on a checklist of policies but rather based on their personal values and self-interest.
L.A., like many major U.S. cities, has undergone a radical demographic transformation. There isn't much of a functional White middle class - the group that fueled the rise of the modern American conservative movement and was the reason why CA used to be a GOP leaning state. What L.A. now has is a wealthy liberal elite (mostly White), large mass of poor/working class Latinos & Blacks who rely on government programs, and some young professionals trying to move up (they're also heavily liberal, particularly unmarried White & Asian women).
Pratt's critique is factually correct but it doesn't matter because a majority of L.A. voters benefit from the current dysfunctional liberal regime. They get government handouts & see crime/homelessness/high taxes as the price that the wealthy Whites should pay to fund their lifestyle. Simply put, demographic transformation has resulted in deterministic race socialism, an ossified identity politics that is divorced from the long-term well being of the city.
What's happening in L.A. is happening throughout the country. NYC, the country's largest and most important city, now has a foreign born socialist mayor elected by Third World immigrants & unmarried college educated White women.
This is also why right wing commentary is cringe & low IQ, as it fails to honestly discuss these issues and instead dances around it, engaging in pathetic bouts of copium. Whenever a right wing pundit or "strategist" mouths off, I have one question for them: if you were the dictator of the U.S., what policies would you implement to ensure the conservative vision you advocate for?
There are only TWO, I repeat, TWO correct answers:
-Immigration moratorium
-Rollback of the feminization of American institutions, especially universities
That's it. Don't come at me with dumbass shit like "more tax cuts," "increase defense spending," "giving tax breaks to couples who have kids." Nah bro, stop with that boomer retard drivel. This isn't 1984 when Regan won 49 states on a message of standard economic conservatism. Wake the fuck up and know what time it is.
