This is right on the money. It's fascist propaganda. Roping you in and dragging you down to the mud with facts like "The gently caress? It's Canadian!" is exactly where they want conversations to go. The real message under the surface to their fash-followers is entirely emotional. It's "the bad people do a bad thing and want to be bad to do more bad." When everyone else reacts to the surface idiocy and bullshit factual errors it spreads the emotional message under the surface for them, drawing the lines of society the way they want them.

Pumping out an endless stream of this propaganda and forcing the rest of the world to exist in the fog of hatred it creates is how they operate.
Pretty much this. All of the right wing bullshit we all mock and tear apart every day is designed to be factually and logically absurd to keep us distracted in mocking and criticizing it, while it does its other job of emotionally pumping the fascists up to fight The Great Enemy (ie everyone who isn’t them, ie all of us).

What is the meaningful difference between an explicitly "conservative" movie and a movie like Skyfall? Or Taken? Or even John Wick?

The "sell stuff to your dad" genre is pretty well represented in Hollywood.

A movie being lowercase-c conservative movies it has rightwing political leanings.

A movie being capital-c “Conservative” means it’s blunt and explicit propaganda for GOP politics and right-wing culture war.

The guy in charge now is a right wing, strong armed authoritarian chud who MAY have been a communist at some point in time working under the communists -- but Trump was also left wing once until he got better/memory holed.

Most studies of Putin’s biography are clear that Putin never liked anything about the Soviet Union except that Russia was a world power that could control and threaten its neighbors. His domestic policies certainly prove he’s doesn’t like any of the socialist stuff like working people having decent living standards or Russia having an economic not completely based on oil exports and helping billionaires launder money into empty London real estate

It is hard to know any longer if women still exist, if they will always exist, if there should be women at all, what place they hold in this world, what place they should hold. “Where are the women?” asked a short-lived magazine recently. But first, what is a woman? “Tota mulier in utero: she is a womb,” some say. Yet speaking of certain women, the experts proclaim, “They are not women,” even though they have a uterus like the others. Everyone agrees there are females in the human species; today, as in the past, they make up about half of humanity; and yet we are told that “femininity is in jeopardy”; we are urged, “Be women, stay women, become women.” So not every female human being is necessarily a woman; she must take part in this mysterious and endangered reality known as femininity.

What is it about RWM that makes PhD level professionals take "in 2030, the government will own all private property" at face value? Can't tell you how frustrating it is to have to hear crazy right wing talking points while I'm fixing a professor's keyboard. Though I suppose they're technically correct in that America will be ruled by an oligarchy by that time, if not already.

Because they are petit bourgeoisie, their class position and the ideological position inherent to it practically requires them to believe the most insane RWM talking points no matter how much technical and theoretical knowledge they have in their field of expertise.

I read 1984 when I was a teenager in the George W Bush years, and my thoughts reading it were along the lines of “Hey, this thing seems like something the Bush administration is doing!” and I don’t get* people who don’t interpret the book as Orwell thinking up a Stalinist dystopia and accidentally predicting modern capitalist-imperialist dystopia.

Just had a thought: How long until anglophone conservatives try to force grammatical genders into the English language? It feels like a logical next step for them. Since they believe that Platonic Forms of masculine and feminine are real then surely they must reform language so that it’s clear whether any given inanimate object is a boy or a girl.

Like what is even a “tomboy” anymore, when more and more American women (especially millennials and Gen Z) do things like play sports and work out, wear pants for everyday outfits and only wear dresses on formal occasions, etc? Even that Southern farmer girl that has the chuds in a fit just seems like, I don’t know, a normal Southern girl who knows how to do the kind of things you do on a farm?

Again I think this is all due to the modern online right having more and more guys who fried their brains on anime and hentai. Otaku media (like the kind of anime 4chan types talk about) is like the only place where “tomboy” is still a type that’s really different from “the average girl” represented there, and these hentai brained guys ported their favorite hentai website tags onto categorizing American social reality.

In right winger world, laws that would define sex and gender so that trans people wouldn’t legally exist are “protecting women” from “men using women’s restrooms” and “males playing in women’s sports” and other things that transphobes hallucinate. Of course, laws that would protect women from actual harms like sexual abuse, being imprisoned for having an abortion, etc. are “woke” (and nowadays probably “DEI”).
