It may help to view this as coming from a place of fear and alienation. For a significant part of the audience, women are an "other" that has to be explained in terms of that audience's insecurities.

https://twitter.com/thehill/status/1763226653205967083 "The White House is demanding Fox News retract its coverage of bribery allegations against President Biden’s son, Hunter, in the wake of the arrest of a key figure in the accusations against the Biden family. Calling the allegations against Hunter Biden “false,” White House special assistant to the president Ian Sams blasted the network for covering claims of bribery against the president’s son both online and over its airwaves “aggressively.” “I would cite the number of times Jesse Watters and Sean Hannity promoted this allegation and made false statements about President Biden on primetime television throughout this time period, but the footnote citations would fill multiple pages,” Sams wrote in his letter to Fox News top brass, which was obtained Thursday by The Hill. “As you of course now know, the source of this allegation has been federally indicted for making the whole thing up,” Sams continued. “Despite this, Fox has taken no steps to retract, correct, or update its reporting on this false allegation from 2023.” The FBI informant at the center of the GOP’s allegations against Biden, Alexander Smirnov, was indicted Feb. 14 by federal authorities, who say his claims about Biden came from Russian intelligence personnel."

'Elvis took a picture with Muhammad Ali, but that doesnt make him a boxer.' https://twitter.com/RiverfrontTimes/status/1763197265261310379 https://twitter.com/RiverfrontTimes/status/1763241859449553437 https://www.riverfronttimes.com/news/missouri-gop-candidate-for-governor-is-only-honorary-kkk-member-42007057 "A 2022 article on the Anti-Defamation League's website shows McClanahan next to a man in white robes as both men give what appear to be Nazi salutes in front of a burning cross some time around 2019. " "The RFT reached out via text message and asked McClanahan if he was the man pictured in front of the burning cross in the image shared by Dogan. McClanahan replied, “It's an invisible empire Yes it's me.” But he denied ever being in the KKK. "No I am not and I have never been," he wrote back. He then sent us a photo of Elvis squaring off in mock fisticuffs with Muhammad Ali. " "Later on in the evening, McClanahan sent us the following statement addressed directly to Dogan: “Shamed Dogan I would like to respectfully request that you cease and desist from making defamatory statements about me on the X platform. Your statement about me being a cross-burning KKK member and white supremacist is false and damaging to my reputation.” The message went on to ask that Dogan stop spreading “further misinformation,” apologize and contact McClanahan directly with any further concerns.

lol "I'm not actually a member of this Nazi organization. I wholeheartedly agree with all of their beliefs and participate in all of their hate crimes and they pretty much consider me to be one of them but I technically don't belong to their organization, so calling me one of them and/or pointing out our similarities is defamation."

If you're deserving of an abortion in their hosed up worldview you can pay to get safe ones in states that aren't christofascist hellholes. If you're poor then gently caress you die none of them care. You know boomers fought for abortion, right? Roe was a boomer, one of her lawyers was a boomer and the other was effectively a boomer.

I can't believe were still in "Elvis, Little Richard and Jerry lee Lewis are making these kids dance all sex crazy" mode but I guess the nature of conservative is the idea of never changing and speaks to the idea conformity as a virtue of sorts. When I saw that video, I was reminded of the one or two times I would up some country bar and was struck how the concept of "dancing" was more like marching. Everyone was doing the same steps as a group in a predetermined way, in lock step. Now, sure, choreography is a thing and can be great, but my read was that they were more invested in not being an individual, standing out or, worse, having to dance in a way that's improvisational, based on feel, passion and rhythm or in a way where they might look silly. If you're just doing the planned steps (as a group), you can skip any of that poo poo. They're following the RULES it seemed to me. Probably over analyzing it but, to me, it didn't look like FUN, and even though there was a communal aspect to it, that was based on everyone being the same (right down to the clothes). I also don't like country music so that didn't help. EDIT Also, this should terrify everybody because this is what people who listen to RWM think. This is the Alabama Supreme court judge who ruled that frozen embryos are people quote:Parker repeatedly invoked scripture in his ruling, arguing that Alabama law is based on theology that says God created every person “in His image.” He and the other justices in the 8-1 majority said that life begins at conception and that therefore frozen embryos are protected under the law.

I don't think that's overanalyzing it - despite the fact that they claim up and down all day long to be RUGGED INDIVIDUALS who aren't SHEEP, they are in reality deeply and desperately followers and nothing more.

Can I just say -- having spent almost all of my childhood/young adulthood in the proximity of Kansas City Kansas and Kansas City Missouri -- that reading accusations that someone is smuggling people into Kansas for more human medical treatment and better civil rights is still incredibly jarring.

Thankfully most self identified gamers tend to pick up new games and filter into different spaces. The RWM pipeline can only grab so many before this atomization exposes them to positive spaces or a flood of statistically normal people and they get good information before they get disinformation. Also helps that many spaces filter out the true toxic assholes naturally, while the relatively inert gamer simply sinks to the bottom. I have seen a chan derived space detoxify, and it helped detoxify me, during a change in moderation. Youth tend to present positions more strongly than they actually hold them.

There was no shortage of teens and dudes in their 20s who were cheerleading the Bush admin. You'd think the proliferation of right-wing influencers would move the needle but Trump really didn't do any better among young voters than Romney or McCain did. The biggest shift among young Americans is that women now more identify as leftist since Roe v Wade was struck down.

Yeah, a few months ago when Charlie Kirk and the associated shitheads were absolutely over the moon at polling showing a "huge surge of conservatism amongst teens and young men", it was solely about self-identification and the number was around 30%. Self-identified liberals sat at about 15%. So that's a whopping 55% of respondents with the answer of "Eh I dunno", which doesn't really strike me as The Youths finally internalizing that conservatism is the new punk rock. And then when you looked at those figures throughout past years, surprise surprise, the self-identification rate of teenagers is heavily affected by the politics of whoever is president at the time.
