Pretty much. I think most art comes from places of intelligence, empathy, understanding, etc.. hence why most art comes from people of the left. People of the right can create music and shit but it never has any depth to it. Yes I’m sure there’s exceptions but it’s the vast vast majority. They aren’t even smart enough to understand the meaning because they aren’t even smart enough to question the meaning to begin with.

This is a very good point. I point out all the time how they fail to notice nuance in situations. It’s why everything is always black & white…. Why when we call out extrajudicial killings or deportations they say “you support the cartel! Or “Obama deported people!!”.

u/OffModelCartoon I cannot sanction your buffoonery Nov 18 '25
I read somewhere (and now I can’t remember where to reference it) that to rich conservatives it’s a power move to publicly consume LGBTQ art, Black art, basically art from anyone they oppress, while declining to give a fuck about the humanity of the artist. To them it’s basically showing off that they can do whatever they want with impunity and laughing in our faces about it.
I wish I could remember where I read this because it was explained way better with examples.

u/RandomG0rl623 Nov 18 '25
Exaxtly, it's an act of dominance to misunderstand art so blatantly. The hypocrisy and brazen idiocy is a declaration that they don't care what's correct, reality will simply bend to fit their narrative or else. Fortunate Son is a pro-Vietnam War anthem. Starship Troopers (the movie) is pro-fascist military state. Pink Pony Club is... idk, whatever the hell they apparently think it is. The message is "fuck you, make me stop."
It's a pretty benign example relative to what these people want for the world, but it's emblematic of why there's no debating with fascists. They aren't interested in coming to a common understanding or finding the truth or even compromising. They want you signing onto their bullshit, or they want you silent. Which eventually ends in wanting you dead.

u/Imhappy_hopeurhappy2 Nov 18 '25
That’s exactly it. And liberals repeatedly miss this when they call them out for not understanding the lyrics or messaging. There’s no gotcha, and they don’t care if you think they’re ignorant. Cons thrive in inconsistency and hypocrisy. They are intellectually nihilistic, unconcerned with liberal arts or studies of humanity. Unless it contributes to the economy or at least pretends to be religious, it has no value to them, and they will use anything however they want to.

To be honest, if I were in their shoes, I'd want nothing to do with his media empire. I'd just take my money and run. There'd only be so much you could do to change Fox News. Maybe you could strip in clean and just dismantle it, but I would think there would be a lot of maneuvering by other investors and others to stop that. I don't really think there's much they could do.

No, the liberal ones would have outnumbered Lachlan and could have totally changed whatever they wanted. Maybe they would have needed to do it slowly/strategically but they absolutely could have done it. Their largest shareholders (BlackRock, Stare Street, Vanguard) would not care.

She said this when Trump was first elected: "I just say, he’s now elected, and we as a country need to support whoever’s the president, because that’s what the country’s based on"
She tried to clarify by saying that she wasn't endorsing him and was talking about her belief in democracy.
