Starts off with right-wing social media influencers and how they are winning the "war"
----------
Democrats often act like we’re too good to participate in the culture war. Culturally and politically, we are the majority. People who support pluralism, who accept diversity, who want to help other people and not just themselves, are the monoculture of institutions of learning, Hollywood and the financial elite. Contraception access is a wildly popular policy. But the war is being waged and it’s a classic case of asymmetrical warfare. We are playing on their battlefield (social media) with early stage weapons.
Democratic influencers (the few of us that there are) simply aren’t as mobilized, hungry and supported as the ones being trained in the Turning Point USA model. The messaging is scatterbrained, the targeting minimal. We are using slingshots against their tanks.
I can’t turn away from the conservative influencers because they have created good branding and marketing for terrible things. They are the very definition of propaganda and, worst of all, the most powerful ones are women. This is a Barbie pink army coming to take away your rights.
