Blue MAGA may dominate legacy media (which is done by design because it sets the limit to how left-wing you are allowed to be), but the GOP all the way to the most bloodthirsty psychopaths have a monopoly on new media. It is making our youth think violence, hate groups, and nazism is "hip and cool" while tolerance is seen as something for losers.
PragerU, Ben Shapiro, Richard Spencer, Jordan Peterson, Nick Fuentes, /pol/, these people are considered to be omniscient and are among the media icons of milennials and gen z (yes, I know Peterson is much older and PragerU isn't a person), but the problem is these people have won the culture war just telling people what they want to hear. We are outnumbered and as much as I want to challenge these views, I don't think I can reliably do that.
To anyone that has converted a younger hog, how did you manage to do that? I've had speculation that if I was friends with one and had one-on-one chats in let's say an Overwatch team chat or whatever they'd be more likely to listen. Alternatively, we could try to use any burner accounts and subscribe them to any leftist channel on Youtube or Twitter and see if we can skew the algorithm less in the right's favor.
Other than that, I would say that the left could do with better PR and steal some tricks from the right on how to get better publicity. Cherry pick the cringiest MRAs, the most ungrateful landlords, etc.
Idk, I get that this is an unrefined thought, but I don't really have the language to put this in better terms.
There's a point to be made that the Alt-Right is within the range of acceptable viewpoints under a capitalist hegemony, and therefore won't face similar suppression to left wing groups. And since they're the only group calling out some ghouls in the public consciousness, for as cynical reasons it may be, there is movement towards them.
On the other hand, we kinda do have a bit of a breakthrough in new media :azan:
