re: Do you plan on watching the Oscars tonight?

It’s not a “ perceived “ Culture War, it’s a legitimate Culture War. The Left controls the popular culture, The Institutions, the dominant media culture, Academia, social media platforms, Entertainment, The Arts, Tech etc. And they have declared war on traditional American principles, traditions, ideals and Institutions. Which makes those of us who believe in such outdated ideas as The Second Amendment or the peaceful transfer of power or the radical notion that there are two sexes and 50 other unpopular things, uncomfortable.

Those of us who disagree with the endless Virtue Signalling and enforced Progressive Orthodoxy are essentially Cultural dissidents. The predominant culture is inherently hostile to our views and so we choose to do other things . We either opt in by supporting things like The Academy Awards or opt out by doing things like enjoying dinner with our families.

So you enjoy having deca - millionaire rapists lecture you on women’s rights . You enjoy having guys with personal armed details lecture you on the need to curb the Second Amendment. Imma eat dinner . In fact, it’s dinner right about now .
