Wetneck Redback

I never said the truth would be popular, but I’m going to cram it down your throats anyway. By allowing nonsense to flourish, we’ve ceded ground to those who do not value human life. That was a mistake.

My hope in 2024 was that the Democrats’ humiliating defeat would cause them to reflect and purge the trendy new arrogant cruelty from their ranks. The way they pushed voters across the aisle was impressively inept. Unfortunately, they’ve only gone further in that direction, embracing even more radical candidates and positions, who see even less value in human life. While this should have continued turning voters away, they were turned right back by the onslaught of messaging and policy gaffes by the Trump administration, amplified by toxic discourse orchestrated by the influencers and podcasters who profit from the division such discourse exacerbates. In other words: nobody wants to solve the biggest problem making our streets less safe, our schools into indoctrination centers, and our lives less prosperous, because it serves them better to keep it all that way. It’s no different from the legacy media’s playbook for the last 20 years.
