RCP's Title: "The Culture Wars Have Barely Begun"
I don't think that's a good title for this--which the Atlantic titles "Denver Riggleman Has Seen The Future Of The Republican Party."
I tend to think two kinds of thoughts are appropriate here:
First: it seems blinkered to focus on the right's contributions to the culture war...which, currently, pale in comparison to the contributions of the left. Currently, the right is mostly just fighting against a barrage of crazy and radically transformative/destructive cultural reengineering efforts being pursued by the left. That wasn't always so--but it's so now.
Second: yeah...but there really is a strong stream of crazy on the right. I never took QAnon at all seriously...but I'm now thinking that was an error. Also--whereas many Pubs are right that there is prima facie evidence of electoral shenanigans--that's not the message that's dominating red-team web discussions right now. The message is, rather: (a) There was definitely fraud, and (b) if this is allowed to stand, that's the end of the republic. This is very, very dangerous.
