David Atkins: Conservatives Have Lost the Culture War

Could very well be right.

The argument, clarified and abbreviated: 

   The left controls the culture. The left is stupid. So the culture is stupid. (Of course 'the culture' here means: pop culture...) The young 'uns are also stupid. And easily manipulated. And the people who shape pop culture cater to and manipulate them. So conservatives are and will lose the war.

   Sounds about right.

   There's a lot of hysteria in there about Elon Musk, too. But Taylor Swift = the left vs. Elon Musk = the right seems pretty solid. All we've got is arguments. They've got breezy, pseudo-profound slogans like "love is love" and shit. 

   So, yeah. 

   We're probably going to lose.
