In a killer interview with Mark Granza on IM—1776, Michael Anton lays out precisely why the GOP donor class wing of Globalist American Empire must be repealed and replaced in response to Granza asking him if he finds the inability of the so-called “Right” to produce good art a little strange given that ‘some might say’ art itself is inherently right-wing, saying:
It is strange…That is to say, if you want to make it as a novelist or as a screenwriter or just make movies, etc., you have to go through the established systems, and then you’re basically locked out. This is partly a failure of the conservative donor class. They’re only interested in short-term electoral and policy victories. Nobody on the Right would invest to support the writing of somebody over the course of a decade as he publishes short stories and builds a reputation which may lead to a breakthrough down the line or not. The Right would immediately say, “That’s a waste of money!” Conservative donors need to think more like venture capitalists. Venture capitalists invest in all kinds of things that never go anywhere. But they’re looking for those unicorns, and you never know who the unicorn might be. If conservatives invest in one hundred young writers or artists, maybe only one of them ever really hits it big, but that jackpot could be so big that it’s truly transformative for the culture. But they don’t think that way, they just absolutely don’t. They want something very concrete that they can put in a report to say, we’ve got this bill passed or this thing defeated. And they want it in six months. It’s a huge failure.
If you ask us, Anton is being truly kind by declaring that this kind of ‘in love with losing’ normie con thinking is only ‘partly a failure of the conservative donor class’. In fact, show us a normie con (i.e. not a populist that likes reading stuff like this) that actually believes that the Neoliberal Globalist American Empire Koch Dynasty (the same one that has just disavowed critical race theory bans) gives a flying rat’s ass about America and we’ll show you a liar (whether they’re lying to themselves or each other makes no difference to us, they’re lying).
