Most conservatives “work”, have responsibilities and people to provide for. So when we are in this aspect of our lives, we have little time to devote to creativity. How many, married, well-centered people are actors? Authors? Screen writers? They’re all self-centered, narcissistic, bleeding heart liberals with no actual accountability, to any one else.
So of course the left has a stranglehold on all aspects of the entertainment industry. But in the past, the looneys were tempered by strong, conservative, studio leadership. (You know, that nagging need to satisfy the audience and make $).
This made sense over 50 years ago, when democracy still existed on both sides. Conservatives could be in the same business as the left and accept suggestions. The conservative might not have been a great artist, but they were an important part of the creative process despite the differences. The same applies to women in creative circles: when there is a healthy clash of ideas without fear of retaliation, good concepts usually emerge. The problem is that this has ended; ideology is now rewarded and only one side is accepted, creating an inbred environment and circles where saying anything against an ideology or idea can cost you your job, ensuring that no one can question anything. When you let a leftist—especially one from our current era—do whatever they want, we see that their supposed talent means nothing because they end up sabotaging themselves. Since their ideology takes precedence over their own creativity, they end up butchering their works and creating plot holes and bad writing just to shoehorn in their propaganda.
I will never be able to forget Steven Universe. Years ago, I dared to watch that series and, despite all the red flags about what it was and is, there was genuinely a plot that was interesting and showed promise. In fact, without even realizing it, the authors established a myth of revolution because approaching it that way was a good plot twist. But this shift was, in turn, the death of the series. They will never admit it, but from the moment they introduced that element, they began to change the narrative, making certain characters look worse and giving us a finale that was terrible—one that, viewed from outside their country, was unanimously labeled a disaster for the plot and a condemnation of the lore. When I began to learn about politics outside my country and was able to travel to America, I understood that the writers made that ending because they took for granted that the allegory was universal; it wasn't, because it isn't. To be blunt, you could say that part of the problem with the series' villain is: "You are too white." When I understood this, I put my hands to my head and said: "This can’t be, you seriously flushed your story down the toilet just to include that."
In this article, you touch on how conservatives have surrendered the creative narrative to the left, and I agree with you: it is a problem, and it's a mistake that neutrals make as well. That today's entertainment stinks is half the fault of the left and the companies that permit their discourse, but the other half of the problem is the rest of us. We aren't doing anything—not even stopping our consumption of the garbage they give us—because we have inherited that labor from those people. We must start drawing and creating new things or, at the very least, as in my case, stop consuming garbage firsthand. Some time ago, I saw a content creator explain another reason why the left ended up with this advantage. Historically, the artist always depended on patrons, which kept certain attitudes in check; however, those patrons weren't as large or as devoid of values as the ones today. This is important because there is a correlation between "effeminate" or bizarre attitudes among these people, but this behavior is linked to the fact that it often involved digging into the bottom of the barrel for ideas, and in other cases, because it made them stand out—like Dalí, for whom it was more of a personal brand than actually being insane.
But the general opinion remained: to be an artist, you are going to suffer, be a weirdo, and not earn well. That’s what being an artist is like; it was never lucrative. If we analyze many of them, we realize they weren't very opulent in their beginnings; in fact, some never left that state, and others, like Da Vinci, had side jobs to get by. This reached our times with two bad and discouraging stereotypes. The first and most false of all was saying that being an artist makes you gay. This is especially ironic because the idea of Stranger Things in its first season was supposedly to show that the "geek artist" stereotype was stupid... only for the bullies to be proven right two seasons later. Anyway, Netflix and its creatives, as usual. And the second: don't go into art, you'll starve, become an engineer, a lawyer, or anything else more profitable. This last point is a problem because, unlike the previous one, it does contain a kernel of truth. It is hard to live off art, and combined with the previous points and the fact that today many artists are insufferable "walking stereotypes," it causes ordinary people and conservatives to feel contempt for artists. And that is a problem because they are hitting themselves with friendly fire. As I said, we are the other half of the problem and, without realizing it, we are defaming a sector that is vital for escaping the pit we are in. To top it off, because they are in the media, they end up infecting other sectors with their propaganda; that’s why related fields like programming are full of these people too, because of the proximity—though here, they end up damaging themselves due to their own schizophrenia.
Anyway, this last part isn't entirely my own opinion and is somewhat distant, as it isn't a local observation for the reader, but it felt like something necessary to contribute.
I see it as we Christians think that we can work creatively with the Godless... happily, to go along to get along... just give up Jesus is all. And so we easily do... but as we make amazing stuff... well... They just take it. All of it. And take credit for it. All of it.
Our creativity can only spawn from a Church setting or ministry or source. Only then, do we have a smidgeon of a chance that it won't be stolen or glammed on by the LGBQT++. Otherwise, as we see with all IPs... the LEFT will coyly move in, because they're really nice actually and caring and loving and just want to help and be free too... THEN TAKE IT OVER completely to destroy it.
Only with the foundation of Jesus can we repel, rebuke such, and have creativity that sticks with the Glory of God.
So, whatever cool awesome creative thing one wants to do... do it as a ministry or project at Church, and/or in fellowship with other men... from Church.
And always have prayer to Christ involved!
Otherwise... put it on a silver platter and hand it to the nearest purple/blue/pink died lesbian.
Great article. We see the same thing with coffee. Apparently the overpriced coffee is so good because the guy making it has pink hair. Do these ppl never go in a Ethiopian coffee shop or any other migrant one?
I do not go to an Ethiopian coffee shop or any other migrant one. However I will go to a all white or all black 100% Americano diner! And get coffee just fine.
That's not the point I was trying to make. Get your coffee from wherever.
Point is , you dont have to go to a he/she pronouns guy to get good coffee. You can get high quality coffee from anywhere. Its not this binary of he/she pronouns tasty coffee or mom and pop piss.
Though no matter how good I get ppl like you will always feel the need to insert and talk about yourself. It's always a "but me though" even though no one asked.
I think the difference is in the critical filter applied to creativity by the Left vs. the Right. Leftists tend to be uncritical of ideas that undermine or openly oppose traditions, sometimes even mistaking simple contrariness for creativity. Rightists tend to be more likely to uphold traditions, sometimes refraining from asking hard questions about institutions and establishments.

Now we have bob iger’s.

I go to Casey’s. I’ve never like the pretense associated with coffee.
I do not go to an Ethiopian coffee shop or any other migrant one. However I will go to a all white or all black 100% Americano diner! And get coffee just fine.

You need to work on your points! ;P
Definitely true, my verbal skills suck.
Though no matter how good I get ppl like you will always feel the need to insert and talk about yourself. It's always a "but me though" even though no one asked.
I’m doing my part, however small
