You're the average of your 5 closest friends. Show me an offline right wing circle where more than 1 person doesn't think the arts are a waste of time or questions the sexual orientation of someone wanting to be an author.
All the right wing artsy people died in Vietnam and there was never any new stock.
When you don't have a network you don't have power. Simple as.

>>25189388
thats just a stupid statement
lots of righties publish and get books bought by PACs to get on best sellers lists

you dumb fucking fuck

You're not far from wrong. Out of all my pals, I know 2 others who are right-wing and artsy. And as you can imagine, we don't get invited to a lot of artistic events involving mutual friends/acquaintances, despite on a whole being objectively more talented than most of them; who write freeverse slop poetry akin to Rupi Kaur and makes music about class conscious issues in the most boring way possible.
It's 100% about networking, and as left-wing values makes it easier to establish more artsy friends (most left-wing people value creativity despite never seriously engaging with creative ideas, they just enjoy the aesthetic of being creative), it is easier for them to form networks.

Leftoids treat their politics as religion and ban dissidents accordingly

aquinas didnt have to take that vow of chastity to dedicate his life to writing the summa, he was the junior son on an aristocrat anyway, and the xp section about marriage might of been better if he hadn't've stayed unmarried

Identical tactics as Christians in fourth century. Went from a minority of no more than 20% to over 60% by the 5th century, in the 6th they became 90% thanks to Justinian Plague. Though there were still pagans in remote place in the middle ages.

Right wingers are too busy banning books.

>>25189388
Its why I self publish. I don't necessarily care about sales, most philosophers and historians make their mark posthumously and I just feel good about being creative.

Few point this out

There are effete right wing intellectuals who read the neoplatonists and debate each other over catholic dogma, and then there's the reactionary base which is an Amazon Prime cargo cult which is content with ai slop songs about Charlie Kirk and Kincade paintings.
These two groups are culturally irreconcilable. The base think the intellectuals are faggots and the intellectuals pretend to have a noble savage view of the base but ultimately must sublimate their contempt by directing it at libtards, queers, "dinergoths" etc.

Huh?

because liberals read and conservatives watch TV. you've fallen for the 4chan "the right are the REAL guardians of western culture" meme. like it or not, the vast, vast, vast majority of people who care about literature, poetry, art, philosophy, etc are left-wing. the people who can confidently answer "who are Heidegger, Browning, Klee, and Montaigne?" represent maybe 2% of the population, and I'd bet $100 that if you asked them their politics you'd find that they're all liberals. good reading on this --

Didn't say it wasn't hypocritical.

Case in point.
>>25189564
Indeed. Problem is the former group still prefers to have a shelf that's 98% self improvement stuff and theology and 2% old potboiler anthologies and LOTR.
The sole exception is the funky Mormon Fantasy cadre and people like Jerry Pournelle.
Overall it's just not enough people to stage a takeover.

Right wingers cannot create art. This is not debatable. History bears it out.

They suppress right-wingers through various means. Matt Dinniman just had to apologize for being 1% unwoke. Leftists are extremely authoritarian and if your book has right-wing ideas it gets thrown out. If you are right-wing, you get thrown out. Most people don't want to brave that kind of hostile environment. That has shaped the landscape of both readers and writers. Leftists will play dumb about all of this (like everything) and go "erm the conservitoid brain can't handle the written word."
