The show, put on by the conservative organization to compete with Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl halftime performance, will feature performances by Kid Rock, Brantley Gilbert and Lee Brice. Gabby Barrett, 2021 winner of new female artist of the year at the Academy of Country Music Awards, will also perform.
Yeah…
Of course kid rock is going to headline.
Can I just ask a question though, have you noticed that turning point and the daily wire and such seem to be building a media landscape akin to evangelical Christians? Like they’re trying to build an alternative media landscape separate from the mainstream media landscape that reinforces their views much in the same way that evangelical Christians do.
That’s what they have been doing since at least the Ronnie Raygun era unleashed this.
They started all of the hate radio networks and poured money into, started Faux “News” and poured money into that (didn’t make money for 5 years and even then it probably only works because of the lack of ala carte programming on cable).
If you are starting a cult, and that’s what the Republican Party/conservative movement is, you don’t want anyone countering your propaganda. That’s why cults encourage their members cut off family contact and so on.
That’s part of the “culture war” repugs have been harping on about forever. Alternative art, alternative schools, alternative software… Always needing to create parallel spaces as they are ostracized out of the mainstream.
Which I’d be fine with if they’d just fuck off to their alternate universe and leave the rest of us alone.
We need another New World.
