A Voice in the Wilderness In Defense of "Mere Conservatism"

Andrew Klavan on The Culture

Conservatives have been unable to stake a claim in popular culture for decades.  The result has been a near-totalitarian control of information from one side of the political-ideological spectrum.  Through film, television, education, and the news media, a narrative has been constructed that is anti-capitalistic, anti-traditional family, anti-orthodox, and anti-conservative.  Regardless of your own values and belief system, you have been affected by this narrative.  It has seeped into your consciousness and conscience.

But is the narrative accurate?  And if it isn't, what are you doing to guard the hearts and minds of your kids/nephews/nieces/grandkids, as well as your own?  What alternative narrative are you presenting to the people inside your sphere of influence?

Author/blogger Andrew Klavan is a brilliant, creative mind who for the past two years or so has been churning out consistently stellar YouTube videos that tackle various cultural issues and misnomers about the Right.

Here's one entitled: "Liberal Fantasies v. Reality: Can You Spot The Difference?"

The battleground for this country is only occasionally at the ballot-box.  The real fight is for the hearts and minds of the next generation of voters and taxpayers.

For the parents out there: equip yourself so you can equip your kids.

For the young people out there: rejecting the Left's cultural, historical, moral narrative will be one of the key turning points in your life.  Start now and don't wait until you're 30.
