Back in 2016, left was pushing cringe SJW which failed to take the high ground.
"The emperor had no clothes" IDW exploded in this context. It was "punk rock" to rebel. /1

2016 argument with lefty would be one of moral outrage

...infographics, short videos, etc. when a false narrative being pushed, we should be flooding viral media.
2. Content is mostly red meat for our own bubbles. Gotta reach many people, think not of what MAGA wants to hear, think of what ppl in CNN bubble NEED TO HEAR. /6

3. We too often very stale. Gotta be creative, emotional. Make people laugh and cry, really brings the walls down.
