Sub Pop Cult with Michael McGruther

Unity is the glue that holds us together -- and discontent is the hammer that aims to smash us apart.

The Republican Party behaves like teenage social media influencers and always goes for the cheap and easy snark, when the people they claim to represent have stories and lives of their own that are ignored and forgotten by culture and that means they are ignored and forgotten by politicians. Consider the garbage man's life compared to the political garbage men's intentional strife. The song at the end is about suicide. Please don't skip it. The working class deserves to be heard.

You can’t unsee it. The Right has no power and its proven true daily. The conservative American who lives far from power does have a way out and it’s found in culture.

The collapse of Hollywood is the collapse of the agent run system. The agent run system has had a negative effect on the culture in America by leveraging power behind the scenes to influence what films reach consumers. A better dynamic is emerging where a studio system maintains the integrity of Hollywood's purpose as the nation's storyteller and the creator economy is where the big bucks can be made for those who cultivate their own audiences. A new era has arrived.

The success of The Sound of Freedom is a clever and hard won culture war win for conservative Americans far from power. The reaction from the monetized pundits on the right exposes where they really stand and it's not with their fellow Americans who wish to change the conversation and change the culture.

Republicans must find the thing.

When the beast is first defeated an odd silence fills the land because the terror is suddenly gone.

Get to know indie artist Alphonso Rachel, who opens up about the uphill climb all artists have who want to influence the culture. He observers that the American imagination is dominated by a left wing fantasy that runs on pure emotion. Conservatives would do well to get out of the facts business and into the feelings industry.
