why does pop culture side with Liberals?
Liberalism has an appeal to it. Its easier to argue. Its easier to argue for do-gooding Socialistic policies in the marketplace. Why not raise the minimum wage? It would be great to give those poor people a pay raise. Why not ban smoking in restaurants and bars? Those poor workers are at a health risk. Conservatives have to argue that these do-good attempts to help the masses dont help.
It is always easier to call for more spending. Liberals always rationalize spending on programs because they would be great to have. Universal access to College for example. A Conservative argues that deficit spending cannot be afforded, and it is irresponsible to shirk the burden to the next generation. But the emotional appeals and the nice idea are often more appealing.
It is easier to have a culture of "whatever" than to be responsible. It seems insensitive to have English as the legal language. What if Immigrants can not read signs or legal documents? The argument of emotion is easier than the argument of long-term consequences of immigrants that are not assimilated.
The pop culture elite has always sided with Liberals. What can be done when pop-culture uses its ability to speak to mass audiences to wage a campaign of disinformation?
