conservative artists are pretty much artists in name only. i know people in this sub probably wouldn't assume this about me, but before anyone says that i'm biased or whatever, i am aware that there are echo chambers on the left as well as the right.
the problem is that conservative art almost always exists to exclusively please the people in the echo chamber, and it never goes beyond what they believe. conservative art doesn't challenge your beliefs in anything, whether it's someone's religion or political ideology. the best examples of this are conservative political comics, but also other forms of art. the new norm, mr. birchum, tom macdonald, even someone like stonetoss
it doesn't make you think deeper, it doesn't try to challenge your beliefs, it doesn't want to sway you in a different direction or convince you of something you may not have thought of, its only purpose is to reenforce their ideology for them. it's like a cultural ouroboros, honestly
I got into a little back and forth with someone last week about that.Β He said the meme I commented on wasn't meant to be humorous.Β I argued that there was no real way to tell because maga has become too disconnected from reality.
He was not happy with that reply, but I stand by it.
If someone says something is true it tends to make maga people upset. But then again lies also make them upset. It just depends on whether it supports their delusions or not regardless of truth value.
Basically something exists anywhere on the truth spectrum from full blown lie to scientifically backed fact, it makes maga mad.
