“I hate to be the bearer of bad news but the culture war is over and conservatives lost . “
Not in Florida. MAKE AMERICA FLORIDA
Massively more envelopes containing ballots that are marked for Trump than are marked for Dimentia Xiden are the only things that matter in 2024.
Sad that it has come to this.
Pop culture is most prevalent now in the US but its overall quality is low.
Many very painful truths in this article.
ALL empires fall in time...no exception. For an interesting study check this out.

The article acts is if Trump were the only political figure or non political figure battling the culture war opposing all the “woke” agendas, which is not true, or that he always has, not true, or that he communicates best against it, also not true. To the extent Trump opposes the woke culture war, he is more giving what he knows or thinks the Conservatoive base wants, because it is good for him politically, than he is coming from a principled Conservative philosophy that identifies why the Left’s woke culture war must be opposed. Opposing the Left’s woke colture war is good and “popular” politically if you need the GOP Conservative base’s support. Trump is a populist. If WE were not opposing the Left’s woke culture war, neither would Trump be opposing it and his reason would be that we weren’t.
Conservatives Lost the Culture War and the Trump Agenda Is the Only Path Forward
———————————————————————
How is this possible when the Trump Agenda includes supporting Disney?
Churches willingly forfeited their First Amendment rights during Covid. It was pitiful.
Now the left is emboldened to go after Speech.
Cowards all.
I would add oil/gas independence. Drill baby, drill.
Don’t look to Trump to fix this. At least DeSantis is doing something.
From the long view, the culture war is the only thing that matters. It’s the difference between life and death.
And what side of the culture war is the author on?
"I hate to say ..." usually means "I'm giggling with glee to say, but I'm also gaslighting you so I'll claim that I hate to say ..."
And yet, numerous Freepers dislike DeSantis, because he’s allegedly controlled by RINO Karl Rove and Paul Ryan types. So who knows what to believe about anyone.

I don’t know enough about DeSantis to have an opinion of his views on culture war issues. But so many Freepers say that Trump has the right enemies, DeSantis has the wrong friends, it makes me wonder who is on what side, of which issue. There seems no real consensus on Free Republic.
But those FReepers are also hard-core Trump enthusiasts, so their comments are not unbiased.
He’s telling us we need to throw in the towel on cultural issues and embrace Trump’s social liberalism if we want to Make America Great Again.
The war isn’t over until a side surrenders. The author is correct that our leaders have failed us. Yet, on three cultural fronts we have made progress: home schooling has gone from fringe to a preferee option, restrictive carry laws have been relaxed even the hold out states and more states adopt Constitutional carry, Roe is overturned and we are in stage 2 of a generational fight.
The left didn’t quit when Clinton signed DOMA into law, they kept at it. Yes, they have weapons that we don’t have. They share dome weaknesses, as their leaders can be bought. Just as many 60s hippies grew up, the same will happen to many Gen Z, including some eunuchs who will suffer buyers’ remorse. Work, pray, persevere.
