I saw Moby play at a Weenie Roast concert, along with most of the big names from Alternative Music. He's a putz, certainly, but nowhere near the biggest idiot in the lot. The day was chock-full of Bush-bashing rants and socialist blather, all punctuated with the F word, raised fists and the finger.

Charming.

The culture war is deadly serious out there, people. Polite GOP tactics are laughed at.

America-haters have: Music, Network TV, Cinema, Education, Fine Arts, the Stage, Major Newspapers, Universities, FM Radio... all locked up in an ideological package. In short: the entire "culture".

The right has talk radio. If the right refuses to engage in battle, it deserves defeat.

I'm hoping the right doesn't stoop to the lows the left has.

Thank goodness for us this time. Children have a tendancy to rebel against cultural authority.
There's a payback time comming. When the pendulum swings too far to the left, it's going to literaly fly back tward the right at great speed.
Nature seeks balance, and you don't mess with mother natures natural laws.

This is the music I prefer--I've just always been drawn to the music involved, but I have denied myself access to it for a long time because of this very problem in "alternative music"(which is a laughable title really since it's incredibly mainstream anymore. It's a name that should have been dropped in the mid-90's, if not sooner.

The right has country music and the metal/hxc scene, for the most part. We also have the internet. I don't think things are as bad off as you think.

Well said and delineated. Their( the so called "culture producers") postmodernist version of culture shows no sign of slowing down but becoming even more hostile and intense. Fortunately not everyone swims in their cultural cesspool.
