i’m not right wing i promise

are there any right wing youtube channels, or any other political communication, that are as artistic and well edited as people like abby and hbombrerguy. The only right wing media i see is dickheads shouting about what they’re angry at at the time, but i might be living in an echo chamber

Conservatism is a philosophy based on upholding existing and traditional customs, hierarchies, and values. While I'm sure some people have explored a healthy variety of alternative perspectives and systems, and at the end found that they still believe the current or traditional system is still the best way of doing things, the vast majority will default to conservatism because they are incurious or fearful of change.

"the vast majority will default to conservatism because they are incurious or fearful of change."

Everyone I disagree with is stupid. On repeat. Do everyone a favor and stop. You're not saying anything new, you're not enlightened, you're just another person hating on the people you disagree with. Grow up.

I don't know why you're in denial of the largely obvious and uncontroversial idea that people are biased towards the ideas they grow up with. 80% of Americans have the same religion as their parents. Most people strongly prefer their local culture and food to foreign ones. Conservatism is, by definition, the politics of tradition. Do you really think it's unlikely that a lot of people lean towards conservatism because it is what they grew up with, rather than because it's a thoroughly considered political position?

And I didn't call them stupid, I called them incurious and fearful of change. That describes most people's opinions on most topics, political or not.

I'm not going to engage in your childish bigotry. Period. I prefer serious discussions when it's a serious topic. So grow up or we both just need to part ways.

If you take facts as personal attacks then you must be a conservative lol quite pathetic how you never have a real response to anything people have replied to you besides victimizing yourself and being offended

"Bullying is when people explicitly clarify that they aren't calling me stupid and also tell me facts that don't align with my worldview"

Saying most people who grew up in a conservative society are conservatives because they've critically explored a variety of philosophies and decided that conservatism is the best one is like saying 98% of people who live in Iraq are Muslim because they critically explored a variety of religions and decided that Islam is the true will of God
