LINK Pod Can’t Save America

"The new kings and queens of feel-good infotainment increasingly resemble the guest list of an upscale DNC fundraiser. To name a few: Barack and Michelle Obama, the Clintons, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, Joe Biden, Cory Booker, and Pete Buttigieg have podcasts, streaming TV shows, books, or all of the above.

The streaming services are paying big name Dems and friends lots of cash because “content centered on social messages — racial justice, gender equity, environmental stewardship — has been hot in Hollywood for some time,” according to the New York Times.

The past generation of liberal elites are happy to answer the bell. The reason, according to them, is that the obstacles to political change stem from flaws in the culture: hyperpartisanship, social media–fueled “mind control,” and a lack of inspiring messages in the media about tolerance and diversity. In other words: free your mind and the votes will follow.

Even in office, the last generation of liberal elites seemed to prefer soft power to hard power. Now, no longer content with letting their Hollywood donors fight the culture wars for them, the Democrats are building their own DC to LA pipeline, and are abandoning the crumbling empire of politics to build a media empire.

But can the ruling class really save America by wielding the sword of Spotify?"
