I Appreciate Young Conservatives But...

"In an increasingly dystopian world, it's time to work together and reverse course before it's too late!

It's time to make Orwell fiction again!" - A quote from some young conservative/libertarian.

...please please stop with the bumper sticker philosophy!

There are many reasons why people believe we have a "culture war" (beyond what I wrote in a previous opinion piece). One of those reasons is because young conservatives have no idea how to make money. So they blame it on an imaginary culture war for their short comings.

So what do young conservatives do to make money? They beg for donations by coming up with bumper stick philosophy. Then old farts say "Hey pretty clever I'll give them $5."

If you need money, come up with a very well thought out, researched and detailed plan (and the plan can be anything from a start up AI tech company to a porno showing motel). Once you do that, go to investors and make them invest in you. You can find investors anywhere, even at your church or McDonald's (trust me the franchise owner at McDonald's has eff you money that (s)he wants to throw away on your no money making projects...tax breaks are a great motivator. I'm ugly, black and old and still get investors who are not black, or ugly or old...so no excuse.)

SIDENOTE $5 for a 2 second thought is a pretty good hustle. If it took more than 2 seconds to come up with that Orwell slogan it was time not well spent.

That scheme of begging for money from memes, bumper stickers etc only dumbs down our society as a whole. For the love of humanity please have an original thought. Please do some research. Please stop trying to be a FOX News/CNN personality and just be yourself.

“It has forever been thus: So long as men write what they think, then all of the other freedoms - all of them - may remain intact. And it is then that writing becomes a weapon of truth, an article of faith, an act of courage.”
