The Daily Wire has been going through huge financial struggles which have resulted in many layoffs. However, most didn’t know what happened behind the scenes. The former CEO and co-founder of the company Jeremy Boreign recently revealed the issues with their movie and TV production as a hedge fund looking to buy or partner with the Daily Wire has said it lost $50 million dollars making a anti-woke Game of Thrones.

    sexy lady character pissed off the chuds by adding roughly 1/8" of cloth to her sexy swimsuit outfit.

    And yet soo many of them are morally outraged by pornography. The whole belief system is so inconsistent. At least back before the internet, the conservatives were mostly congruent in their prudishness.

      It’s as though the greater conservative movement has just straight up adopted the “it’s about controlling women’s bodies” feminist critique as a mandate.

      Typically they’re mad specifically about the OnlyFans variety of porn. Displays of feminine sexuality piss them off when it’s the women themselves in control of it.

        Uno reverse…Fallacy-naming fallacy

        I described the inconsistency of the group as a whole. I didn’t make assumptions about the hypocrisy of the individuals within the group.

          the ones mad about stellar blade aren’t the ones doing the porn habit tracking apps with their dad (like the speaker of the house). your “them” collapses the two groups into one, but it only applies to the weirdo christians.

            the ones mad about stellar blade aren’t the ones doing the porn habit tracking apps with their dad (like the speaker of the house).

            I was more talking about the Incel crowd, many of which are both upset about woke in their video games and also blame the porn industry for their misanthropic lifestyles. Just the other day an Incel tried to shoot up the headquarters of porn hub.

            Even if I had been talking about evangelicals, your claim that I was utilizing the goomba fallacy would still be incorrect. The goomba fallacy is when you automatically assume anyone associated with a group that is hypothetical are automatically hypocritical as individuals.

      It’s consistent when you understand that

      Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition, to wit: There must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect.
