Conservatives, outside of the feckless Conservative Inc. (Rush is in his own league), are too damn quiet. This sort of stuff needs to be the norm. Fuck with us, we hit you where it hurts.

A fellow Pede said something that made sense when BLM first started getting support from the mega corps - these groups may have lost touch with who their actual customers are because conservatives are quiet. And I 100% agree. Even when they "boycott" they just do it individually. Well the internet is helping change that. GOYA is a good example.

This might be a hard pill to swallow, but it needs to be said:

Do you hate β€œCancel Culture”? Well, THE most effective way to #CancelCancelCulture is to cancel better than the left. They only understand one thing β€” which is losing. If you make them lose, and lose, and lose, they will want to change the rules.

This applies to so many things in politics β€” really just about anything. It could be Ballot Harvesting. Don’t like Ballot Harvesting? Then make sure we Ballot Harvest 100x better than the left. History has shown time and time again that matching and raising twice as hard is the best way to negotiate back to the position you really want.

Yes! Preach! We are better than the left at basically everything.

Exactly. I've been saying this for years. Play their game better than them, and they will eventually beg to go back to the old system, which is what we wanted the whole time.

Not a hard pill to swallow at all. "When they go low, we kick them."

You may be on top something. Maybe an effective weapon against the NBA is demanding "racial equality and equity" - meaning black people should compromise ~13% of their teams.

I say this all the time: We need more diversity in sports.

IDK, I do think there was opportunism but conservatives are very quiet. And disorganized.

Different league from other conservative inc. pundits. His own league.
