Ive thought the same on many of these fem talking heads. Im sure the same said for the lib side. Its called the Digital age.. If not for the web and whats sprung from it.. Non of these folks would be known or famous etc etc. Same can be said for this page. Yet the sex sells is pre web and still works..In any field Pick golf and the massive T&A golf'ets that have sprung forth. The political world no different. Hollywood is LOADED with T&A less your rad lib do you really care to listen to what they say. No most probably tick you off so much and you care less how hot they may be. We also live i the world of cable news 24/7. And as someone said avg IQ 85-115 If all these gals were like a Buckley Jr they be holding 2nd jobs to make ends meet. WHY? the avg person would get board by them. PBS not known as a bastion of conservative or libertarian views. Still struggles. At getting large viewers. But they wanna retain the Buckley Jr standard. So No Tomi lahren on PBS. And remember William F. Buckley's home was PBS. So you need these gals to feed down ideas. You want them to ? or let Ocasio-Cortez ? to the massVentiManhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06844748008372842532noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8358039.post-69050452210838292512018-05-19T13:39:57.243-07:002018-05-19T13:39:57.243-07:00Great piece.

Obviously, he knows sex sells. He's said that before in his videos. He's also used a few pictures that cute fangirls have sent him, with his products, in order to sell them.<br /><br />No, I think the Captain's main complaint is actually directed at a significant number of Western "conservatives." Specfically, those who actually have such little self-control that they'll donate REAL money to almost any girl who can FAKE conservative values well enough for a camera, but not for real life.<br /><br />The question that the other comments haven't addressed is: if even a significant number of Western "conservatives" can't display enough self-control to keep their wallets shut for the real deal, who will?262noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8358039.post-7788217838802301342017-12-22T05:23:32.108-08:002017-12-22T05:23:32.108-08:00Booth babes don't design the product, they jus...Booth babes don't design the product, they just guide the eyes in the general direction towards it. I think these girls are an overall positive regarding introducing people to the benefits of smaller government and a freer society. Sex sells and they are being sexy/attractive while selling good ideas.<br /><br />I don't think there's much to worry about. The thinkers can still do their thinking and writing, and the booth babes can bring the eyes over to that content.

That is what has gotten us to where we are now.<br />They may not be developing the ideas, have the best understanding, or even be particularly good at coherently explaining them, but they are very good at promoting these ideas.<br />Charismatic spokespeople are used in business and politics because it works better than the alternative.<br />Complaining that it is unfair that they have an advantage promoting ideas solely because they are beautiful is no more valid a criticism than if they were to complain that you had an unfair advantage developing ideas solely because you were more intelligent.<br />Either you accept the reality of the world and navigate accordingly or you spend your time whining about how unfair life is.<br /><br />On a less serious note (it's only funny because it's true) if you were to "self-identify" as a beautiful 23 year old woman, you too would become a media darling and gain an out sized platform to promote yourself and your ideas.

People who often don't have a very deep knowledge of politics. Many of them are somewhat apolitical or even liberal-leaning. And for them, "tradthots" can be a gateway to more profound conservative/libertarian thinkers.<br /><br />2. Maybe, "tradthots" don't add anything new to the conversation, but they don't have to. The left is too irrational to be convinced by logic and arguments. But girls like Lauren Southern can do real damage to the left. When other girls see how easy it is for them to get lots of financially generous fans, some of them will give the right a chance. (Or what did you think why there are more and more of these girls?)<br /><br />3. The reason why the left isn't cool anymore isn't just because of what they do and say. It's equally about how they present themselves. To any sane person the left today looks like a bunch of boring, unsexy, tantrum-happy weirdos. So, as long as they're capable of forming coherent sentences, there could be worse figureheads than pretty young women with a large audience.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8358039.post-6797907892299649422017-12-21T16:49:27.062-08:002017-12-21T16:49:27.062-08:00I recognized maybe one of the names you mentioned....I recognized maybe one of the names you mentioned. I wasn't interested enough to google them. But your essay reeks of sour grapes and envy which does not become you. Focus on your own ideas, thoughts, and marketing, and stop whining that conservatives don't buy your books because you lack sex appeal. I used to read your blog everyday, but I finally stopped because you seem to really dislike women. As a woman, I finally couldn't overlook the undisguised disdain for my sex that permeates virtually all your work.

Are they not at least spreading truth beyond the borders where it would otherwise be available? You're starting to sound like all those who trashed the bill to dump Obamacare because it didn't go far enough, or who now screech and wail against the tax overhaul for the same reason. Do you not understand that the Communists have taken over this country generally one small step at a time? They demand everything, but then are willing to negotiate down to some lesser change that still moves the country in the direction they want. And then as soon as that's signed into law, they start the process all over again. How do you eat the elephant? One bite at a time.<br /><br />Be glad they are at least somewhat on the conservative side, instead of wearing Che. And how many of them are #NeverTrumpers?
