This is the message that the Republican party needs to spend the next two years broadcasting.
We are in the state we’re in because the Democrats believe that Twitter – particularly upper-middle-class white Leftist and Leftist activist Twitter – is real life.
First this Poll:
Then this quote from a Washington Free Beacon article:
Small-Business Owners Slam MLB Commish for Moving All-Star Game
Darrell Anderson, the black owner of a limousine business in Atlanta, told the Washington Free Beacon Manfred’s decision will hurt the community and worsen the economic damage from the pandemic.
“As the owner of a transportation service in Atlanta, I know firsthand how badly our community wanted the All-Star Game played here,” Anderson said. “The $100 million in revenue to this area was going to be the opportunity for all of us to recover some of the losses that we incurred during the pandemic. Now, not only is that revenue gone, we may lose even more because conventions that were planned for Atlanta are now up in the air thanks to this decision by the MLB.”
Small-business owners in the state argue relocating the game will harm its minority population much more. Only 9 percent of Denver’s population is black, whereas Atlanta’s population is majority black and home to thousands of black-owned businesses.
America is being governed, at the state and federal level, by people who think that the insane demands of shrieking activist Twitter is the popular opinion of the country.
It is not.
They are hurting Americans and their opinions are widely unpopular.
But most Americans listen to the media and watch promoted social media accounts so they get the same misrepresentation at the Democrats. They believe the activists more than their own lying eyes.
So what the Republicans need to do is make it 100% crystal clear that shrieking activist Twitter is not America. It is a tiny handful of crazy people, and Americans need to act and vote based on what they see in their daily lives and not the way that the loudest voices on Social Media tell them to.
We need to take our country back from activist Twitter.
Then again, most of the leaders of big business are themselves products of the same schools, social circles, and the general peer group as the Woke activist- and the big media people, and the high end professors, and the government apparatchiks, and those who write the influential books about Wokeism, and on it goes.
They’re not neutrals running scared of a few activist. They’re fellow travelers getting, and in many cases, giving marching orders. A lot of Woke Crony Capitalism is about using social trends to drive the competition out of business, or getting themselves a favorable regulatory environment.
I was about to make the same observation. Is Twitter the reason Manfred did this, or was it what he wanted to do and Twitter is merely providing a convenient excuse and cover for his own decision?
