Continuing from a few days ago….
All ‘mainline’ institutions are making a basic mistake in advertising and messaging. They claim to be appealing to Da Yoots, the supposedly valuable 18-34 demographic. In fact they are only appealing to one particular type of 70-year-old.
After 20 years of bankruptcies, why do they still hold this weird and SELF-DESTRUCTIVE belief? It doesn’t make sense. The only logical explanation is that Trump is paying them.
Their “anti-establishment” line is the same fake “anti-establishment” line that we heard from our fake leftist leaders in the 60s. I spotted the fakeness eventually, aided by prison experience. Many of us didn’t figure it out.
The latest “anti-establishment” protests here in Spokane were mainly old folks. One commenter at Spokane News hit the nail: “It’s nice to see the assisted living center giving its patients a field day.”
A brief note from Burge, the religion stats man, shows the failure from another angle. The mainline churches (Pisky, Presby, Methodist, etc) are even losing the allegiance of the few yoots who are still in the denominations. Their opinions on abortion and trannies are traditional, not hippie.
