Probably because it’s an easy way to stay “relevant”

If Christian’s have been persecuted for years, how do they end up on the news and have a platform?

Because it’s easier to grift to dumb people. While both sides have plenty of idiots there’s far more on the right look at MAGA,anti vax, climate change denial,constantly defending & embracing pedos etc

Because they are wealthy, right wing economics benefit the wealthy. If there wasn’t a culture of left wing social progressivism in most art spaces (Hollywood, TV, theater, art, etc.) most of these people would probably be fiscally right wing. Their political opinions are, 90% of the time, performative. As for why he’s a grifter, it’s because America no longer has a healthy conservative movement. MAGA hijacked right wing politics and has been increasingly polarizing and increasingly extreme.

The chase for fame is honestly very lame. Make great stuff and people will tune in, but to be famous just for existing is so lame. Be okay with oneself.

and they're bitter towards Hollywood and resulting experiences (as anybody would) but they try and blame that on Liberalism bc living in LA/NYC was their introduction/proximity to it

I mean the left does too. It’s a lot of times marketing. It’s not just in politics, it’s in everything. Whatever can get us to buy into something. Reliability doesn’t even matter anymore cause companies and stuff rely on big names to influence people who don’t know any better despite the person/product being crap

It’s actually the opposite. The left is actually the more wealthy side, relatively speaking.

The upper-middle class tends to lean more left, yeah. I’m not referring to the upper-middle class though. I’m referring to multi-million and billionaires. The Elon Musks and Jeff Bezoes of the world. It’s just a statement of fact that fiscal conservativism protects their interests.
