When Clown World and its manufactured talking heads are dismissed as fake and gay, this is not merely metaphorical rhetoric. In far too many cases, it is the literal truth.
Conservative Host Leaves Longtime Wife to Marry Gay Lover
Robby Soave, a well-known political commentator and co-host of The Hill’s Rising, has become the latest subject of D.C. chatter after revealing his engagement—to a younger gay partner—shortly after parting ways with his wife of nearly a decade. The 36-year-old, who also appears regularly on Fox News and serves as a senior editor at Reason magazine, proposed earlier this month to Jie Jung Shih, a medical student at Georgetown University.
I’m sure you’re all absolutely shocked by this totally unexpected turn of events. And Soave is hardly the only one. More than a few credible allegations have been made about “conservative” opinion leaders whose names you would definitely recognize. They’re all constructed of pure astroturf.
Trust only the great books and the ideas that have stood the test of time. Trust only that which is Good, Beautiful, and True. Stop paying attention to people simply because they are capable of mouthing one or two phrases with which you happen to agree. Any actor is capable of doing the same. As a general rule, if someone appears on television or is permitted on YouTube, they are almost certainly fake, probably gay, and definitely irrelevant. And while there are, of course, exceptions to the rule, that doesn’t change the fact that the rule is far more reliable than your easily-manipulated emotions.
Witness the total ineptitude of GOP Inc.’s Charlie Kirk replacement in trying to address the most basic aspects of the problem of legal immigration. He even tried to appeal to Israel Zangwill’s concept of “the melting pot” coined 290 years after the arrival of the Mayflower, as America’s founding doctrine.
And consider how Bari Weiss, the new editor-in-chief of CBS News, could only draw 150 viewers to a recent stream after selling her very valuable blog to Paramount for $150 million. All success in Clown World, be it financial or just fame, is not only fake, but formulaic.
