Again, content isn't bad, but if we're truly wanting to change hearts, then conservatives should focus more on the arts and not as much on the news and current events side. I think it's got that pretty well covered. //

I think you are right Brandon. But, it's important to recognize an aspect of the problem that I believe flies under the radar.
...
Much of the best work of the past, especially in film, books, and television, came through as "conservative" because the story mattered first. Any conservative "messaging" is usually an organic result of telling stories that reflect, in one way or another, relatable situations of human affairs contending with universal problems. Theoretically, a creator could use a "trans" activist as the protagonist, without preaching either a conservative or liberal message, and provide profound meaning to both conservatives and liberals with a great telling of the story.
The progressives of today are putting out crap. And conservatives are missing the point in art.
But I think this current dynamic is setting us up for conservatives to find their feet and start telling great stories again. People are hungering for it...they require it for their souls and mental health. And progressives are currently missing the mark by a long shot.
