I know Lemmy isn’t normally the best place to search for this, but are there any high-quality right-wing explainers, or modern books, or media outlets?...
Ayn Rand is where modern right wing ideology started. You really don’t need to read a whole book, she beats you over the head with the message repeatedly.
Fast forward to the Rush Limbaugh talk show and listen to some of his monologues.
Then jump back to Mein Kampf to see the future of the right wing.
It’s all bullshit, and it’s easy to fall down the rabbit hole of right wing talking points. Ask critical questions like what happens to the most vulnerable populations under that system and you realize quickly that it’s Sparta all over again and they will be actively killed because they believe in eugenics.

I’m thinking of switching fields within STEM and there are some mathsy modules which I missed out on during my undergrad (biology) that would come in really handy right now....
Don’t forget they have to contradict themselves at every turn. “Go woke go broke” vs “cancel culture”, “the 2nd protects the 1st” vs cheering on cops beating up protesters, party of traditional family values vs supporting a dude who’s divorced several times and is in court for misappropriation of campaign funds to pay off a sex worker.
I watched all that stuff as a kid too, I remember having nightmares for weeks over Children of the Corn. I want to avoid that with my kid and let her choose when to watch that stuff.
[Serious] Any high-quality right-wing media, books, explainers?
