A lot of people think media literacy is when you agree with a piece of media but this is actually an illiterate idea. Art isn’t about preaching to the choir neither is communication in general. If you actually dig into the facts I doubt the people who tout media literacy agree with all the media they like. Many leftists enjoy Dune and Frank Herbert was a diehard conservative who worked closely with right wing politicians and romanticized religious zealotry. I don’t need to agree with George Lucas’ views on the Viet Cong in order to appreciate the world he helped build or find his heroes and villains engaging. I doubt the majority of Star Trek fans held Gene Roddenberry’s atheist pro Chinese communism views and why should they. Many Disney adults don’t hold views anywhere near Walt Disney’s strict anti leftist pro traditionalism views.

Let me preface this by first saying that I know racist Christians exist and I don’t care for your anecdotes about your racist Christian aunt from Arkansas. I know racist Christians exist but that’s irrelevant for validating the claim that most are racist. So there’s some very ignorant people claiming most Christians are racist when Christianity is the most racially diverse religion on earth and a good amount of the earths Christians are minorities themselves. I’m not saying minorities can’t be racist either. I’m just claiming it’s very ignorant to think Evangelical white Christians in the Deep South are the majority. The left prides itself on celebrating diversity but overlooks the diversity in Christianity in favor of a generalized Moral Orel idea of what the religion and its followers actually are. The internet isn’t real life and the racist Christians you see in your feed aren’t a representative sample of the global population of 2 billion Christians.

You don’t get to claim that someone is of no significance and screech or act out when he’s mentioned. If he’s just a nobody why is his death something to celebrate? Why instantly vandalize any memorial related to him? Why constantly talk about him and feel a need to demean and dehumanize him in any way possible. Clearly there’s some significance to him and something about him that makes you feel threatened if you feel a need to viscerally hate him to the degree you do. Left wing social media has a massive hate boner for a guy they simultaneously claim “was no one important.”

I keep seeing in 2026 the 2006 New atheist argument that “we’re all born atheist until someone starts telling us lies.” In order to be an atheist you have to take a conscious stance against the existence of God or against religion. Babies can’t communicate any conscious stance against religion therefore you can’t say that babies are born atheist. Also not being religious and being a blank slate isn’t the same as being an atheist.

We constantly hear about “the alt right pipeline.” Yet we have a rising trend in young people not only going left but supporting fringe left wing views like communism, anti theism, and murder of political opponents. A lot of these left wing young people have the same set of interests and follow/listen to similar people on TikTok and other social media. People walk out of TikTok scrolling with a similar set of left wing views. I keep seeing these same set of left wing figures on TikTok be pushed. They’re usually very aggressive and dramatic with their presentation of political issues too.

Very few Christians think identifying as Christian is going to make you a good person. This claim that they do is a non existent straw man. Leftists on the other hand constantly talk about how they just have “basic human empathy” while they actively wish misery on rural people, Christians, republicans, centrists, non voters, and straight men who aren’t left wing. Leftists love to project their self righteousness onto Christians. I don’t care for your anecdotal experiences of mean Christians commenters. I already know that some mean Christians exist.
