The American Spectator: Boycotts Aren’t Enough
Conservative boycotts of Target and Bud Light have led to over $10 billion in stock losses for the companies. However, boycotts alone are not enough for conservatives to win the culture wars; they must fight back by mocking, ridiculing, and shaming companies that support the LGBTQ agenda, especially when it comes to children. The Left has no common moral ground with conservatives, so there is only war.
Townhall: Death of the Professions
The majority of Americans do not have formal education past high school. Those with advanced degrees are commonly seen as possessing superior intellectual abilities, trained in rigorous inquiry, and able to evaluate evidence and assert independent judgment. However, the erosion of standards, denial of truth, and political pressure have led to a collapse of trust in professionals and institutions, from medical professionals and educators to the legal profession and the media. This lack of trust could potentially lead to the collapse of American society.

The American Spectator: Artificial Intelligence Is Decaying the Internet
Manuscripts do indeed burn, as history has shown us countless times. While the devil in Mikhail Bulgakov's novel claimed that manuscripts don't burn, the reality is that they are particularly vulnerable to fire and destruction by other means. Even with modern technology and the idea of digital permanence, data can still decay and be lost forever. As the internet transitions from analogue to digital, we risk losing a great deal of cultural heritage and information due to changes in policies and technological advances. Ultimately, it is important to preserve our tangible cultural heritage and the "buildings of the spirit" while we still can, as digital content may not be as indestructible as many believe.

Townhall: Protecting our Kids’ Mental Health by Protecting their Sexual Health
Young people are at risk of sexual exploitation by online predators who use social media to pose as friends or romantic interests. They use grooming techniques to gain a child's trust, asking for private information and innocent photos at first before escalating to more explicit material. Once they have this, the predator gains control and can manipulate and blackmail the child, causing long-term emotional and psychological harm. Childhood sexual abuse can lead to several mental health issues and behaviors such as depression, anxiety, drug and alcohol abuse, and suicide attempts. Parents must have difficult conversations with children and limit and monitor their online activity to protect them from abuse and exploitation.
