16. Liberals have given up the raunch sphere

and it costs us. Like it or not there are alot of people out there who enjoy (and are influenced by) 'junk food' entertainment.

In the 90s when I was growing up we had some big stars on our side (defending the Clintons) like Howard Stern, Larry Flynt, Hugh Hefner, etc. They were raunchy or un-PC when it came to sex and partying, but were committed to liberal causes, often against the wishes of their own mostly white male audience. Bill Maher sucks and was never on our side like those guys were, BTW.

Rogan fills that space that they did, but is RW leaning, and we don't have the equivalent LW leaning type to fill the space anymore. Charlamagne Tha God has become pretty big but again the typical liberal tends to tsk tsk his style.
