In the 1970s Ben Stein interviewed major TV producers/writers to ask why their portrayal of US culture was so distorted. Businessmen were evil. Real life crime was always depicted inaccurately, favoring instead the Marxist narratives on race, class, and culture of the new left.

Here’s Ben Stein in 1979 describing television as an engine of cultural demoralization. He argues that a small clique of producers and writers pushed a left-coded inversion of reality onto the public. They despised traditional power centers and hated figures like Buckley. They propagandized the nation into accepting a fake world where businessmen are villains, criminals are the good-guys, small towns are sinister, military officers are proto-fascists, and work barely exists.

i knew a woman who ruined every single one of her relationships with her looksmatch because she had dated a man far out of her league when she was younger. she could never get the idea out of her mind that this was her true standard and she was settling and doing a favor for the “lesser” men. she would cheat with “higher” status married men to feel chosen again. many women would rather be a side chick or in a situationship with a high status man rather than date an average to below-average man. not realizing, they are also the lower-tier woman and would find much more joy and commitment with their looksmatch.
