In the wake of the recent shootings, liberal media outlets have been trying to push an anti-gun agenda with the help of Democrats, and one of the most recent tactics to do this is to blame conservatives and the so-called “culture of fear” that they supposedly support.
On Wednesday night, MSNBC’s The 11th Hour featured former Republican strategist and Lincoln Project senior advisor Stuart Stevens, who suggested that the outrage over a Bud Light commercial featuring a man dressed up as a woman was behind some of the violence.
Rather than addressing the actual root cause of the shootings, Stevens chose to further demonize conservative voters and to suggest that they are solely responsible for the violence. His suggestion that those who had spoken out against the commercial or had chosen to boycott Bud Light were somehow contributing to the shootings is simply ridiculous.
There is no evidence that conservative boycotts of Bud Light had any impact on the shootings, and this is just another example of liberal media outlets trying to push an agenda and demonize conservative voters in the process. It’s an outrageous asserttion considering the facts surrounding the shooting that’s up for discussion in this segment.
They were referencing a shooting in Kansas City where and elderly man shot a teen who knocked on his door at 10 pm at night. Of course, the homeowner was white so he must be a ‘outraged conservative fearful that a trans beer drinker was after him—That’s pretty much what this clown is saying.
It is also important to note that the Lincoln Project is a group that was formed by fake Republicans in order to sow division on the right and to help push a liberal agenda. These individuals have no interest in actually helping to solve the issue of gun violence, they simply want to use it as a tool to further their own political ends.
At the end of the segment, Stevens also invoked race, suggesting that the Republican Party is only focused on trying to “maximize their predominantly white vote” through fear and grievance-based tactics. This is an incredibly lazy and offensive way to discuss the issue, and it does nothing to help solve the actual problem.
The truth is that gun violence is a complex issue that needs to be addressed on multiple levels, and it cannot simply be blamed on one group of people or one political party. The fact that liberal media outlets are trying to push an agenda and demonize conservative voters in the process is unacceptable, and it needs to be called out for what it is: an attempt to distract from the real issues at hand.
