Dialling back on the aggressive approach that has helped bring Idles this far, and putting swing to the stomp, Idles' latest album is intended to make you shake a leg rather than a fist

In London in 1851, the Exhibition of the Works of Industry of All Nations was held. The luxurious pavilions and grand attractions drew crowds from across the globe and began an impressive tradition of World’s Fairs. These universal exhibitions were held frequently throughout the Victorian Era (and less frequently throughout the 20th and 21st centuries). […] The post 10 Ordinary Things That Debuted at World’s Fairs appeared first on Listverse.

On this week’s episode of “The Signal Sitdown,” I’m joined by Vince Coglianese, host of WMAL’s “The Vince Coglianese Show.” As a radio host in the Washington, D.C., area, Coglianese intimately knows how Washington interacts with the media, and how the corporate media does the bidding of uniparty interests. The corporate media, Coglianese told me, “represent Democrat establishment interests, primarily,” which extends to both Democrats and Republicans. “This is where people use the phrase ‘Uniparty,’ and those interests are very much represented by the media,” he said. “The election comes down to, fundamentally, the establishment versus a guy who cares about sovereignty and wants to represent American interests. And so, if he’s the opposite of what the establishment wants, they’re not representing American interests.” It’s no mistake, then, that the media seems so out of touch. It’s a confluence of experience and interest for those atop the American media hierarchy, the afternoon-drive radio host suggests. “The media lies, and every time they do lie, they are devaluing their currency, obviously. And that leads people away from them.” The lies and gaslighting are “indicative of, sort of, the media hive mind on this subject, which is like, ‘That’s impossible. I’m sitting in a brightly lit studio. The air conditioning is set exactly to the temperature that I prefer. I was driven here by a car service this morning. All my meals are wonderful, in fact, and everybody I talk to is super happy and rich. Like, what? How could the economy be bad? The government says it’s great. So, this is, obviously, once again, the stupid, unwashed masses who are ingesting lies.’ This is what they’re thinking.” Nevertheless, the media’s posturing is geared toward its preferred political ends—one that maintains their power and influence. That’s why, for the past three presidential election cycles, the media have seemingly sought to “rig” the election in favor of their preferred candidate. “When we talk about election rigging, what better way to rig an election than to rig someone’s mind?” Coglianese said. “If you can control the minds of the people who pull the levers, you’ve rigged the election, baby.” President Joe Biden’s ousting was a part of this larger strategy to rig the election for the preservation of Uniparty interests, Coglianese suggests. “That Biden debate, there’s a reason they scheduled it in June. It was meant to happen early. It had to. Whoever was around Biden—Biden didn’t pick his own debate schedule. Somebody picked the debate schedule for him and said if we’re going to do this, we need to make sure we have one early. And the earliness of it was meant to test his competency on national television,” he explained, adding: “It was a strategic decision to put [the debate] that early.” “They were all sort of preparing for this, saying, ‘This is an eventuality. And when it occurs, we need to move swiftly, so that we can maintain our power,’” Coglianese said. “It was about power maintenance.” As for Biden’s replacement, the talk-show host said, “The whole Kamala Harris candidacy is really a test of the media’s ability to rig the election. It’s like, ‘How much of an empty vessel could we possibly get elected president of the United States? How much power do we have? Is it possible to take the least eloquent politician who’s ever existed to include Joe Biden, who’s ever existed and get her into the Oval Office? Do we have the power to do that still?’ And so that’s what this election is.” The post ‘What Better Way to Rig an Election’: The Media’s War for Your Mind appeared first on The Daily Signal.

Kamala Harris’ campaign appears to have only one strategy to earn female votes, says author and conservative social media influencer Isabel Brown.  “To the elected Left today, I think women equal votes for abortion,” Brown says, adding that too many Democrats see women as “a dollar sign associated with the abortion industry.”  While Democrats’ strategy to win female voters this election cycle is laser-focused on abortion, the Left is working hard to appeal to men after spending the better part of two decades demonizing masculinity.  In an effort to sweep previous concerns about “toxic masculinity” under the rug, Harris and her running mate, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, have discussed their ownership of guns and released a campaign ad in which men brag about eating “carburetors for breakfast” and cooking “steak rare.”  The Harris campaign’s effort to appeal to male voters before Nov. 5 is likely driven, at least in part, by data showing that male voters of Generation Z increasingly lean to the political right.  “Gen Z men, namely 17-year-olds, seniors in high school right now, are politically the most conservative they’ve been in America in 50 years,” Brown says.  According to an Axios report on a recent Harvard Youth Poll, 26% of men ages 18 to 24 say they identify as conservative, which is five percentage points higher than men ages 25 to 29. Although Gen Z women skew heavily to the left, even news outlets such as The New York Times acknowledge that some young men “feel that rapidly changing gender roles have left them behind socially and economically,” Brown says, and “see former President Donald J. Trump as a champion of traditional manhood.” With less than two weeks until the 2024 presidential election, the battle for the Gen Z vote likely is already settled.  Brown joins “Problematic Women” to discuss the role of the abortion issue in the election and how Democrats have isolated young male voters.  Also on today’s show, we dig into concerns over the damaging effects of various forms of birth control, and Brown shares her own story of how “the pill” changed her life for years.  Watch the show above or listen to the podcast below.
