Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.

Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.

No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.

But which songs/bands? Are you saying its like a whole studio/record company pushing this?
But which creators/influencers do we need to be on watch for?
Do you mean the whole service is far-right? Can I get the names of services to avoid?
This article feels like it lacks substance. It seems to be saying "There's bad guys out there. I'm not going to tell you who or where, but they're there. Just trust me bro". (In all fairness, they do point to tradwife influencers, but I assumed that was known).
That's not to say that they haven't actually found sources of right wing influence in each of these areas, but I was really hoping they'd bring the receipts on it.
I don't suppose anyone here can point to examples of what they're talking about with any of these? (Again, I'm aware of the tradwife stuff, so I'm good skipping that point).
They probably don't want to drive traffic to them. I'm sure you can find names if you look up the cited researchers' works.
Yeah, this article is just fear mongering. Feels like a way to play both left and right sides against each other. Generalized anxiety on the left will create an echo chamber.
When critical details are missing the information can be dismissed.
What I find interesting is that there’s a lot of conflation these days between the far right and conservatism — especially religious conservatism.
This misses the point that every progressive society needs some number of conservatives (even dogmatic ones) to be asking “but is this a good idea? Does progress here actually benefit people?”
These people are NOT fascist and NOT far right. They’re more likely to share a drink with someone who is, knowingly or unknowingly, than someone with progressive views though, and can be more easily influenced.
These are the sort of people who need to be aware of this kind of article. Unfortunately, most articles of this type don’t tend to differentiate between right and far right, and so are often ignored by the very people who need to hear the message.
No it doesn’t and that’s not what conservatives are. That’s a right wing talking point myth like “You’ll get more right as you grow up”
Conservatives are reactionaries who want no change. They blindly rage against anything different or new to them, they don’t care about the wider social landscape as is evident by how often they’ll support a leftist ideal once their child is a victim of their rhetoric.
“Progressive” people want change, and they ask themselves is this good all the time. You cannot progress if you don’t review and analysise.
really should be calling these people regressives at this point...not sure how stripping access to basic medical care is "conserving" anything but profits.
