The Right Wing’s final ploy: Hip-Hop, Outlets and the Youth

The right has wing is trying to get grip on America’s youth. But, how are they doing this and how are they doing it successfully?

Rap media has unfortunately turned into gossip tabloids which in have even devolved into meme, misinformation posting and right-wing grifting.

Social media has been such a great tool for marginalized groups to come together to organize, lovers of different mediums to come together to discuss their favorites and more. Unfortunately, big rap media has taken it’s influence and used it for the negative.

The influence of streamers in today’s time is massive seeing so many figures cultivate a fanbase. Now, what you are cultivating that fanbase on is another story. Are you putting out great content, or are you just another tool the right wing can use to grab highly influential youth to brainwash. We are in a age where giving these people exposure can be just as bad as what they are saying.

Hip-hop media being a right wing tool to get to America’s youth has been a growing problem and the concept of ‘’letting people have their own opinions’’ when these opinions only cause hate to groups that are already under fire.

I don’t think hip-hop is dead in the slightest to be frank. But, if hip-hop media is suppose to be a representation of the state of it, how can you blame people?
