Teen Vogue and Cosmopolitan arre two magazines owned by Conde Nast and Hearst:

They are both under new editorial management ;Teen Vogue is selling Marx to teen girls, full bore:

and Cosmopolitan is so deviant, Walmart pulled it from its checkout lines for cover stories like "How to Ring A Guy's Penis With A Donut", as reported by Vogue itself:

The fact is these magazines are political propoganda rags pushing Communism and attacking any form of traditional "patriarchy" , with the Amish- whose total numbers are barely a rounding error in our population- being an easy target.

Once a media outlet gets taken over by the extreme left, you can't trust anything they say because lying to achieve their ends is a part and parcel of the left's arsenal. Like the NYTimes, they are riding on the fumes of whatever previous jounalistic integrity their former employees earned for them. That only works for a small window of time. Then the lights go out.

You should mention that if a media apparatus is taken over by the far right, then the exact same things ensues, just with different topics and hit points.

You say this but the "far right" media outlets I get information from don't seem to be doing this. This is coming from a life-long progressive (me). I can't think of a single thing pre-2004 I disagreed with progressives about except gun control and late term abortion. Now the left is literally, I mean literally insane. I went from an 1st term Obama voter to a Trump voter.

So the terrible trhings you think the right is putting out there, I am not seeing those.

Honestly, rationality and a respect for reason itself is all on the right now. So I moved there.

You probably support the evils of industrialism if you think the right isn't corrupt.

As opposed to working yourself to death by age 45 in subsistence farming or dying in childbirth or being prey to whatever disease mother nature rolls up for your consumption?

Yeah. I do.

There can be a technologically advanced society without industrialism. Industrialism simply has to precede the latter-society. We shouldn't stay here, we should morph the best of the Old World with the best of the New World, instead, y'all throw the baby out with the bath water. Industrialism is causing the sixth largest mass-extinction event this planet has ever seen. Tell me how dying at 45 is worse than seeing countrysides torn up, species of plants and animals disappearing (not due to natural causes, but due to industrialism)

So no computer? Because w/o industrialization you don't have computers.

You seem to be mistaking my criticisms.

This is environmental apocalyptocism, which started with Malthus. Every single one of these, in every generation, has been dead wrong. It's a religious belief I am not going to try to disabuse you of here.

Best of luck.
