You do realize railing against the loss of obscenity laws doesn't help your argument for supporting the efforts of the 'old right', right?And once again we see the new populist right being ignorant of history and blaming the old conservatives for losses they had no way at the time to counter, and in fact saw how they lost and took efforts to reverse.
What am I talking about? Obscenity laws. You know how those were lost? It wasn't through some obscure beuracractic nonsense or the long march through the institutions, no, obscenity laws were systematically weakened by the US Supreme Court starting with, of course, the Progressive Warren court in the 1950s and continuing up until the 1990s. In fact, the continual weakening of obscenity laws was one of the reasons for the Conservative movement that began AS A REACTION to the Progressive movements of the 1960s to focus on the Court.
But reversing and capturing the Supreme Court was a long term project. They couldn't, say, use the scorched earth and aggressive tactics the new right seems to love and say should be used. They couldn't, for instance, start impeaching Supreme Court justices since, after all, Republicans (to say nothing of Conservatives) never controlled both chambers of Congress until the 1990s (and by the time they DID the court capture project was far enough along there was no need and you even began seeing reversals of the weakening of obscenity laws). No, rather they worked with what they had, which was usually the Presidency and narrow Senate majorities that enabled them to, in the long term, remake the Court.
And you know what? IT WORKED, but once again they are given no credit and instead damned for NOT DOING ENOUGH!
This is once again focusing on an effectively meaningless (outside the tradcon/prude-right) virtue signalling and 'why aren't the youngin's grateful for how powerless we've shown ourselves to be' whining by people who know their ideology works to slowly to effectively counter the progressives in real time.
It took decades to just get a conservative majority on SCOTUS, and that's only likely to last till the next GOP-picked justice dies or is forced out via 'retirement'. The 'old right' finally got the RvW win they wanted for decades via SCOTUS, and some 2A wins as well, at the cost of massive, massive amount of burned social/cultural capital outside the diehard GOP for years (basically since Bush Jr.) to get those.
All while the Left has only accelerated the changes they desire and shown how very far they will go to achieve what they desire, Constitution, laws, and biology be damned.
It is not the 'old right' who will be making the decisions for the new right in the future, and fossils who's time and competency has passed need to know when to bow out, just like new blood needs to get better about filtering grifters and legit racists out of it.
