Liberals, left leaning types, so on; aren't more empathetic then righties. No the distinction comes in that liberals/lefties are liberal as in premissive of another's behavior/actions along certain axes.

Righties don't have a live and let live attitude. They simply aren't in power to the extent lefties are. Which was true of lefties in the past.

However this doesn't mean they aren't without their objections to others beliefs. If you find x conduct distasteful and they don't. Then they find you distasteful or at least your beliefs.

Never forget the personal is political. If they promote you, they are in essence promoting your beliefs. Or at least they think so or their peers do.

This enclosed system has taken time to build. The march through institutions took time. The problem the right had was it just wanted to grill. Thats not how power works. Hopefully thats changing.

The reason you don't see as many right wing creatives now is because of the amount of liberal gatekeeping involved. And the sheer amount of advertising it takes to get one's message out nowadays. As opposed to even a decade ago.

The reason there are no right creatives is because liberals don't allow them to use their business, institutions to market said righties works.

You can't make say something like pulp fiction or a fist full of dollars in modern Hollywood, because of the industry itself. Not because the screen play doesn't exist in a drawer somewhere gathering dust or on a hard drive.
 
I had a lengthy response written out to this explaining it but...

Theyre getting their shit pushed in by leftist creators or keeping quiet about their views entirely.
 
most artists i've ever known are not only not leftists but hate sjws and the PC nonsense but most would still work for Amerifag companies where the project lead is some genderspecial or at least the official line is paying lip service to them.

Is not so much artists but more the current year western corporate culture, you either go along, keep low profile on that stuff or get turbocancelled from a high paying job you spent years working hard to get, the leftie stuff usually comes from the top down, rich fags that are on development and do fit in with that mentality.

Go to Artstation, how many of those portfolios are screaming "i am leftist!!!" ?, see how many feature tumblr art of trans pocs or some shit like that, very few, thats how right wing art look, is simply not inmediatly politicial like the shit you see furry commies do on twitter. "Right wing" artists work on their craft, draw interesting stuff and shup up about politicsperging, thats why it was so common to see hashtags saying "silence is violence", because the lefties who do annoy everyone with that stuff want an excuse to cancel people that don't even want to play that game and just want to work in peace.
 
I haven't read most of this thread, and I partially skimmed the OP.

Charls Carroll said something about how certain terms, words and mannerisms are designed to kill you.
This entire premise is fabricated.

Creativity isn't political, and you're probably a faggot if you think it is. Whichever opinions about
government spending, economics and foreign relations have as little to do with art as coyotes have
to do with jellyfish.
 
A lot of people usually give the same reaponce that conservative leaning people dont tend to be as creative as liberals (a subtle humblebrag) but that was never the case throughout history and I highly doubt that its the case now.

The real reason is that openly conservative people tend to be gatekept out of big publishing and media groups due to their politcal beliefs. Remember the old rule: "anything that isn't innately conservative will slowly become liberal goven enough time".
 
Too blackpilled to put anything more than a modicum of effort into my shit because I know it will be shafted because it isn't woke.
 
Imagine you’re a conservative butcher who cuts pork vs that one artist that put a pigs head to rot in a glass case. The butcher could have done that but what wa the point? The guy who did it wanted it to be interpreted. I think it’s just one of those things that have to do with where you’re located than what you are.

many artists make art based upon putting themselves in other people's shoes and their heightened sense of empathy leads to liberalism.

Why don't Liberals have any empathy for their outgroups then? They seem to hate Conservatives with a passion, the stats show, at least in the U.S, that they are far more willing to cut political opponents out of their lives than vice versa.

Mediocre liberals circle jerk and signal boost each other into prominence. Right wingers are forced to pull themselves up.

Once you realize how much media comes from shitty people in California and New York only because they are connected to other shitty people in California and New York.

Look at how many shitty scifi writers from the 60s and 70s got away with literal child rape for years.
 
I'd argue right leaning artists greatly outnumber liberal ones, but they mostly avoid political traps like hollywood and the twitterverse, and choose more practical professions. Art isn't just one thing. There are archetects, painters, sculptors, masons, and a world of creative professionals expressing craftsmanship, ideas, etc...
Big business calls to the right, and what do you see when you walk into a big successful business? Art, all over the place. It may be as simple as the granite tile floor pattern in your local bank, or as elaborate as a flower garden meticulously crafted to please the eye.

Liberals just have a monopoly on the lazy art.
 
New here, but this thread caught my attention. The era of "right-leaning creatives" reached its peak in the 1960's. Where today it's hard to find right-wing actors in Hollywood, back in the 1950's and 1960's they were pretty common. Two of the most popular "right-wing creatives" back then were these two actors, one a famous singer and popular actress and the other an Academy Award winning actor:

As what gets pointed out here, any opinion that goes against the "dominant" grain and is likely to get a creative person a big slice of Cancel-Pie is best kept quiet for the sake of survival. There are quiet ways of taking a stand - the not including pronouns in the social media bio, the not "Yass Queen"-ing posts about pure degeneracy/grooming.

If you see a nice creative who is not overtly political (and the politics limited to something bi-partisanly benign like providing extra electric car charging parks or something) you can be sure they have centrist or right leaning views they are keeping quiet.

This is actually an interesting observation. I decided to test it using the perfect stand ins. Exxon-Mobile corporate headquarters vs. Twitter Corporate headquarters.

To be fair, that top picture is the entrance foyer to Exxon Mobil's HQ in a sprawling 300 acre compound still being built while the bottom picture is Twitter's employee dining hall in a inner city building that was probably constructed 200 years ago, so there are going to be architectural limits .

Exxon's current HQ looks like a cross between a state penitentiary and a mental asylum

Also Exxon is ten times the size of Twitter in net worth ($300 billion to $26 billion)

There's probably not too much in terms of politics motivating why each company has chosen the location - Twitter is a technology hub still very connected to Silicon Valley in downtown SF and Exxon/Mobil is out in spacious Texas because historically petroleum infrastucture and admin is there.
