To the surprise of no one, New York Times and reporter Sheryl Gay Stolberg was disingenuous in a Thursday story accusing culture-war obsessed Republicans of endangering America’s health during the pandemic: “Biden’s Top Health Posts Remain Empty as G.O.P. Focuses on Culture Wars,”
It’s clear The Times considers free expression, abortion, and women’s right to spaces of their own are time-wasting clickbait -- though with the issues of Dr. Seuss, abortion, and transgender activism, it’s invariably Republicans reacting to leftist overreach.
She began by fretting that it was the GOP that were waging in culture wars:
Nearly two months into the Biden administration, in the thick of

Newspapers should be defunded and scrapped into the dust.

The GOP isn't doing much of anything except trying to raise funds from former supporters who are now disgusted with them. Whether we support them or shun them, at this point it makes very little difference, without honest elections they are doomed.

To No, 2; "...at this point, it makes very little difference, without honest elections they are doomed."
We are already doomed if we leave it up to weak-kneed Repubs!!!
Just my humble opinion!!!

The term "culture wars" mean you present and past way of life.
These attitudes must be changed. We must leave those 'misconception of life' and lessons learned by exchanging our misguided notions for the CRAP sandwich being offered.
It is time for us to stand up against this, and to stand for truth before our history and our experience to KNOW what is and what isn't is taken away.
Social values have given our society order. When EVERYTHING is race based, then 100% ("all") persons are painted with the same brush when we know that this is not truem unless standing up for virtue, clear thinking and common sense when dealing with the propaganda media and politicians and now the businesses who are punishing customers who don't go along.

So let me get this straight, Stolberg. Leftists attack social norms and our traditional institutions and conservatives react to conserve those norms and institutions, but it's the conservatives that are causing the "war"??
Good example of Orwell's "newspeak" where the language is turned upside-down to brainwash the masses to follow and accept Big Brother.
You'd think using the pandemic to oust Trump would have satisfied them. at least for a little while. But the Left never stops. The rapidly disappearing pandemic (thanks to the Trump vaccines) is a crisis they just can't let go to waste.

The only Republican speaking out on the culture war is Ron DeSantis.

Fighting back against the destruction of the country is a good thing.
NYT is evil, and has been since they covered up the genocide that Stalin was committing in Ukraine in the 1930s.

I am at a loss.....such nonsense printed in a newspaper... not that I read any papers anymore...I faithfully watch Newsman for my news and make up my own mind... I lived in Canada for years and my sources up there are filling me in on their news... which is sometimes more accurate than ours... who would have thought that possible?...my friends says their rowboats are on the ready in case Russia attacks them... great sense of humor...

As usual the Democrat Times of NY has it backwards. It’s the looney left that started the culture war in the first place. Conservatives fight back but as usual rags like the Times call us every name in the book when we do that. A pox on the looney left and the DTNY.

Good summary, #5.
The technique used is one or a combination of these variants:
The Bogeyman
The Shiny Object
The Strawman
The Deflection
The Scapegoat
They really like the Scapegoat. It works so well against an effective Republican leader. In ancient religious ritual, annually the people would choose a pack animal, a goat was a favorite, and they would symbolically load all the people's sins and all the diseases and maladies and misfortunes on the poor animal, and then drive it out of the village, hurling curses and verbal abuses of every kind on the blameless goat, but now carrying the sins of the people. Sometimes they would drive it over a cliff, if they had one. But a desert or wilderness where wild beasts roam were suitable, too.
Whatever, everyone felt better for a while.
On Donald Trump, the ignoramus Dems and NeverTrumpers blamed everything, every conceivable and inconceivable thing. When Biden was declared winner, the ignoramus Dems and the grossly perverse-NeverTrumper Lincolnites and variants were exposed, their masks just couldn't conceal the grime and filth of their transgression, just couldn't be recycled into anti-Trump, adulate-Biden one more minute.
Then they suddenly realized people were beginning to wake up, and so the newsfeed scribes and Pundit-Pharisees and hypocrites needed something, anything to deflect, distract, confuse and bamboozle the People who grope along the walls as they straggle down the streets, blind because they fear and loathe the truth, blind because a minimum of at least one of the several Faucian all-purpose pandemic masks, has been mandated by the pint-sized medicine man to be pulled up over the eyes and glued to foreheads. This so they can't see the man in the White House...

Sheryl Gay Stolberg is a well-documented liar taking on psychopathic traits.
