I know Lemmy isn’t normally the best place to search for this, but are there any high-quality right-wing explainers, or modern books, or media outlets?

I myself am ultra-left (quite literally communist, to the dictionary sense of the word), but I’d like to quit the bubble that inevitably forms around and look at good arguments of the opposing side, if there are any.

Is there anything in there beyond temporarily embarrassed millionaires and fears that trans people will destroy humanity? Is there rational analysis, something closer to academic research, behind modern ideas of laissez-faire capitalism and/or political conservatism?

I’ve tried outlets like PragerU, but they are so basic they seem to target a very uncritical audience.

I’d like to see the world in the eyes of an enlightened right-winger, and see where they possibly fail (or if suddenly they have valid arguments).

    Thanks! Will check them out. Useful to get closer to sources everyday conseratives lean to

        Thanks! Yes, I see how this might be infuriating Took a glance over Project 2025, it’s not just wrong and dystopian, it’s literally self-contradictory, sometimes in the same paragraphs.

        Like when they say that free competition generally reduces costs of healthcare, but then the literal next paragraph saying government should allow prices to soar to “foster innovation” - like, make up your mind! And then proceeding to say that insurance ends up in a lot of “unnecessary” appointments and that healthcare should be everyone’s own financial responsibility.

        And a lot of similar examples of self-contradictory and dystopian stuff carefully covered in positive wording.
