What is the issue that separates them from boomer? Anything other than being anti-Israel? That's the only thing I've seen.

At the end of the day, I think the DW is on the wrong side of the fracturing conservative movement and they can't course correct because of who they are by nature. American support of Israel is highly boomer/protestant leaning. I don't think anyone who listens to conservative talk show under 35 has good things to say about Israel. And the pro-Israel conservative groups consider negative views on Israel or positive assertions of Christianity only as disqualifying for allying with them under the banner of fiscal conservativism and secularized social conservativism.
Who is the current mainstream conservative then?
Ben Shapiro's latest YouTube video has 137k after 8 hours. He's doing fine.

Walsh has been speaking out against the Iran war. He works for Ben Shapiro. Not surprised at all. Walsh might have enough money to stand on his principles, or he will bend knee to DW. Guess we will find out soon.I can't take the gaslighting, guys. I really can't. Conservatives are now running around saying "Iran has been waging war on us for 47 years." Okay then why didn't any of you call for an attack on Iran at any point until now? Why didn't you make a case for Trump "ending the war,…
— Matt Walsh (@MattWalshBlog) March 2, 2026Some of us expressed great concern about the Iran War when it was first launched. We were shouted down and condemned as “panicans” and “blackpillers” and even Islamist sympathizers. But it’s pretty clear from how things have gone that our concerns were absolutely reasonable and…

In general, the millenial and younger cohort that identifies as following politics and is conservative generally has the following viewpoints:
-Israel is not our ally. It's a one way parasitic relationship.
-straight white Christian males have been discriminated against for 30 plus years now, but no one is allowed to rally around that point.
-corporations and government have shown no loyalty to the people who reside in their lands. Mass immigration and replacement theory are one and the same.
-boomers couldn't give two ****s about anything beyond getting their luxury boomer communism and dying before inflation and housing SHTF.
-America is a Christian and only Christian nation, even if it's deeply flawed by enlightened thinking who thought you could take God out of the west and still get the western ethics.
-the constitution is invalid if it allows for 50 million plus migrants from the 3rd world to come in and displace them.
None of these points are allowed to be said on mainstream platforms so you don't hear them.

Shapiro is a paid agent of Israel pushing their propaganda and people caught on. He's also an unlikeable nerd who is incredibly stupid. Glad his/Israels program is going into the gutter where it belongs.
Calls Ben a paid agent and stupid. Parrots Tucker's talking points. Fails to see irony.

I know thats the groyper positions, however I think you are dramatically over selling its popularity.
Marilyn Manson sold millions of albums, but Goth was never "mainstream". There has always been a percentage of angst filled socially awkward kids looking for an outlet and falling for losers lile Feuntes.
My son knows not to follow that loser.

Tucker just got paid to endorse Animal Farm, a movie that trashes capitalism based off a book that trashes communism. Its not speculation that Tucker sells out to the highest bidder. It is known. He is also objectively a moron.
Where as Ben was the youngest syndicated columnist on earth at one point in time, is objectively a genius, and is a Jew who defends Isreal.

Yeah, Tucker "I went to sleep with dogs, woke up with scratches, must be Demons" Carlson. Real genius you got on you hands, there. You got me, man.

Fuentes has a following because kids are naive and unwise and inexperienced and also more emotional and impulsive. I remember being in my 20's and thinking I knew it all and getting somewhat idealistic in my political views. Experience and more knowledge I think has given me more wisdom and understanding of how humanity and the eorld around us actually operates over time and I can see the presumptions and biases I used to have and understand them better now.
I'm not saying the youth are not smart. I am saying they are still naive and idealistic in a world that exploits and then punishes such things and the cyst is there is really no way around that, only through it with time. The young who are wise will at least consider the perspectives of the older people who have experienced and learned more before dismissing them out of hand. Let's not pretend the youth have discovered anything new to humanity. They are rather just progressing through a stage of intellectual development that most of us experience: idealistic vigor and frustration with the nature of reality and constraints out imposes.

Not trying to get you. Just pointing out that Shapiro is a mouth piece for Israel and that's why his show sucks and has gone downhill. He had to fire then smear, with the help of the IDF, most of his former coworkers because they didn't go along with his/Israel's ruse. Looks like it's happening to Walsh now too.
Quote:
Pick the owner of a Columbus home health care company at random and look him up in public records, and you are likely to go down an endless rabbit hole: years of unpaid taxes and debts, sometimes criminal records, and an astonishing number of LLCs created in other industries, as if the millions they make from Medicaid are just a side gig.
We went down several of those rabbit holes. In the coming days, you'll meet:
- A politician who founded an $11 million home health care company that he appeared to run part-time without even mentioning it in his political biography who funded his campaign with donations from other home health care owners.
- A woman who reinvented her janitorial LLC as a "health" provider, then billed Medicaid nearly $100,000 the first month.
- A landlord who bought airplanes after renting space to hundreds of home health care companies that billed Medicaid a quarter of a billion dollars.
- A million-dollar Medicaid business owned by a couple with repeated fraud, violence, and theft convictions.
- A man who went to prison for Medicaid fraud but told the government he was too broke to pay restitution, while his neighbors and associates preside over a poverty-program empire.
- An accountant who lost his license for stealing public funds, then opened a $7 million home health company using the address of a convicted money launderer's teenage son.

Ben can say the talking points very fast. Like really fast. Some people confuse fast talking for intelligence. He refuses to debate anyone to the right of him. Because he is a gate keeper.

Great summary. Only thing I would disagree with is that anyone who follows Fuentes is, objectively, a moron. Doesn't mean they won't become smarter when they get a job and join the real world, similar to how a lot of young liberals become more conservative as they grow up.

He debates to the right of him all the time. Walsh is one of them.
He doesn't debate your hero because he doesn't want to platform a neonazis.
You don't become the youngest syndicated columnist or graduate cum laude of Harvard Law school as a white guy if you aren't intelligent. Feel free to disagree with him, perfectly reasonable to do so, but trying to claim he isn't smart just screams petty envy.

The Daily Wire is falling off because the only people still on the pro-Israel cause are boomer Republicans and dispensationalists. Everyone else can see Israel's parasitic relationship with the USA for what it is.
Keyno said:
The Daily Wire exists to push out a message that fuses "conservatism" with a pro-Israel agenda. People used to tune in because Ben can talk fast and destroys the "blue hair libs". That is how Shapiro made his bones- debating brain dead liberals and talking fast.
During covid, you may remember that many "right wing" outlets were censored on social media. Daily Wire was not. Ben told us to take the shot.
Ben says YOU should not do "identity politics". Meanwhile he openly is "Israel First and Jewish First". Sometimes Ben also pays lip service to the constitution or freedom or whatever.
At the end of the day, Ben and the Daily Wire are bleeding viewers and cash because that message just doesn't resonate with people anymore (under 40). We currently have free speech on twitter so everybody knows whats going on.

I don't think you listen or read what The Daily Wire creates. The DW has 4 Catholic hosts and 1 Catholic lite to start with and there might be more.
