Do the right wing rich donors spend money on the kulturkampf offense?

Outside of Robert Mercer is anyone spending money on right wing offensive operations in the kulturkampf? This is the best time for that considering the state of the left. You can culture jam the fuckers into to the fucking wilderness...

If you meant "is anyone actually paying to supported and now are selling stake in Breitbart News"?


Wealthy donor Robert Mercer, whose money helped elect President Trump, is stepping down from the giant hedge fund he co-heads and is selling his stake in the conservative website Breitbart News to his daughters.

In a letter sent Thursday to his investors at Renaissance Technologies LLC, Mercer, 71, defended his brand of libertarian politics, but also expressed regret for his support of controversial former Breitbart editor Milo Yiannopoulos.

That word doesn't mean what you think it means. This seems to be a pattern..

I am not going to use culture war. It feels wrong.

I agree that kulturkampf sounds pretty cool, but it's closer to what I would want to do rather than what the GOP or even the alt-right wants.

Kulturkampf is an alt-right podcast. I was surprised to see Hwen using the term.

You guys can't have it. Keep your grubby white nationalist hands off my reactionary terms.
