same same, it's more of the implementation

yeah

fair enough

because how do you know which is "conservative businesses"?

people could have a gun store and are still raging progressives

As soon as you set that up, it's going to be "The RNC, Turning Point USA, etc. (whichever group theoretically supports this) is supporting white supremacist businesses"

it might be better if it's supporting small businesses in general imo

<@333424381156130818> but the public doesn't have to know

because small businesses need a safety net anyway, and if the program that helps them lean conservative, they can buy in easier

How would you keep that sort of thing private

^^^ exactly

they can audit and find "systematic racism" or whatever -ism in there

Like incentives for pro-life, etc. advertising?

that would be cool

My biggest issue with that is I don't necessarily think businesses should be vocal in politics

something like that? because i'm thinking like a welfare state. people vote for welfare (ie. the government), which is leaning democrats. if we're running a private welfare support that lean conservative and preach conservative values (explicit or implicit), it will soften people to the idea of conservatism

Isn't welfare something conservatives dislike

depends on the business models, i think. ie. for sports, sports had always been tied to politics

how so

just like athletes' platform power?

okay so what if we buy / build businesses and use the profits for political campaigns / ads?

it's poor word choice, but that's the general idea i'm interpreting from neithon. build a safety net and help small businesses to thrive might not be "welfare" necessarily

sure. black athletes were barred from sports for some time. hitler barred certain countries from the olympic (if my memory is correct)

i don't like the ideas of using the money for political ads/campaigns (because who are you supporting?). i'd like it to go back to helping the community

that being said, you can also use the money to start lobbying and/or influence media
