"Metapolitics refers to various forms of non-political activities which work towards spreading certain ideas and values within a culture(s) which make up a "world-view" (Weltanschauung). Metapolitical activity is related to but excludes direct political activity (party politics, electoral events, political campaigning, etc.); it aims to influence politics and politicians as an end result, but not by working through politics. Metapolitics is associated primarily with intellectual and philosophical activity that works to support an ideology or world-view, but also involves spreading ideas and values through other means, including speeches, TV shows, journalism, popular myths, work programs, and various forms of propaganda. Metapolitics also argues that one of the main tasks of contemporary thought is to abolish the idea that politics is merely an object for philosophical reflection."
Sharing media that speaks to you can say a lot about who you are. If we show people that their conception of the Right-Wing isn't always accurate can bring more people into the cause or at least open people's minds to what else we have to say. The Left has understood this for decades and thinks they have a monopoly on 'creatives' and on good media. Record companies (based in LA and NY), movie companies (same) and 99% of print media is owned by the Left. We can change that. If nothing else we can subvert their message, re-purpose their memes and HAVE FUN doing it!!
