If You Don’t Buy Conservative Art, Ruthless Leftists Will Ensure Nobody Can
A world in which the left has almost total control of the cultural landscape, it can feel like trying to find an endangered species by finding an openly conservative artist. The left is out hunting, much like poachers deep in the jungle.
While leftist artists can openly spew their bile for the world to hear, conservatives must be careful not to say anything that might expose them, lest they attract the woke mob’s notice.
Recently, I was reminded how quickly a conservative career can end when I saw a Kickstarter campaign to fund a series cards for the popular trading-card game. “Magic: the Gathering.” Nils Hamm, a prolific artist from early in the game’s history, had created a series of cards for the game, two of which were collaborations with Canadian artist Seb McKinnon.
McKinnon was criticized last year during the Canadian “Freedom Convoy” Protests were held in Ottawa by truck drivers to protest the tyrannical Covid-19 policies. The artist posted on Instagram Support the protesters and said “the media and politicians are trying to paint this as ‘anti-vax’ and ‘white supremacist.’”
The media reported that protesters blocked traffic and prevented Ottawaans from getting around the city. This was not true. Debunked.
“I am compelled to speak out and voice that what is going on in this country is NOT RIGHT,” McKinnon continued. “I choose love over fear. And for the first time in a long time, I feel hope.”
After his praises for truckers, people called him to ask for his head. Some “Magic: the Gathering” McKinnon was rescinded by players who were upset that McKinnon had voted against the despotic Covid mandates.
They had every reason to believe they would succeed. They’d done it before.
Terese Nielson, another popular artist, was fired after being accused of supporting Donald Trump. Leftist stalkers revealed Nielsen had been following right-wing outlets and personalities such as Jack Posobiec, Infowars and Mike Cernovich and liked and retweeted numerous posts in support of the former President.
Doug Beyer is the principal game designer of the worldbuilding project. “Magic: the Gathering,” admitted, “We haven’t commissioned new art from Terese Nielsen in quite a while.”
🔥Tokens of Spirit has large, archival prints on H20 paper that are available for all of the art.

And so the cycle goes. Leftists become displeased with the publicly stated views of a conservative, pressure their place of employment to fire them, and will harass them until they do so. Conservatives in the public square are meticulously hunted down and exterminated.
So what is to be done? Are we to lie down and accept a fate of utter decimation in a world
