Superficial Politics: A Cultural Disconnect
This chapter critiques the superficiality of recent political campaigns, focusing on their reliance on creative expressions like street art rather than meaningful political discourse. It explores the disconnect between traditional political strategies and contemporary digital engagement, particularly among younger voters, while also addressing the Republican Party's struggles to connect with its base.
