That gets into some very sticky ethical issues.
I don't really want my government deciding what political viewpoints are good or bad.

There's a lot of toxic masculinity embedded into gym-bros.
Half the reason some of them are there is to conform to a dominance thing.
If I can bench-press more than this guy, I'm better than them.

There's a ton of discourse out there about how 'liberals love disney' and most of I talk to have a healthy mistrust of the Rainbow-Capitalism happening with Disney. Not to mention they're a big corp that does big corp things.

1. If journalists ask hard questions during press conferences, they get their WH creds revoked
2. The entire US financial situation is too complicated to be explained fully. It's impossible to make a simple statement that isn't wrong on several levels. Nobody wants to say something and get debunked
