This may be a wild take from me but here goes. In my opinion, Chibi Reviews (along with people like Rev and Hero Hei and other nerds involved in the Right) have done more for winning battles in the Culture War than Jersh and half of his Kiwis could ever hope achieve and let me explain.
One of the biggest Achilles Heals for the Right is their arrogant dismissal of the arts (this is especially true for the old Baby Boomer right-wingers).
If you talk to your average retarded boomer conservative or if you talk to your average lobertarian libertarian, they often dismiss the arts as not important or see this as beneath them and this is a fatal flaw that has often held back the Right when it comes to the Culture War.
A good example of a boomer-adjacent right-winger is Matt Walsh. While Matt Walsh is a Gen-Xer and he is known for bringing up the Troon question, Matt Walsh is a fucking retard when it comes to the arts and culture in general.
To Matt Walsh, he thinks video games are for kids and a waste of time, he thinks animation is for kids, he thinks many movies are not worth his time and his views on pop culture is that men and women should just watch paint dry instead of watching a movie. Fortunately a lot of right-wingers (including Ben Shapiro himself) called him out on this because it's clear Matt Walsh doesn't get it and he refuses to get it. Matt Walsh thinks pop culture isn't important and many people called him out on this is because this is Matt Walsh surrendering culture and have it be in the hands of the Left and thus he is saying he wants the Right to forfeit on the Culture War by letting the Left take over the entertainment institutions.
Or how about Libertarians? The Hoppean and Mises-adjacent libertarians (the actual Based libertarians) do realize that in order to save the world from the clutches of the Left then you need to get involved in the Culture War. But your average lobertarian thinks libertarians should not get involved in the Culture War and they think fighting over culture is not a worthy cause which is a laughable way to think about this.
One of the main reasons why libertarians haven't got anywhere is because the libertarians that aren't subscribed to Hoppe or Mises simply don't get themselves involved in the Culture War and they think people are smart enough to read about libertarian philosophy on their own. This doesn't work because many people are too lazy to read books cover to cover on their own spare time. This mindset is literately the 'Year of the Linux Desktop' meme but for Libertarians where many lobertarians think Libertarianism will take over the world by being passive and not taking any action (in the same way many retarded open-source tech enthusiasts passively waited for Linux to go mainstream thinking Linux doesn't need corporate backing but Linux didn't really went mainstream until Valve took action and main Linux finally mainstream by promoting it through corporate backing).
The only Libertarian to gain true power is Argentina's Javier Milei where he knew that in order for him to become the president of Argentina, he had to take action and he knew he couldn't wait for a miracle to come, he had to make the miracle happen through action. Now Argentina has become the first Libertarian nation on the planet and because Milei got involved in the Culture War, Argentina is now phasing out the old Peronist policies in favor of Libertarian policies.
So this brings me to Jersh and the Kiwis. Jersh and half of the Kiwis think anime and manga is for pedophiles, they think Gamergate is not a worthy cause, and they think pop culture is autistic. Do you see why Kiwi Farms (and online communities just like them) never had mainstream appeal in the first place? Kiwi Farms is no different from the retarded boomers and the lolbertarians that think culture is beneath them.
Say what you want about people like Chibi Reviews or Rev says desu or Hero Hei or Yellowflash or Kirsche and so on but they understand that in order to beat the Left then you need to take action to retake the Cultural Cathedral from the Left. The main reason as to why Western media sucks now is because right-wingers back then were being slothful and saw culture as beneath them which gave the Left the opportunity to subvert and ruin Western culture over the years.
Part of the reason why anime and manga is popular with right-wingers is because it's one of the few entertainment mediums in the world that hasn't been subverted and fucked over by the Left. Japanese entertainment isn't perfect but Japanese entertainment shows what happens when you don't let Left-Wingers fuck everything up compared to how Western media these days is slop now thanks to the Left.
If you think culture is not important then that just makes it very easy for the Left to take over culture unopposed and enforcing their ideals onto the next generation so they can change the country you once knew into something different (and often you won't like it). If you think culture is beneath you then you've already forfeited and lost the Culture War before your first fight, simple as that.
Jersh and half of the Kiwis think culture is beneath them so they are losing in the Culture War.
People like Chibi Reviews and Rev and Kirsche and so on are actually winning the Culture War because they refuse to forfeit and they refuse to let culture continue to be in the hands of the Left in the long run.
You can ignore culture and see culture as beneath you but culture definitely will not ignore you.
