This feels like an oversimplification – let’s not forget that billionaires have poured untold sums of money into funding right-wing propaganda…and that virtually every major platform is owned and operated by billionaires with right-wing agendas.
Not only did Elon Musk spend billions on Twitter to make sure only voices he like get platformed, but Youtube has a well documented history of pushing more and more radical right-wing content to users, and Donald Trump just made sure that the one online place where left-wing voices were able to dominate (TikTok) was forced to be sold to his buddy, Larry Ellison.
But it is really simple. It’s a numbers game. Where their billions of investments fail is that they can’t ever replicate what we do naturally. If we were organized and actually engaged. I would say their billions are part of the reason we all are so passive. I have no doubt they infiltrated left wing spaces and said things like “uhhh it’s like wrestling pigs” and then promoting places like Lemmy. Left wing at one point did dominate these spaces but this current generation really only focuses on meeting in person twice a year in some city nobody cares about. Again, I wonder why we chose the most energy expensive methods

I assume anybody making such wild divisive statements is a Russian troll, tread with Care
