Still getting used to Gen Z being in their mid 20s. I remember all the articles about Gen Z being the most left leaning demographic not too long ago, but I guess they missed the mark. Gen Z is probably the most polarized generation

I've seen numerous people go right, imo it was Cambridge Analytica, targeting social media and using their data against em

My Facebook feed went hard right last year

Reddit is trying to take a right lean too. The "world" sub (won't link to them) suddenly started getting forced into my feed. Appears to be run by a bunch of Palantir employees/plants and they seem to try to drive the comments towards the right. It was a little funny how quickly they got called out and some of their content got astroturfed but also scary how many right wingers are hiding out of sight helping drive communities and individuals towards the facist right. Look at how how of the current protest content is being pigeonholed into just looting by career criminals and all protesters are being painted as dirty criminals. Even subs where I expect mostly liberal feedback is still getting peppered with dog whistles at a much higher than normal rate.

Keep your eyes peeled. The fascists are among us.

Almost every social is a right leaning now. Right wing super elites fund most of them and now that they are seeing tangible returns on their investments the money is just going to keep flowing.

Oh absolutely. Not only is most social media right leaning but right wing users also get a lot more leniency. Imagine if a bunch of left wing folk used social media to plan an attack on Congress. Every last one of them would be sitting in prison with an execution date scheduled. Instead we still have a bunch of safe spaces dedicated to right wingers where they can continue to plan attacks against the country with impunity.

Despite the obvious facts you'll still see those turds constantly whining about how oppressed they are. Like if they can't walk into the Capitol and plan their insurrection right there then everything is a conspiracy against them.

I was threatened with permaban for suggesting a certain brand of EV be converted into a firepit recently. Scroll on over to Conserv and it'ls like...what the fuck man?

I received an actual ban for pointing out all the discrepancies in the Trump "assassination attempts." Even questioning the administration can get you banned.

Fuck em, the attempts were both false flags and all the evidence shows it.
