The following are items that some conservatives love to complain about as having bias, yet many of those who complain continue to consume these in one way or another.
1. Mainstream News
2. Hollywood
3. Big Tech Giants (Google, Facebook, etc)
4. NFL Football
5. Television Networks
6. Universities
Is it hypocritical to complain but continue to consume any of these?
I believe the hardest one to abstain from would be #3 big tech giants as it is easy to not watch movies, television, football or the news but even if you want to watch alternative right wing news sources you have to watch on Youtube which is affiliated with Google.
If you are a conservative, do you abstain from consuming any of the above because of your views?
Edit: A sixth one came to mind, universities are bashed regularly by conservatives.

LOL you chose 5 things totally irrelevant to me.
Mainstream news? If I want to hear manufactured garbage I'd go listen to the kids down the street with their duck fart mufflers on their Honda civic.
Hollywood? Don't care what a professional narcissistic court jester has to say.
Know when the last time I've been to a movie was?
10th grade. And not because of political reasons... perhaps the poor quality and constant having to remake all the things...
Big tech giants? They're private businesses they can do whatever it is they please. Of course if there's any perception of being wronged or discriminated against then perhaps we should start our alternative to theirs?
NFL? I haven't watched NFL since I was a kid. I will play football and have. If I want to watch a football game. If I really must subject myself to 2 hours of pure boredom... at least make it entertaining and watch a college game where the players hit and aren't afraid to hit or get hit. This namby pamby patty cake at the line of scrimmage quarterbacks tossing it or dropping on a knee, 4th and 15 they're not going to go for it they're going to go for a field goal?
Television networks? Irrelevant. I watch at most 3 hours of TV and that's AHC. Or military history channel.
My forms of entertainment do not involve a smart phone a tablet an app or a big tech giant, and often times requires actual physical activity soo...
"...do you abstain from consuming any of the above because of your views?"
the only one i Pay For is Google since we pay for internet service.
we gave up Facebook several years ago.
the rest we sometimes watch, but they are free
on the internet. right now, watching NFL Playoffs for free.
I don't watch TV, but I do use google. Out of all that, google is the most useful product/service/whatever it is. I don't abstain from these companies and their products/services because of politics. I just don't need or want the crap they are pushing.

They also hate people who are not conservative, which is more than half of US population. And they hate Europe, UN, muslims, Africans, Latinos and 'city people'.

I did say some conservatives (not all Republicans) and my list is based on observations I've made by watching month's of right wing Youtube channels such as Daily Wire, Prager U, MRCTV and Info Wars. These seem to post videos regularly about the above 6 topics. As well as a few Facebook friends I have that complain about these as well.
Humans complain about everything. It isn't only a conservative phenomenon.
