And they wonder why Santos got elected.
Nobody "wonders why Santos got elected"... we know why... it's not some secret.

Social Media... period. That is the issue.

While you screech about "MSM" you conveniently forget where most people get their bias confirmed.

Social media definitely swings left - Reddit, FB, YouTube, TikTok, Insta, Snap, WikiPedia - they all are demonstrably left. Reddit is easily the worst offender at limiting conservative voices and creating an echo chamber of progressive ideas.

Yes.

When they ALL jumped on board with the (ridiculous) Lefty lie that Hunter’s laptop was Russian disinformation they embarrassed themselves. Still no apology, but now normal folks know they lie, lie, lie. Shamelessly. Cause that one was a whopper.

Yep I don’t know what he’s even talking about. Pretty much ALL major social media is run by leftists and moderated by leftists.

I like how the righties keep bringing Hunter Biden into literally every topic. Just seems like that is the robotic "go to" nowadays when they can't think of a good argument just keep using the Hunter Biden card.

By the way anyone see those mugshots coming out of GA? Quite a sight to behold.

Lol Get real man, Twitter was always a complete left wing dominated echo chamber only recently started allowing some dissenting opinion after Elon took over, it’s better now but still full of left wing posters. A right wing site it’s not. Lol Parler (does that even exist anymore), Rumble, TS? All tiny blips in the internet compared to the massive left wing dominated social media companies. The left absolutely dominates 95% of the social media space

I like how the lefties keep bringing up Donald Trump into literally every topic. Just seems like the robotic “go to” nowadays when they can’t think of a good argument just keep using the Donald Trump card.

See what I did there? The left has been doing what you are whining about for YEARS even after he left office. Lmao!

Twitter has pretty much done a complete 180 under Musk and you're complaining because it's still "full of left wing posters"? Are you suggesting they all be banned and censored?

Is that really surprising given that most of social media are dominated by youth who tend to overwhelmingly be left wing? But even still conservatives have plenty of presence in those "left wing dominated" social media companies. Last I checked Trump has over 30M followers on FB and even Reddit that was called the "worst offender" on here has over 1M users in their conservative sub.

You act like he's not the republican frontrunner for president right now lol. It was I think only 6 posts into this thread about George Santos before someone brought up Hunter Biden for some reason.

You are putting words into my mouth, when did I say that?? I’m just saying Twitter isn’t some right wing dominant form of social media. The left still has a ton of influence there. 30M followers is NOTHING nowadays and nothing compared to his Twitter following, please. Stop trying you can’t win this argument.

Biden is friggen president NOW what his son does yes matters especially if he was involved illegally in his business dealings while VP. Every time a dem politician is questioned about it they get flustered and blab about trump even though he has absolutely nothing to with the Hunter situation

The same group (media, lefties) that told us Hunter’s laptop was Russian disinformation is now telling us Joe had nothing to do with Hunter’s influence peddling schemes.

I wonder whose influence Hunter was peddling.
