    It’s wild that right wingers are always complaining about big tech censoring them when YouTube and Facebook are pushing far-right content so much

      I’ve got a conspiracy theory about this:

      1. Everyone likes kittens.
      2. Some of us who like kittens think about how to act decently to each-other, some of the time.

      Leading to:

      1. Right wingers who like kittens will sometimes see something “woke” in their algorithm feed, and they feel attacked.

      They still think that YouTube and Facebook are representative of the average person. They don’t understand how incredible curated those feeds are. I think that’s where some of the “silent majority” mythos comes from. Everything they see is people agreeing with them, therefore it’s impossible that Joe Biden got more votes in 2020.
