I think I agree?
Like, the right sucked at independent media. They couldn't hang whatsoever on Twitter or Reddit. They need to use billionaires to capture and co-opt these platforms to compete.
And like all the "conservative" social media? Its all 100% AstroTurf (rumble, etc.)
They didn't capture TikTok like that, yet at least in Europe they dominate that platform.
I wonder why the TikTok owners would push the divisive conservative rage bait to the top of their feeds in Europe.
The goals of China, much like Russia, are to sew divisions amongst their strongest rivals on the world stage. So, the conservative garbage gets a big boost on the platforms algorithms.
