    The big corps have always had a right wing bias. The corps bend over backwards to cator to these asshats while shitting all over the left.

    There’s a reason this stuff thrives on places like Facebook and will continue to do so. They also want a platform that has the widest reach.

    It’s why they want to be in the big sites instead of making their own because they want the rest of us to see their nonsense. There may not end up being a big hate presence on fedi stuff because any right wing instances will be broadly blacklisted either by the instances or by the users.

      Businesses love right wingers because they are more active, and engaged, than left wingers. They tend not to run adblock, and click and buy shit from adds. So the average right winger brings in more money than the average left winger.

      They also tend to get babied because the left will see someone break the rules and get punished and be all “Yeah, he deserved that”, but if a right winger gets held accountable, The entire flock goes full rabid and loses their shit with threats of violence, threats of bombings, protests, employee harassment, etc etc.
