It’s surreal that a popular Republican position now is: “We want the government to impose giant fines and new regulations on the most successful American businesses of the past decade, hopefully destroying them.”
Regardless of the merits of the idea, it’s an amazing paradigm shift for the GOP.
I don't think that is the position. I think they are just tired of a perceived bias against the right by left leaning aggregation organizations compounded with the cancel culture.
That's the thing, it's perceived and not real. Media outlets driving that narrative are lying to their viewers for clicks. If someone refuses to drop their bias in face of contrary evidence or that evidence isn't even presented alongside the initial claim, they may be watching an entertainment channel, not a news channel.
I can’t speak for Twitter and Facebook, but it’s absolutely real on Reddit. All one needs to do is look at how they treated r/the_donald compared to r/politics.
