Legacy tech firms are captives of and partners with the Deep State. However, more people are bypassing Twitter, Facebook, Google, etc., for new tech sites like Rumble, Brave, Truth Social, etc. Like the abandonment of the MSM 10-15 years ago, the big platforms are slowly losing their dominance.
Problem is, a lot of people get their little bit of news from the 6pm news which parrots the cable versions but in a little milder way. I’ve got a neighbor who gets his news at 6pm from ABC St Louis. They made Trump out to be a tweeting frenzied lunatic. When covid hit, they pumped up the fear and then when the jabs came out, it turned into 20 out of 30 minutes being a jab infomercial.
People watch the 6pm news mostly for the weather but also to see what’s going on locally and learn any major national/international goings on. They have no clue how things are spun and if you try and tell them that they’ve been getting fed a bs narrative for many years, they can’t accept it.
Easier to fool people than to convince them they’ve been fooled.
