I am deep down sure it is a psyop. Conservative media is just given more prominence. It could be through the algorithm directly, or through them getting better add rates. Probably a bit of everything. Conservatism is good for business. So everyone has a vested intrest in pushing it.

You don't have to go as far as it being a conspiracy. The bourgeois push far-right talking points because fascism is materially beneficial to them. This trickles down from your Fox News and your CNNs to The Based Anti-Woke Crusader and other such social media.

Exactly- There is no deep conspiracy. Fascism makes them money - so they are selling it to the people.
