Something I’ve noticed is that it’s always the bigots who heavily manipulate social media while it seems like the other side tends to sit back and cross their fingers that social manipulation won’t be enough to overwhelm the truth. Why is it that the other side never does the same? Morality? A belief that goodness will always win in the end? The problem is that goodness refuses to stoop to the same tactics as evil, and when evil controls the narrative, evil wins. Which is more immoral, manipulating the narrative or following the rules and letting evil spread lies and deal damage until people eventually wake up to it?
The bigots are backed by the global conservative propaganda machine, funded by major corporations — for every fact they generate a dozen lies and conspiracy theories.
The “left” has no comparable psychological warfare apparatus.
