The clowns on the Democrat left have done it again. In an effort to claim there is no conservative bias on social media, the ‘experts’ show President Trump crushed Biden in social media as well....In fact, claims of anti-conservative bias are themselves a form of online disinformation that Republicans have sought to wield to turn their supporters against Big Tech, according to researchers at the Center for Business and Human Rights at New York University’s Stern School of Business.....Roll Call states that in spite of conservative censorship Trump crushed Biden on social media as well:

The NYU report also compared Facebook likes, shares and comments on Donald Trump’s and Joe Biden’s pages from Sept. 3, 2020, to Election Day, the most intense part of the campaign, and found Trump dominant.

There are three basic truths in play:

1) When given an even playing field, the Left gets crushed on the internet.

2) Over the years Social Media platforms have become more and more biased in order to combat this and protect the Left until its become blatant and obvious to everyone.

3) The two above truths are heresy to the Left, so they must find a way to deny them.

So in claiming there is no bias against conservatives in social media, they aren’t claiming there is no bias against conservatives by the folks that RUN social media, or how they operate the platforms - but rather only that those that PARTICIPATE in social media have a tilt towards conservatism?
