Last week the corrupt media’s penchant for spinning all things conservative caused a near-fatal case of whiplash.
The left began by chastising conservatives for supposedly building “its own echo chamber,” but by the next day, when news broke that Devin Nunes was resigning from Congress to serve as the CEO of Donald Trump’s new media company, the complained-of conservative ecosystem merely represented grift. Both narratives are false, however, which is precisely why leftists peddled them so hard.
Axios launched the “echo chamber” accusation with its article titled, “Right wing builds its own echo chamber.” “Conservatives are aggressively building their own apps, phones, cryptocurrencies and publishing houses in an attempt to circumvent what they see as an increasingly liberal internet and media ecosystem,” the Axios article began.
The article then highlighted plans for the YouTube alternative Rumble and Trump’s social media company, Truth Social, to expand their reach by taking the companies public. Also highlighted was the social app Gettr that former-Trump aide Jason Miller launched, as well as conservative efforts to compete in cryptocurrency, phones, cloud storage, and book publishing.
“The bottom line,” Axios closed, was that, “Conservative media has been a powerhouse for a long time, but this phase of its expansion isn’t just about more or louder conservative voices — it’s about building an entire conservative ecosystem.”
The refusal by conservatives to continue “to consume” the product of the increasingly “deranged and unaccountable lefty media” is not about building an echo chamber, however: It is about competition and choice. And branding these new business ventures an “ecosystem” and “echo chamber” merely reveal the left’s panic over their inability to control the narrative.
The corrupt media quickly put a brake on the echo-chamber attack when...

They’re so predictable. And my tagline is proven true every single day.

I prefer my echo chamber to their echo chamber any day!
Mine, too.
If a marxist “utopia” is indeed the endgame for these leftists, then this is another warning shot they will take very seriously.
Socialism/marxism cannot exist if there are any other choices out there. If you give self-sufficient, entrepreneurial strong people a place to go to, then you will leave all the dregs and deadbeats to suffer in their marxist hell with no one to leach on but each other. They cannot have this. It must be accomplished with power from the top down, and it must in finality be done globally.
Controlling the communication/information infrastructure is only part of the plan. It’s not necessarily top-down the way our society is currently structured, but it most certainly helps buffer the power grab from alternatives to the propaganda.
will the LEFT be banned from Truth Social?
i doubt it
the echo chamber will be on twitter
the debate will be on Truth Social
I will absolutely support in action and money any parallel, classic liberal (i.e. modern day conservative) organizations or power structures, until leftists infiltrate and destroy them, of course.
The Left was freaking out about the existence of Parler as an alternative social media platform in 2020, and used every dirty trick they had to destroy it.
The threat to the Left was that conservatives could talk and discuss issues, and that the observations could cross pollinate Twitter and Facebook.
The Left tries very hard to stifle the emergence of Trumpist influencers, by discovering them early on their social media, and banning them before they gain too much of a following.

All we have today is the left's echo chamber! The left hate free choice and free speech.
What a breath of fresh air will be competition where you can chose the deafening left's echo chamber, or you can be treated like a person with dignity, integrity, and free choice.
You have no free choice today with the left; they tell you what to think. When they are proven wrong, they just move on to the next lie.
While an ego system outside the leftist hive mind is great, nobody in the hive mind will consume it. There will still be a core of leftist ignorance in their echo chamber, and likely there will be fewer rational people left in their echo chamber to try to red pill them.
*eco not ego...lol
The “Progressives” should be worried about competition.

So now to the left, having a job and working for your income is considered “grift”…
It’s about time we had a parallel economy where we can buy from companies that don’t downright hate us, wish to destroy us - and portray us as morons and fools in their advertising.
GREAT.
EVERYONE SHOULD GET OUT OF Twitter, Facebook, Meta and all those left wing censoring democrat media programs.
VOTE, DEMOCRATS OUT !!
Vote them out .
The Right needs to fight on the media front and the education front where they have been getting their heads handed to them. Of course the Left will be upset if they lose thee two monopolies or at least have competition. Competition will ensure the defeat of the Left.
