So they can gather more followers for their atrocious ideology of the echo chambers that are Bluesky and Mastodon
Bluesky is right-leaning
Is that only true if you recognize that Dems are right of center?
Yes and no. Dems are right-center because Yankees won't touch anything resembling communism with a 20-foot pole. But Bluesky is centralized and controlled by an american for-profit, which is inherently not-left (like Reddit).
Being operated by a right leaning organization isnβt the same as having a right leaning user base, though
Itβs heavy with American liberals and European centralists - they are similar. Both groups lean more rightward each year
Explain that to right-wingers. Good luck.
