The Best Way to Beat Left-Wing Social Media At Its Own Game

Remember when social media was fun? If you aren’t yet in your 30s you might not remember since you were a toddler at the time. Facebook status updates were funny, people interacted with them and everything you posted. Twitter was the place for quick quips and Instagram was where people showed you what they were eating. Now they’re all different forms of toilets, with left-wing “moderators” moving to silence opinions they don’t like or fear are too effective.
There’s a push to create an alternate online universe, a “safe space” for conservatives and anyone else who holds an opinion out of favor with the fascistic left. While this may sound like a good idea, it’s really just a Band-Aid on a bullet wound. It does nothing to address the problem. As I’ve said on this subject many times – no one ever surrendered their way to victory.
Retreating may sound like a viable option, maybe even the best one, but all it does is make the issues it’s supposedly created to address much worse. Yes, the choir needs to be preached to, but if all you do is preach to the choir, and you’re not a reverend, you are not winning anything.
Rather than retreat, a better course of action would be for all the capital being shoveled into these “alternative” platforms being pooled together to take over an existing one.
