This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
The reason is simple. Misinformation sticks with conservatives more than liberals. With liberals, someone posts evidence that the story isn't true and the whole thing fizzles out. If someone tries posting counter evidence in a conservative forum, they get banned.
There's no money in trying to push misinformation to liberals.
i would note that nothing is without nuance. while nowhere near comparable, there are some liberals that are also new-age hippies. (B.C. canada) that aren't 100% on their fact checking.
but that's unavoidable in any group that is large and diverse enough.
i think it's a cultural mentality that discourages critical thinking which leads to most conservative ideology to begin with.
You're right. The Far-Left has the same problem. Pretty much any anti-establishment group falls into this. Difference is, the far-left has no political power and they don't want to exterminate people.
"Misinformation."
No, call it what it is: propaganda.
There isn't any Republican propaganda which isn't misinformation at best (the rest being disinformation).
What does this have to do with tech? This seems more political.
In other news wather is wet.
Been seing lots of ralying post latelly whit the us vs them mentality, looks like its working though so congrats to yah feds. Divide and conquer is as old as warfare itself isnt it?
That’s because liberals are better at identifying misinformation. Pretty simple & straightforward.
