The GOP pretends to hate Facebook/social media, but it's actually their biggest asset to spread their message. The top 10 posts on Facebook every month for the past few years have been by rightwing or right-adjacent content creators. Researchers have found that Facebook prioritizes rightwing messaging over others and allows rightwing content creators to violate Facebook's own rules without penalty.

It's all happening in plain sight but you'd never guess that based on the victim-messaging the right spews about social media.

I’d reframe it more like this: Facebook prioritizes content that is engaging, that usually comes from rightwing because their tactic is division with Right vs. Left. whereas Dems try to frame the division as All of us vs. the wealthy few.
