Lefties Freak out on Conservatives for Doing Exactly What The Left Told Them to Do

Over the last several years, as the strong-arm of big-tech and corporate woke-ism have taken hold, there’s been one common refrain from the left when the right has complained of censorship: Build your own. This from redstate.com.

Whether we are talking about book publishers canceling conservative authors or social media companies banning the free distribution of verifiable news stories just because they counter the leftwing narrative (see: Hunter Biden), the complaints of those on the right have drawn jeers. “Just create your own Twitter” they screamed in response.

Well, apparently, those same lefties are now upset by the fact that conservatives are doing exactly what lefties told them to do.

We knew there was going to be a Brian Stelter tweet involved, but the actual report comes from Axios.

In it, someone named Sara Fischer frets loudly about the fact that right-wing media is flourishing in response to the authoritarian dictates of the left.

She uses analytical examples, from right-leaning app downloads to conservative video sites, to make the point that an entire conservative ecosystem is forming and subverting the establishment.

Further, it is going to be much more expansive than just right-leaning news sites and Parler. You are going to see conservatives tackle multiple aspects of the economy as the left gains more and more power within corporate America, from hosting services to banking.

Last check, that’s exactly what conservatives were told they’d have to do by snarling leftwingers who set out to demean anyone who dared complain of corporate America’s illiberal shift.

As censorship has increased, from banks blocking legal gun sales to YouTube demonizing mainstream conservative political commentary, those on the right have set out to “build their own” just as the left demanded.

 

This isn’t necessarily the world we wanted, but it’s the one we were handed by people with tyrannical notions of controlling speech and behavior.

So, for anyone on the left to now grind their teeth over that growth in the conservative ecosystem is hilarious—and laughably hypocritical. But, of course, liberalism IS a hypocrisy.

 

Think about it. These people colluded to ban the President of the United States from social media while Iran’s supreme leader still posts anti-Semitic tripe routinely.

The Taliban are allowed to have Twitter accounts while mainline conservatives are kicked off the platform for uttering the basic truth that a man is not a woman.

What did the left think was going to happen? That conservatives were going to just sit back and take it? That they wouldn’t grow their own sites and platforms to compete with the gatekeepers?

There is a lesson here on American ingenuity.

Lefties seem to have overlooked the proverb: Necessity is the mother of invention.

Abusive and egocentric as they are, they refused to share their toys to a point that conservatives saw a need to develop work arounds. Well, now the conservatives not only have designs on work arounds, they are creating bigger and better toys of their own.
