What do you mean?

My best guess is they mean that leftists tend to prefer abandoning mainstream social media platforms than fighting against the right on them. Hence Facebook, twitter etc turning full right wing while we find refuge in places like here.

The right owns those platforms and most of the leftists are still there regardless.

Regardless if they own them. It’s still where the most amount of social relevance is. Some are there and it’s growing. But the left cannot win anything going forward unless they beat the fuck out of the reich on these platforms. They own it, but they can’t just flip a switch saying censor lefties and allow their ideas to spread. We’d all know and it would wildly turn a lot of people away from them. They are forced to leave the gates open. So instead they convince us to self censor. Reality is we all should be there now, building groups and putting their ideas against the ropes. It’s a numbers game. Play the game. Give them no area to spread bullshit uncontested.
