MSNBC leftist Stephanie Ruhle argued on Friday that, though Twitter/X is “the social media arm of the MAGA movement,” her fellow leftists should remain on the site so they don’t fall into an echo chamber.
“Elon Musk bought X and turned it into a, you know, the social media arm of the MAGA movement,” she began. “And we all sat there right in the middle of it during the campaign, possibly not realizing that we’re sitting there like fat chickens just getting attacked all day and just being part of this MAGA messaging.”
In reality, Twitter/X has always mostly been inhabited by Democrats. Not until billionaire Elon Musk purchased Twitter and transformed it into X did leftists start fleeing, causing the ratio between leftists and conservatives to even out:
Twitter (2022):
– 65% Democrat
– 31% Republican(2024)
– 48% Democrat
– 47% RepublicanSeems more balanced recently

Continuing her remarks, Ruhle then addressed the throng of deranged leftists who’ve fled X post the 2024 election to find solace in the safe space known as Bluesky.
“However, the election is over,” she said. “Everybody’s getting smarter and better. I’m not sure that the right idea is to leave Twitter and just go to Bluesky, a friendlier place, because then we remain in our echo chambers.”
“I don’t think that you should necessarily stay in Twitter every day and battle it out and let yourself doom scroll of all the hate coming at you, but I want to see it. I want to read what’s happening there, right? And so I think at least staying in those spaces is important because I want to hear the other things,” she added.
Listen to her full remarks below:
Responding to Ruhle’s complaints, critics bashed her for portraying Twitter/X as some sort of right-wing/MAGA site when the numbers clearly prove that Democrats still have a stronghold there.
“We know it’s shocking to you people because you really believed that everyone was on one side,” one critic tweeted. “The other side had been silenced for so long you forgot we existed. Elon opened the door for both sides.”
True.
“They THINK Musk turned X into MAGA but what they are too stupid to understand is Elon simply uncensored MAGA,” one critic added. “They are too stupid to realize THEY were censoring all voices but themselves. Truly stupid people incapable of critical thinking.”
Also true!

Just one social platform gets marginally less left of center and they lose their minds

This is demonstrably false. The app is evenly split amongst Dems and republicans. There is empirical data showing that. She’s just ranting like a fool

.@elonmusk didn’t turn X into a “MAGA movement” ffs.
He removed the censorship that was silencing Republican and conservative voices. That’s all. Nothing more.
The simple fact we have a voice is intolerable to these people.— Based Opinions (@Based_Opinion_) November 22, 2024
If X is the social media arm of the MAGA movement, according to Stephanie Ruhle, how is she on here with a following approaching 800,000? She’s just mad that conservatives with accounts much smaller than hers aren’t censored and banned anymore.

Once censorship was lifted X actually became a true reflection of society. Steph has difficulties with that now because mean people disagree with her pic.twitter.com/zk3yv77r7j

As for Bluesky, it’s certainly continuing to attract new members, though many of the members appear to be the scourge of society.
According to reports, for instance, pedophiles have set up shop on Bluesky. Surprise, surprise.
Observe:
Bluesky is a safe haven for pedophiles, and they want you to know that they’re against Trump.
What do you think about that? pic.twitter.com/T2qOwaD1Pz

Here is a thread of one of the all time worst takes, Bluesky user defends pedophile. If you think this is wrong, retweet, we need to expose what’s going on over there. pic.twitter.com/BMyhpYgoO3

Bluesky also appears to boast an abundance of adult men and women who enjoy wearing diapers for some inexplicable reason.

This is Bluesky. pic.twitter.com/rMnmAnUxuq

Critics for their part aren’t surprised by any of this.
“It’s a leftist echo chamber…. Naturally it’s going to be filled with degenerates,” one critic tweeted.
True!
