    It’s honestly hilarious how small the conservative footprint on the internet is - while absolutely awful and hateful… 3 million followers, really? I know niche content creators with bigger followings.

    Edit: As an example - cooking recipes from old cookbooks (i.e. Dylan Hollis) has three times the audience.

      Even really niche content like LockPickingLawyer on YouTube has nearly 4.5 million followers. And I actively see people referencing him. Libs of Tik Tok really only pops up in articles like this.

      Of course, I also don’t really hang out in places where fans of it might congregate. But from my perspective it’s just not something that seems to have a large influence.

    Did anyone see that interview with Taylor Lorenz? Chaya’s so dumb. This anti-LGBT stuff is her bread and butter and she doesn’t know a damn thing about it.
