I don't see much discussion of how heritage, turning point USA, pragerU, and other far right organizations are fully subsidized by fascist billionaires. These "far right influencers" are in turn pushed in front of people's eyeballs. JD Vance is a perfect example being Thiel funded from day 1. - ThreadSky

The left has almost no "good billionaires" advocating for higher taxes and more socialism. Fear and hate sell, yes. But we can't forget this is a symptom of a class war where the money men want the 1930s, and have been paying through the nose to get it for years.

Yes but also: The left’s good billionaires all fund things like food shelves & malaria nets. Which are wonderful! But I’ve seen a generation of good journalists starved out of the field, and into the vacuum steps right wing pods & YouTube.

That's an interesting consideration; that good billionaires are out there doing projects, not funding whatever a liberal Charlie Kirk would be.

Right. Look closer at your excellent visualization to which of those blue dots are focused on women and children you see that the left has entirely ceded conversation about home and health to the right wing. Where is any lefty mom chit-chat about, say, how great it is having your kids not get polio?
