The reason is simple. Misinformation sticks with conservatives more than liberals. With liberals, someone posts evidence that the story isn’t true and the whole thing fizzles out. If someone tries posting counter evidence in a conservative forum, they get banned.
There’s no money in trying to push misinformation to liberals.

I don’t think there’s a lot of blind people going to r/AccidentalRenaissance anyway.
It would make sense in context, if you’re talking about a video or video tape. Otherwise it would get confused with a cassette tape player.
Literally no one called them VHSs. They were just called video tapes. The players were called VCRs.
Conservatives love having corporate masters, so they’re all staying on reddit.
They still make 2D cartoons
