MSNBC freaked out over X owner Elon Musk’s potential impact on the 2024 race, ignoring a recent report that the biggest names in Big Tech massively favor Democrats.
A new report by Fortune revealed that since 2020, Silicon Valley executives—who predominantly support Democrats—spent over $75 million more on campaign donations than Silicon Valley executives who predominately give to Republicans. Despite this disparity and the well-documented history of election interference on behalf of Democrats by platforms like Google, MSNBC anchor Ayman Mohyeldin chose to lash out over Musk’s endorsement of former President Donald Trump. During the Oct. 6 edition of Ayman, Mohyeldin belittled Big Tech censorship while he and his guests fretted over Musk’s impact.
“I am old enough to remember when Republicans were complaining and up in arms that tech bros or Big Tech companies and their leaders were the ones trying to help tip the scales for Democrats and ads on Facebook and Meta and all this,” Ayman claimed. He proceeded to go after Musk for supporting Republicans before saying that “it’s always projection with everybody people on the right, it seems.”
People on the right aren’t imagining the censorship or Big Tech’s leftist bias. According to Fortune, former Google CEO Eric Schmidt mostly donates to Democrats and gave at least $19,490,000.
Even worse, Google has interfered in American elections on behalf of its preferred candidates at least 41 times from 2008 through early 2024. For example, Google buried seven Republican Senate candidates’ campaign websites in 2022. Google has continued to do so since then, burying Trump’s campaign website as well as any election coverage by a source right of Lenin.
Fortune also noted that Facebook co-founder Dustin Moskovitz, who gave at least $59,780,000 to political causes, predominantly supports Democrats. Meta has also famously interfered in elections on behalf of the Democratic Party, with CEO and Founder Mark Zuckerberg recently admitting that Facebook and Instagram wrongly censored the Hunter Biden laptop story and “COVID-19 content” in response to government pressure. Former Facebook CIO Sheryl Sandberg has given $1,500,000 and mostly donates to Democrats.
Other prominent Big Tech players mentioned in the Fortune article include people like Microsoft Founder Bill Gates ($1,690,000), his wife, Melinda Gates ($2,090,000), and LinkedIn Founder Reid Hoffman ($55,500,000) all of whom have left-leaning donation histories according to Fortune.
