    I’ve never hear the phrase “reality has a leftist bias”. in which contexts is it usually applied?

      When the context is the person thinks “liberal” means “leftist.”

      The phrase is “reality has a liberal bias,” in response to media support of liberal viewpoints. Usually because they can back them up with proof.

      The problem they have is, even in solely American context, there’s a difference between “the left” and “leftists.”

      A common one recently is in response to the assertion that chatGPT and similar LLMs have a leftist bias, when the reality is that they’re just regurgitating the data they’ve been fed.

      One example I particularly remember was someone asking chatGPT what it thought of trump, which it responded to with a list of things Trump lied about or fucked up. Never mind that it was all accurate, it “clearly” showed that it has a left bias lol

      It’s actually untrue. Consensus reality is a social construct created by the white supremacist state. Science and truth are left wing, but reality is right wing, because reality is incompatible with science and truth. Reality is what the white colonisers brought to Australia and the new world along with god and capitalism.
