That's not "right", that's conspiracy thinking (as long as there is no evidence anyway).
The problem is we have proof that US elections are being hacked. In 2016 there were several precincts in our upper MidWest that recorded more votes than there were eligible voters. There's computer forensic evidence (I've seen and read it) that shows the voting machines in Mesa County, Colorado were tampered with in the 2020 elections, with early voting results actually destroyed as a result.
What we don't know is if these types of issues are widespread enough to have changed election outcomes.

The Pournelle Political Axes
You may wish to read this, which is a short summary of the late Jerry Pournelle's views on the subject. Briefly, he places political "isms" on at least two axes, rather than the "standard" left vs. right. He doesn't claim that his division is perfect, only that it makes more sense than the one-dimensional division.
Freedom is the freedom to say that two plus two make four. If that is granted, all else follows.

Everything I've read indicates our liberals are closer to European centrists. The big difference between the left and right right now, as far as I can see, is that the 'left' at least acknowledges we are all in this together, and need to make a better world taking as many people into consideration as possible. The 'right' seems to think it is only the survival of the fittest, and we should cull everyone else.

Not just journalists. Nowadays, everyone is trying to indoctrinate everyone else. The only difference is that journalists have more reach.

That was Mayotte. Looks like it is not a full fledged country, but more a French colony.
