TikTok is a political scapegoat because they’re Chinese-owned, and they have long been taking serious eyeballs & money away from American oligarchs - so said oligarchs are pulling whatever strings are at their disposal to eliminate the outflow of money to places they can’t easily get it back from.

Reddit has quite a range of political fiefdoms. Compared to what “X” has become, virtually anything more tolerant of non-right-wing opinions looks significantly more liberal, even though the reality is that much of it is neoliberal at best (i.e. what used to pass for “centrist”). True leftists will tell you that the liberals of today have far more in common with conservatives of decades past than they do with actual leftists. That fact helped cost Harris the election.

When it comes to Twitter/X, you’d be hard pressed to point out other communities that are significantly more extreme in their right-wing audience than those that have flocked to there over the past couple of years. There are plenty of right-wing communities nowadays, but they’re all about the same because they’re all heavily extremist-leaning - you just can’t get much more right-wing without becoming Mussolini (or similar).

In the end, Twitter was attacked because - despite Musk’s claims to the contrary - it’s undeniable how much extremist right-wing content is favored. If you can’t see that, then you seriously need a reality check.
