Well, look at what each group controls, right? The alt-right basically controls nothing. They are a small, largely insignificant group of people, relative to the population. I'm talking about the actual alt-right, not the new left's definition of alt-right (ANYONE who disagrees with ANY of their political ideologies). Now when it comes to the left, what do they control? They certainly control the universities at this point. By controlling academia, you control the minds / behaviours of the next generation of adults in the West. The media is largely far left-leaning these days. The biggest one of all though would be Big Tech. ALL of the major tech platforms like Google, Twitter, Twitch, Facebook, YouTube, etc. are all far left. Twitter, for example is very selective with enforcing their own ToS and clearly favours people with liberal agendas and Google / YouTube deliberately alter their search algorithms in order to prop up liberal content. This is a huge problem, because the internet has become such an invasive, necessary part of modern society's life and very few people know what's actually happening behind the scenes.

Neither of the tech companies you mention are left wing, neither was Obama. Pushing neo-liberal free market economy is not left wing. That is right-wing.

I would love an explanation of how Obama wasn't "left wing". Google openly admits themselves that they favour left wing identity politics. So while I understand what you're getting at by pointing out that they are a capitalist business, the way in which their search algorithms work are very pro-liberal (by their own admissions).
