I don't think the claim is that social media is inherently leftist, but rather than leftists have mounted attacks on all social media companies that don't actively censor right-wing opinions (see current ad boycott targeted at Facebook). I think the success of these campaigns are extremely concerning and a reminder that peace and prosperity are not a given.

Companies should be accountable to their customers. When a large group of those customers collectively exercise their rights to let a company know the company's values don't align with those customers, that seems like a pretty reasonable demonstration of the market.
