1) People with money tend to be rightwing so they can finance memes. For example, there was the Oculus Rift guy who got in a lot of trouble because he was funding super racist Pepe memes (seriously, I can't believe I typed that sentence). It doesn't take very many people to do this because of the viral nature of the internet.

2) Right wing people are easier to scam. Fake news content creators have tried to appeal to both rightwing and leftwing people and have consistently found that the right wing is easier to fleece.

3) "Cubicle culture" tends conservative. So the people with the most time to "like" and "spread" the memes are going to want self-reinforcing conservative content.
