This. Rightwingers are crazy and evil, so their posts will generate more outrage, which drives more traffic, which generates more ad revenue. Social media doesn't care that they're accelerating the downfall of society, so long as they get their cut.

Which also means the "social media is silencing right-wing viewpoints!" thing is objectively nonsense. Pretty much every platform has some degree of right-leaning bias in the outcome of its algorithms, which is entirely the opposite of what the free speech pearl clutchers believe and claim.
