That's a claim that's commonly echoed on the right, but that's mostly because of filter bubbles.
Centre-left politics (or even leftist politics such as Bernie Sanders) are still firmly founded in facts and data.
But that's not what people perceive. Take for example crime. Crime statistics have trended down in all areas for years. Yet you'll hear more about crime in your Twitter feed or on conservative news today than you'd have heard 10, 20 years ago.
This kind of selection bias can lead to a massively different perception of reality compared to what actual reality is.
