Censorship and the elites and the rest of us. What is your take on this?

So you must agree that free speech covers a MAGA's huge volume of nothing but lies, just like all the other liars out there.
Is MAGA actually nothing but a Big Lie also. My nod is its just a pack of Liars with tons of money to go & get it off. Does
a small circle around Southern Florida mostly coral all of its Dumping into the unsanitary Canal, sorta sound right.
 

There is also influence by manipulation, if that's the right way to put it.
I am a member of three other forum sites as well as this one, and the admins obviously have their own agenda. Anyone whose opinion differs from theirs is ridiculed and discouraged from posting. Anyone reading the posts gets a completely false impression as the views are all one-sided.
It's vital that everyone has access to a site where people are encouraged to express their views, whatever they are. The only rule should be that everything is kept polite and courteous.

If you mean when we use search engines such as Google, then yes. Corporate-owned search engines/browsers filter your search results to benefit their corporate interests. But there are multiple private search engines that don't, and they're free.

I don't use Google Search, and I don't have a google account ...or a Microsoft one, either. I had both on my old PC, and it effected my ability surf the web freely. I didn't even realize that until I got a new computer. Your device works best if you don't create those kind of accounts. You don't need them.

Already in 2012 Rowan Atkinson ("Mr. Bean") delivered a speech at the launch event in Parliament on free speech. Today, 12 years later, this is even more important as it was at that time. If you watch it on YouTube directly, you can read the excellent comments too.
