Trump situation. Not Trump. I am not sure what the context of the discussion was, but I am sure a Project Veritas video doesn't give the whole context. It could be referencing something unrelated to the election. Maybe it was about Net Neutrality or some other anti big tech signaling. Large companies have more sway than smaller ones. The fact that you go from one no-context quote to "silencing conservative perspectives" is not good. Please keep thinking critically.

There's more context than that single quote, including the other strong evidence of overt bias in other sources, like OPs article. I get the feeling you didn't watch the video.


To a conservative, is "preventing the next Trump situation" any different than "preventing Trump"? I'm not arguing that Google shouldn't do this, I'm pointing out that the optics are garbage if we argue they aren't.

Have you watched any? I would suggest you do before trying to convince others of their content. Again, what you are doing is garbage optics.

Another quote from Jen Gennai: "the same people who voted for the president do not agree with our view of fairness"
