So, you may have a point, but I don't have enough counter information to check your assertion.

Here's the deal. You think that Trump is corrupt, but Trump supporters and myself think that Trump is the least corrupt and the best candidate. Because censorship on big tech platforms, there are now pockets of echo chambers where bad ideas are not exposed to counter ideas. You are not going to be ale to reach Trump supporters on "common ground" with allies of your ideas to combat any bad ideas that Trump supporters have. The same goes for Trump supporters trying to expose Biden. Saidit.net does not censor much, but because it does not have a large user base, there's no "culture" (for lack of a better word) of competing ideas.

So, I'm stuck having to continue thinking that Trump is a good candidate because I cannot vet your claim that he's corrupt. I can only hold the possibility that he's corrupt, but default to the assumption that either you're (please don't take offense) a propagandists, or you're misinformed.

So with all that said, I'd like to ask you to consider the bigger problem of big tech censorship. We need more people from both sides to condemn big tech and to advocate for migration to sites that don't or cannot censor content. I'd be happy to be wrong (I'm not wed to the idea that Trump's the best candidate.), but given the censorship and the inability to ask questions in the presence of equally representative view points (and informed people), I have to default to my assumption that you're wrong, and I'm right.
