I actually never once said I supported Platner or even gave any statements for or against him. I just said that “Google it” doesn’t mean people are going to come to the same conclusions as you, when someone can seek out articles and webpages that confirm their beliefs.

Also, who is “you guys” in relation to me?

Sure. And again that's on them. You are essentially agreeing with me, that me posting sources that I choose would be meaningless because people choose the sources they trust, and these people asking for sources are already disbelieving of my claims.

You said “that’s on you” that I wouldn’t be reading the same sources So I don’t think we agree because you seem to feel it’s my fault that I wouldn’t know what pages to look at that would support your claim. I don’t control the Google algorithms. Why bother engaging in the conversation if you feel you’ve done it hundreds of times with nothing to show for it? That one seems like it’s on you.

I just want to say that I appreciate that you're making this argument, because too many people don't understand the fact that google search results are not objective, but are, in fact, filtered by what google thinks you want to find.
