Every time I see that question I roll my eyes HARD. But especially when I see someone ask that question about Gemini.
Because Gemini makes this one fact even more obvious than the WWW: Opinions don’t spring out of the aether for you to passively read and nod along with. They are formed by human beings. So if there aren’t enough of your favorite political opinions available for you to read, whose fault is that? Get your friends to post. Don’t complain that random people you don’t know are failing to cater their output to your tastes.
At least the nature of Gemini makes it impossible to (reasonably) argue about ~~~censorship~~~. Although some people these days do manage to have the opinion that they’re being censored if others choose not to read or engage with their content, lol.
