There has been election fraud. To the extent it was organized has yet to be determined, I'm very skeptical of conspiracy. The fact YouTube will delete complaints, and evidence is very scary. This should scare everyone.

How do we know it isn't true if they decided what the truth is?

You might agree with Google, on this issue, but wait until they have interest in something that kills people, and Google decides to take down evidence to persuade the public.

Apple does this crap all of the time.

Has there been election fraud? What evidence supports this claim?

Video evidence (which is being taken down), eye witness testimont (affadavits), statistical anomilies.

The video evidence might be wrong, the witnesses might by lying, the statistical evidence might be able to be explained, but I don't need Google hiding the information from me.

This just makes it look like there is something to hide.

Bullshit.

> eye witness testimont

Literally the lowest rung of evidence that is, in studies, increasingly shown to be unreliable.

> statistical anomilies

Already thoroughly debunked:

Google is in fact making it easier to arrive at this conclusion rather than allowing SEO trickery to run the show here.

Bullshit? You apparently don't understand, or haven't read the definition of evidence.

Who has debunked what? Show your evidence.
