I am super centrist also, and all it's done is make me angrier and angrier at the state of things. I guess it's pushing me more libertarian watching all this insanity. The craziest thing is that R's and D's have basically flipped entirely on most major issues over the last few decades.

Couldn't you just open Fox News, Breitbart, OANN, or any of the other easily available, popular right-wing sites? Or how about the National Review, Daily Caller, or WSJ Opinion section?
Please show us an example of one single search where you can't find an expected right-leaning perspective in the results.

On my first attempt I proved what I said above.
I went to YouTube, typed "Tucker Carlson" and got a Jimmy Kimmel video as my first result.
I am genuinely curious if anyone can explain that.
I also had to scroll down 8 results before an actual Tucker Carlson video appeared.

I can't reproduce that result.
I just opened an incognito in Chrome and searched for Tucker Carlson[1]. Most of my results were from Fox News, almost all were from Carlson's show. John Oliver is 10 results down[2].

I'm a super centrist. Anyone who is on the left has no clue of the censorship going on. I have to use Google-Fu to find anything of substance on the right.
