Censorship by big tech at the behest of the U.S. government?

I try to keep that in mind when I read responses with which I personally degree.

Behind every comment is an actual person with a valid opinion. I may not agree with it, but perspective is key.

Some have said you learn the most listening to a critic/skeptic

When I was a boy in the 1980’s I used to hear the phrase, “I may disagree with what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it.” I haven’t heard it said in decades. As such, I find your comment extremely uplifting.

Even if the opinion is highly invalid, wrong, maybe arguably dangerous; the key that there is a person behind it is quite important. It's very easy to forget online, where you often only encounter one aspect of the person in one area.
