Good work, but use Perplexica instead of Perplexity to remove political bias

You should use Perplexica, which is a clone of Perplexity. Perplexica can be run locally. Use Perplexica instead of Perplexity to remove political bias since Perplexity is corporate and has inserted it's own political bias into the search results.

Perplexity itself has become a distributor of American left-wing propaganda.
It wasn't long before Perplexity introduced political bias into it's algorithm. Sometime last year, Perplexity got some very big investors.

After being funded, Perplexity stopped using right-wing websites in their sources. All of the sources are now left-wing biased instead of a mix of left and right like it used to be.

In some cases, Perplexity has actually blacklisted far-right websites, but not far-left websites. Insert a hyperlink to a page to one of these and it will refuse to download and read the page.

For English speaking Westerners, models like DeepSeek and Qwen actually seem less politically biased than Llama, Claude, and ChatGPT. DeepSeek and Qwen probably seem more biased to Chinese speakers who have different political orientation.

You should use [...]

Your definition of should differs from mine.

Did they really do this? That has been my question since they do have a political bent. Qwen is VERY biased/censored but deepseek was not except on a handful of CCP-centric issues I already know and never ask about.
