It's basically people thinking that Russian disinformation is a political belief.

People are angry that a search engine (something dedicated to giving you relevant and true information based on what you searched for) is less likely to give you Russian state propaganda because the right wing have associated their political beliefs with that of pure free speech without realizing that such a thing just doesn't make sense in most modern settings.

The political beliefs here refer to the CEO's political beliefs, given that this reaction is a consequence of the CEO's views on the conflict in Ukraine. There is a reason why DDG isn't actively censoring Chinese, American or Israeli disinformation as well, and that's because it's not in the CEO's political beliefs to do so.

But since you're trying to muddy the waters, I'm not "right wing" nor do I support the Russian invasion into Ukraine. I would have a similar reaction if CNN, Fox News or BBC were censored as well. I also wholly reject that a search engine's purpose is for "giving you [...] true information" -- I don't need that nor have I asked for it.
