They already show heavily curated content, with a conscious and intentional bias into presenting, for example, groups in a light that doesn’t match reality.

You won’t find info about any merely “controversial” idea on Google, it’s all censored, it’s all disinformation already. Try even finding memes, you generally won’t find them. Try finding info that doesn’t paint some politicians in a good light, you won’t find it, even though it exists with the exact keywords you type in and the crawler returns a success for that page.

So what do you mean, while you already trust Google to give its bias to the current world?

What’s a good example that I can Google for but won’t find results (censored) or where only one side is presented?

I will Google it and report back…

[wredue]

Yeah. You gotta be searching for some real bonkers shit to have google not show it up.

The most completely batshit insane groups I’m willing to google anymore are flat earthers, young earth creationists, and Facebook mom groups, and google happily indexes and returns favourable results for all of these.

Even looking at off the deep end alt-right content like men’s rights, red pilled, trucker convoy, anti-masker, Tate, etc, google has zero issues return favourable results for all of them in a private window.

Really begs the question of just what level of illegal shit this dude is trying to get google to return.

Classic hacker discourse...

1. Bunch all people who disagree with you into one and claim they are some kind of group. Bonus for listing 12 or more "groups".

2. Raise suspicion about the user you're replying to. Maybe they belong to one of those people you just listed? Maybe they are a terrorist? Maybe they voted for the wrong guy? Should we call the police? Of course we should! He's even trying to make Google show "bonkers shit, bat shit and illegal shit".

No matter how hard you try to follow the line, one day you will find yourself in one of those groups who people like yourself try to bunch together, and be exposed to the same level of suspicion and hatred that you yourself are unloading in your comment.

People who make suspicious, dubious claims deserve to have their claims called out.

I am not going to give up on calling out this purposefully vague, bullshit commentary just because you dislike it. If you don’t like having your sides bullshit being called out, don’t post it.

It’s actually hilarious how eerily similar your group is.

>oh woe as us, we’re such big victims

Someone responds shutting it down

>why do you have to call out the posts. Can’t you just not respond

Every single time like clock work. It’s like you guys all belong to a forum of AI generated comments and responses and you just copy and paste them.

I don't think anybody is interested in giving you an example, because they expect that it will get them banned from HN, or at least have their comment flagged and removed by activists.

Google does censor content, and they are kind enough to inform the owner of a website by e-mail when they have censored the content from their search results, so it is a fact that is just undeniable.

[andsoitis]

What a nice escape hatch. I can't give you and example because I will be banned if I do, ergo there are cases that will get me banned. Not QED.
