Bitch about Biden thread

Sorry Zipr

Don't worry about it. I stupidly participated in the derail too.

Zuckerburg, Bezos, and yes Musk voted for Hillary as well.

Cite?

Prior to the 2016 United States presidential election, Musk donated to Hillary Clinton and later said he voted for her. In November 2016, Musk criticized Donald Trump as "not the right guy" in an interview with CNBC.

As for Zuckerburg and Bezos I can not find a cite using a the liberal search engine google, however both were married to extremely liberal wives and both contributed heavy to the Democrat party.

How is a search engine "liberal"?

It's well established that reality has a liberal bias.

I get that. Search engines are tools and are only as effective and useful as the person using them. In my mind, if a search engine can be "liberal", then so can a claw hammer or staple remover. Clearly, my understanding most be limited. So I am trying to understand why someone would view a search engine as "liberal " or "conservative".

Over the years, this forum has truly opened my eyes to the wide variety of perceptions of reality that people may have. I do try to understand as much as I can, but it is really hard work sometimes.

I can not prove or disprove this. But Google does have algorithms that favor not only political content but advertisers with their search engine. For example, if they don't like a political stance those results simply won't come up. Or if they do like your political stance or if you are an advertiser that pays well, those searches will always not only come up but appear first in line.

So yes, Google is a tool like a hammer. But if that hammer is specialized for laying small tacks then you can expect it will not get very good results for pounding out concrete. And yes, you and others will also accuse the conservatives for being conspiracy theorists since there is no way to prove what really goes on in a private company. That is......until some billionaire like Musk buys out the extremely liberal management so that their Twitter like shenanigans do become exposed to the general public.

So your claim is dismissible out of hand for being unfalsifaible. Thanks for getting that out so quickly. See how that works? When someone suggests they can't support or debunk a claim, the claim has no value.

Oh wait... you still believe what you said you can't actually test.

And not without reason. When the guy who knows the most about hammers and has the most reason to care about hammers isn't the guy who owns all the hammers, you know you're at stage 2 of a classic capitalist clusterfuck in the making.

Amerindian terrorist who murdered two FBI agents was just released from federal prison after his sentence was commuted by Biden.

Leonard Peltier leaves prison after Biden commuted his sentence in the killing of two FBI agents

This was long on the wish list of the far left. Clinton resisted. Obama resisted. Biden did not resist.
This exemplifies what was fundamentally wrong with the Biden presidency. He was too willing to roll over to the left wing of the Democratic Party.
And I think that this led us to Trump being reelected. We elected Biden to restore normalcy, not to push the Bernie/AOC agenda.

Yeah, the eighty year old man is a major threat the the nation.

An eighty year old man WILL be the major threat to what’s left of the Nation and the free world, in less than 16 months.

Not sure what RVonse means, BUT Google News gives priority to pay-walled sources like N.Y. Times and Washington Post. I assume that the monetary nature of those sites leads to better revenue for Google News.

And it is "liberal" newspapers that tend to be pay-walled. For right-wing sources with their false narratives, the viewing is an end in itself, not just a hope for ad or subscription revenue. Indoctrinating citizens is the right-wing path to financial success.

i got a letter from the Democrats wanting more money. i returned it with a big huge no on the request with a letter telling them no more money until they focus in healthcare, jobs, inflation--- things that worry and concern most Americans and not issues that 99.9 percent of the public simply doesnt care about.

There is no such thing as a liberal search engine. It's just reality has a strong liberal "bias". When you step out of your cult's echo chamber you think something is wrong because you don't find what they've been telling you.

You could make one. Rather like BaiDu is highly slanted towards what Beijing wants you to believe. When your spider crawls the web you note if the page appears to contain things they don't want you to know (if so, it's not indexed), links to sites they don't like (downrated, but not automatically banned as that would take out too much) or talks about sensitive topics (again, downrated.) But that involves a huge effort that is not in the economic interest of the company, it only happens because Beijing demands it.

Google does get demanded to not index an awful lot of "pirate" content (but nobody pays attention to the perjury aspect of false DMCA accusations, there are a lot of false positives.) But nobody demands they filter sites beyond that so they don't.

Simple test: Show me something that exists, is readable (Google isn't going to look inside images or videos), accessible (not behind some form of sign in, whether paid or not), isn't marked as not to be indexed, isn't something targeted by a DMCA complaint, and can't be found by a well constructed query.

It's not falsifiable but it is provable--show something that it should find but comes back with no hits or only obvious red-herring hits.

I've actually had it happen when the expected results would be explicit but there are no explicit keywords in the search.
