Except you’ve done no such thing.

So its OK for you to call me a liar? Funny… the rules here seem to change frequently.

@Call_me_Ishmael

So another post calling me a liar.

Really really strange. Libs here get all offended with such personal attacks.

Talking about the so called “personal attacks” because someone doesn’t agree with your point.

@CanadianJudo

who cares.

…until it works against them?

@Cynic

Well that is a big nothing-burger, try again. It clearly states Google has never manipulated its search results .

You can use any search engine you want if you are still concerned.

If they did, is it wrong? Should there be laws against it?

You are welcome to do that.

Use Bing if you don’t like Google’s search results.

It’s a whole new arena that should have some standardized rules of fairness that apply to all equally.

Apparently the liberals in this forum who were pontificating about how stupid Trumpettes didn’t understand that search algorithms were totally neutral as if they had been handed down by God.

right. and this vindicates claims made often in this forum about how the searches were biased.

[Keyser_Soze]

Talk about small government conservatism!

Moar regulations!

[Keyser_Soze]

Can you provide some examples?

[thinkingman]

@Keyser_Soze

Can you provide some examples?

search results for trump, GOP are overwhelmingly negative. try it

[Keyser_Soze]

Perhaps it is the GOP’s bad policies that are the source of your concern?

Or their general ineptness to lead?

Trump’s Base Has Become Too Delusional For the GOP’s Own Good

Why?

This is the crazy thing about the CEC anti intellectual contagion… free market is the greatest unless they feel that they are the ones getting the short end of the stick. There doesn’t have to be any proof… just the feeling.

If someone of a liberal persuasion makes that argument about say maybe the tax code or the regulatory structure… they are painted as anti free market socialist scum.

At least have some consistency.

Maybe it is because the administration and the party are face planting at every single turn.

Maybe it is after years of saying that the government sucks they get into power and prove the case.

Every law is due to an ass and there’s plenty of them.

[FreeAndClear]

That’s because the negative content is popular.

I have a problem with google doing what is described in the op on a personal level but they “promote” content all the time based on machine learning and ads. You guys just don’t like the result

[FreeAndClear]

You lost your conservative card. It’s that simole

[Smyrna]

@Jezcoe

There doesn’t have to be any proof… just the feeling.

So you agree that Kavanaugh is being railroaded by libs?

[thinkingman]

google staffers discussed manipulating the results

because they are biased

thats all you need to know

anything else is pure spin

I think that Ford is credible.

The allegations can never be proven and Kavenaugh will be confirmed as judge.

I think that it will ultimately backfire on the GOP to seem like they are moving this through as fast as they can.
