  1. Could those nayers back the blue and vote against a bill due to its verbiage?
  2. My initial reasons for liking Trump. His success with quickly accomplishing what the government could not with the Wollman ice skating rink His real estate stories helped me have the confidence to buy a rental property 15 years ago The positivity I felt when he talked about America’s greatness His talk on bringing more manufacturing back to the USA He was an outsider that brought an optimism to drain the swamp But I did not vote for him in 2016. What I liked when he was president The economy flourished and my 401k soared Healthcare service cost transparency USA first. Better trade deals with and accountability from other countries. Also brought manufacturing back. Reduced troops over seas Low unemployment Responsibility with regulations Tougher on illegal immigration He increased awareness to fake news and corruption The battle between trying to run the country like a business owner and the the gov power checks and balances His ability to achieve results while big tech, the media, and left gov was against him How his presidency impacted me My 401k increased My home and rental property values increased My salary increased My tax deductions decreased I was able to price shop health care services Twitter became insufferable I stopped using google as a primary search engine I started consuming more news sources to address misinformation I began to wish that California would be allowed to secede My son began struggling with the foreign language immersion school during the pandemic and I switched him to normal school. How the pandemic was handled by both presidents has had negative impacts. The media destroyed my grandmas quality of life. The covid policy resulted in several of my favorite businesses closing for good, work attrition, and work layoffs. Now I have less buying power and raises/promotions are still frozen. Note: there is plenty not to like with Trump but above was my positives.

  7. I tried. At a glance, it says Musk is behaving similarly against the left as before against the right. The entirety of the article is one of the worst writing styles I've encountered. I'm not alone (writing style criticism). I've tried to answer your questions on even sensitive topics. Will you answer questions? Which of the 16 media storylines I shared earlier do you believe is true vs. a hoax? There is no trap; I believe they are all hoaxes that many on the left believe. I'm sure there are many hoaxes that I unknowingly believe. On behaviors... you ask Theo for evidence on media misinformation, and he provides it, and you provide no response. I actually want information and facts to expand my views. I don't want trolling and penis jokes that deflect from the harder concern :). Did you read the google censorship article the first or second time it was provided?
  8. Haha. I like 'gish gallop.' Denied facts are still facts.
  9. That is unreadable. I will assume it says something is bad and go with it. Transparency is the way to trust. https://sriramk.com/transparent-content-moderation https://blog.twitter.com/en_us/topics/company/2022/twitter-2-0-our-continued-commitment-to-the-public-conversation
  10. Wow. Listen to this Harvard democrat describe what occurred in 2016 and would occur in 2020. https://www.c-span.org/video/?c4941947/user-clip-big-tech-staggering-amount-power-ban-speech-destroy-rivals-shape-culture
  11. Harvard dude was a Hilary Clinton voter that studies behavior for a living and testified before the judiciary subcommittee. https://www.c-span.org/video/?c4814284/user-clip-testimony-dr-robert-epstein
  12. You'd think so given I own and have lost a bunch of money on weed stock.
  13. What were your thoughts on what that Democrat has already provided evidence for? https://www.judiciary.senate.gov/imo/media/doc/Epstein Testimony.pdf
  14. Bing has an alternative search suggestion from google that you can see right now. It's the word that the left used to describe Musk before he expressed his desire to vote republican for the first time in his life, buying Twitter and exposing government coordination from the Trump and (primarily) Biden campaigns.
  15. The writer may be laughable. For clarity, none of those auto-suggestions were on the writer's list either in 2019. He typed "Donald Trump is," and the browser auto-suggested completions. When I tried the same test in 2021, I found that google no longer reveals auto-suggestions for 'Donald Trump is', and the other browsers provided 'pleasant' scrubbed suggestions. You can try other combinations and find significant differences in auto-search suggestions and search results today. If it is showing what everybody typed in before, then you might acknowledge that across three engines in 2019 for "Joe Biden is," you see one positive as 'going to cure cancer.' The negative results are toast, too old to run, done, creepy, idiot, joke. Most of Trump's are negative too with the moron, idiot, joke plus some creativity with fat, antichrist, and illuminati confirmed. Unlike Biden, Trump's results had positives like my president and awesome. 'Going to win' could be a question or a statement, so that context of positive/negative is unknown.
  16. Google is programming what you think.
  17. Musk will be discredited in short order. It is the people's way. What will it accomplish?
  18. This is what is scary about big tech. It can influence what you search...
  19. The Wall Street Journal studied auto-complete features for Google, Duck Duck Go, and Bing in 2019. It was interesting. [https://www.wsj.com/articles/how-google-interferes-with-its-search-algorithms-and-changes-your-results-11573823753] Now Google refrains from showing auto-complete. Duck Duck Go, Bing and several others I tried are now scrubbed and consistent.
  20. Its a start. States win $400M lawsuit against Google for location tracking. https://www.michigan.gov/ag/news/press-releases/2022/11/14/40-attorneys-general-announce-historic-google-settlement-over-location-tracking-practices
  21. One of my kids is doing an assignment tonight on where things are from. She walked around the house and identified 20 items across 12 countries; not a single one was from the U.S.A.
  22. Recent examples Collusion != Obstruction Allows for != Calls for You have the wrong conclusion from Trump's statement. The media is doing it to undercut him. What's your reason?
