Top Google Image Searches for Scott Adams Turn Him Into a Nazi
Newsbusters ^ | December 15, 2018 | P.J. Gladnick

Posted on 12/15/2018 11:08:52 AM PST by PJ-Comix

Imagine looking at the Google Images search engine results for yourself and see that among the first ten images to pop up is you dressed as a Nazi, even though you never wore such garb. You might know how Dilbert creator Scott Adams felt when he saw such photoshopped images of himself appear as images #4 and #7 (as of this writing) in Google Images

The normally mild mannered Adams was understandably quite upset over this in his Thursday Periscope and YouTube video especially since the images were linked to a fake Twitter account that has already been taken down as well as to a website that can no longer be found. So how did the Google algorithms work to feature those two images so prominently? Adams suspects that it was political animus against him, not algorithms, that caused the prominence of the offensive pictures in Google Images.

When did Adams get so whiny? Blaming Google for these image search results is about as lame as it gets.

Sure. Google just plays it straight, right? The search results returned all depends on the number of people viewing a particular image, right?

Nevermind that Adams said that the images were on a Twitter account that had very little traffic.

Scott is guilty of not liking Hillary: For that he is tarred as a nazi. Very instructive.

Scott went after Brennen too. He's the more likely enforcer.

So triple bracketing is a dog whistle, who knew. Wow, what is double bracketing?

I realize this isn't going to mean much to you considering your opinion of Jews, but bracketing "the left," "the communists," "the bolsheviks," is indeed a tactic of Jew-haters. They are saying all these unsavory groups are really fronts for the Jews.

Too bad you didn't grow up in the Bible Belt, Rash. You'd have known more about Joshua and Mephibosheth and Gideon than you know now about any one of your medieval saints.

He made clear that if it’s not resolved in a week, Google is in for real hurt.
Remember, this is a man with “f* you money”.

Yeah, sort of my point... When it’s HIM or HIS step son, it’s “Katy bar the door!”

When it’s any of us or a lesser-celebrity, it’s “everybody calm down. There are two sides to every story, etc...” He’s slowly coming into the camp of moderate conservatives who are just liberals that got mugged. Don’t get me wrong, I’m glad to see him catch on..

Take a moment and read Bigly. Scott actually lives in reality and is an amazing observer.

Technically they aren’t depicting anything. Just bringing results from the web. As for the original artists he’s a public figure and therefore open to ridicule and satire.

He doesn’t have a case. And compared to Google he’s a pauper.

No, but they’re not based on some gnome in Google’s basement inserting particular images, either.

There are many well known ways to influence what shows up on Google searches and please believe me that is he left knows all of them.

Actually it is an anti semetic thing:
https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=%28%28%28%29%29%29
Commonly found on Twitter or other social networks, ((())), aka triple parentheses, are placed around the name of a Jew, person with Jewish ancestry, or any Jew-related entity and is often used in a derogatory manner: (((CNN))), (((Facebook))).
It was originally used by far right-wing bloggers “The Right Stuff” who explained that it was used to symbolized how Jews’ names have *echoed* throughout history; also stating that Jews have facilitated multiculturalism and mass immigration in “white nations”.

If that’s not how you meant it you are now aware.

I have nothing against Jews in spite of your implying I do.

Christian Zionists outnumber Jewish Zionists a hundred fold in this world. So, as usual, you begin by misstating my opinion and in reality don't actually care what my opinion is.

For the record, I know Jews I like and speak with regularly, I know Jews I wouldn't spit on if they were on fire. The same is true of all the other categories of human beings people like to single out for special praise or derision.

Interesting the assumptions you operate from since you know nothing about where I grew up, what sort of religious teaching I received from my family, which Biblical characters I know about, how to find your own anal orifice even with a strip map hung from the back of your belt down to your shoes, and all the other things you periodically leap out of the murky swamp waters you dwell in to snap at.

Have a nice day and Merry CHRIST mas!!!!

Unbelievable.

Not ONE other poster is aware of the parody account Scott had with the name “NPC_DALE” (or maybe it was NPCDale).

IN ANY CASE “NPC_Dale” (i.e., Scott) posed with a swastika arm band on that twitter account.

Unbelievable that no one else *knows* this factoid.

I use DuckDuckGo - not sure how the different engines might differ when one searches for pics of someone/something...

Well that makes you a no good shit. And an antisemite. Because now you KNOW what it means and you’re still doing it. so now that we all know you are a waste of flesh and beneath contempt goodbye.

Obviously you can't count.

That's five brackets and eight brackets.

Five brackets means "laughing my ass off at a dumb SOB", and eight brackets identifies the "dumb SOB obeying nazi bastard rules".

You've exposed by yourself inability to count and your slavish obedience to your anti-semetic nazi-boy masters.

have a lovely day

Sure.
Ignore a pattern that has repeated all through recorded history.
What could possibly go wrong.

Goood! You keep to yourself, which you hadn't.

Rule #1: do.not.annoy.the.goys....
It never has ended well. Never will

And, do not push photoshop pictures of Scott Adams sporting National Socialist uniforms to the top of search results.
Morons.
