How Google and Wikipedia Brainwash You
Off Guardian ^ | 07/12/2021 | Ryan Matters

According to research done by We Are Social, the average internet user spends over 6 and half hours online every day.

The internet is both a blessing as a curse. On the one hand, it gives us access to knowledge and technology that improves our lives, but on the other hand, it’s an addictive and dangerous mind-control tool that can be exploited to influence your choices and manipulate your thinking.

The COVID pseudopandemic has seen internet censorship rise to an unprecedented level. The controllers and their minions are scrambling to silence anyone who dares to question the efficacy of vaccines or the existence of Sars-Cov-2.

Let’s recap: In the space of a few months, thousands of YouTube channels and millions of Facebook posts have been deleted. The former president of the United States’ Twitter account was removed, and, Greenmedinfo, a site that aggregates research on natural remedies, had both their Facebook and Instagram accounts deleted losing over half a million followers.

I use neither googggblech nor Wikipedia. It has been demonstrated years ago, that wiki can and has been tampered, tailored, tweeked, and re-written to suit the tweaker.

I remember YouTube before Google bought it. It was a much freer place.
I remember Ebay before Google made a mess of it.
I remember the early 90’s first generation Internet/darpanet, before Google arose.

I will rejoice the day some unseen calamity befalls the grounds and structures of Google, and no federal monies to follow.

One reknowned tweeker was O. J. Simpson, who would “set the record right” every day!

If folks don’t know how they brainwash you then they’re already brainwashed.

I use DuckDuckGo for browsing but still use Wikipedia, but for nothing serious.

Wikipedia is useful for non-serious stuff, like rock band discographies, trivia about movies and statistics like how you used to find in the "World Book of Facts" - that used to be sort of a bible for geeks like me growing up in the pre-Internet 1970s.

But would never trust them for anything serious.

I use Wiki, but only to do a quick fact lookup and never on any subject with any political implications.

I can usually force Google to give me a link to what I want. Certainly not for "news."

They mention Wuhan <<<<

this is where logic doesn't work.....there are 100s of thousands of wet markets in China.....

to even think that the lab in Wuhan that was studying bat virus was the cause of the Wuhan Flu defies the laws of wet market mathmatics ........./s

When you say brainwash is that a code word for enema?

"BS. I use many sources including those and I apply my own good brain."

The problem is not so much google or Wikipedia. The problem is out schools and society at large no longer encourage critical thinking.
