We need a search engine which prioritizes conservative news sources and demotes others.
Invent it, and get rich.
I like it quite well. YMMV
I’m going to respectfully suggest that you learn how to search in browsers. Your search result was 100% correct.
See below for enlightenment and a path to a new universe:

Did you answer the challenge and then DuckDuckGo blocked you anyway?
Actually not. SunkenCiv was kind enough to send me a link that I was passing on to my New Zealand prof partner thinking it might interest him, but I wanted to add some links to the poet’s actual poetry. My prof bestie is one of the world experts on Shakespeare, and I pass him all the weird stuff I find.
When we were working together, he was good enough to help me attempt to build my dream black box - you put in a poem and out pops the answer to whether it’s by Henry Livingston or not. Absolutely ADORE the man! (the prof, though Henry, too)

What are you upset by or objecting to?
I know Vendome IRL, he can't help but fail in any attempt to prove he's human.
Bkmk
Did you ever see the silent movie classic, The Beloved Rogue? John Barrymore plays Francois Villon.
Try Presearch, it has the same or better privacy features.
No - will look for it. Thanks. All I can remember without looking at his poetry is crows eating the eyes of dead men.
I stopped using it a while ago. Brave is my default, but I added Luxxle as the search engine in Firefox when I need to use it.
I’ve noticed DDG’s top results getting more and more “managed” in the last few months. I’m using it less and SearX (or the Whatfinger fork of Searx) or Mojeek or Presearch more and more.
“All search engines give you a pile of propaganda these days”
DDG’s brag was they were using Google’s algorithms without the trackers. Is there any search engine that is unbiased?
I like it. I love the summary atop the results — at least 50% of the time it gives me what I was looking for.
Pretty sure Vendome is human, LOL.
IIRC, Vendome came to a freep with the DC Chapter some years ago when the anti-war freaks were going to mess with the Lincoln Memorial. So many veterans and vet freepers came out and stood with us to protect the monuments.
btw, I can recommend Startpage.com as a great privacy-oriented search engine.
Yes, but can he prove it?
Turned out that when he wrecked his shoulder I had occasion to drive him to a follow-up appointment.
He didn't give me the destination, but turn here, turn here instructions. As we got nearer I realized where he was going and asked, "Are we going to Dr. Butcher's office?"
We were.
"Is his receptionist still named Dethrow?"
She was.
Turned out we had the same orthopedist...

OMG That is hilarious!
LOL
I just tried 3 different searches. It works like it always has. Don’t know what you’re talking about.
