Mitch McConnell Gives Google a “Secret Weapon” On His Way Out the Door
Revolver News ^ | March 4, 2024 | Revolver

Mitch McConnell might be on his way out, but he has one last parting gift for the American public up his sleeve.

McConnell is supporting Melissa Holyoak, a Joe Biden nominee for the Federal Trade Commissioner. It should come as no surprise that Holyoak is a consummate RINO that would be a key ally for Google on the FTC, one of our nation’s most important regulatory bodies.

Indeed, the FTC is responsible for protecting consumers against fraudulent and deceptive practices, as well as the enforcement of anti-trust laws—two areas of immense concern for woke tech behemoth Google.

It may come as a surprise to some that Google’s stated mission was once “to organize the world’s information and make it universally accessible and useful.”

In recent years, it appears that Google has entirely subordinated that noble mission to embracing the most ridiculous forms of woke propaganda imaginable. Just weeks ago, Google beclouded itself with an AI product so woke that one would be forgiven for thinking it was designed as satire. The Gemini program, for instance, stipulated that it would be preferable to allow the universe to be destroyed than to “misgender” Caitlyn Jenner. Most laughably, Gemini was apparently programmed to allow clumsy DEI to supersede even the most basic tenets of historical accuracy, leading to depictions of black Founding Fathers and black Nazi officers alike!

The New York Post:

Google’s highly-touted AI chatbot Gemini was blasted as “woke” after its image generator spit out factually or historically inaccurate pictures — including a woman as pope, black Vikings, female NHL players and “diverse” versions of America’s Founding Fathers.

Yeah, Mitch will still do a ton of damage on before he is out.

All anyone needs to know about Mister McConnell...

In 1967, during the Vietnam war, he (quite apparently) flim-flammed his way out of the Army Reserves (diagnosed w optic neuritis, however he had somehow, miraculously managed to finish law school).

Those of us in uniform at the time knew we had to honor an obligation. For Mister McConnell, the concepts of duty, honor, country and also that of courage did not stand in his way.

Mitch’s secret weapon is his wife’s money.

Google’s goal is to make information universally accessible? Not if it contradicts their dogmas, as anyone trying to search certain keywords over the years has noticed.

They want to replace search engines with AI Chatbots so all information is filtered through the narrative they train it on.

What search engines are least biased? Microsoft uses Bing and I don’t trust Microsoft. I’ve been using Duck Duck Go. I don’t know if it is affiliated with a larger company.

Personally I prefer Presearch even more than DuckDuckGo (same privacy features with much more power/options under the hood). I don’t know the fine details of its search engine, but it comes from the crypto space where people have a strong anti-censorship mentality so I’d be surprised if they shared the problems of the Google/Microsoft/etc set.
