Google ‘American inventors’ or ‘American scientists’.

What a fkn joke. Google has really become a POS - sunk so far so fast. Not just politically, but functionally as well.

At one time, if you Googled a news topic, you got all kinds of perspectives, including mainstream. Now it's all establishment, fake-news and left-wing rags that are going out off business..because they suck.

Also, when I would Google a band, organization or a person, the first listing would be the website for that band, organization or website. Nowadays, I get whatever Google wants me to see, ads or a bunch of other BS - but not the website unless I scroll.

DC is set for a snowstorm shutdown tomorrow so they probably will work in PR for awhile.

The goofu author (?) of this musical, was on TV ysterday to punlicize the rap show, and the commentator was saying he and his parents were “immigrants.” They come from Puerto Rico, AFAIK.

Its like having a Broadway show about civil rights and a white actor is playing martin Luther king. They can get away with this because its a fantasy which they believe is the truth

They should stay there.

Oh no, they might all flock to one side of Puerto Rico and then capsize the island! So long as it took all the dummocraps with it, I'd be fine with that.
