Google censors stuff, X(Elon) censors stuff…all media is partisan now…just the way it is
Re: Trump 2024
Twitter literally warns you if you write any post that says "cis" or "cisgender" and he doesn't give a fart, but Google might not autocomplete DonDon's near miss and he flips his lid.
I just tried to search for it and it is true that it doesn't autocomplete. The results do show up when you actually search. I don't know why that is. The autocomplete results for other topics are sometimes odd or incomplete. My guess is that this is just some random algorithmic quirk, or a timed delay that will resolve itself after N days, or a bug, or something like that. Google doesn't want to randomly hide info about a major news story like this. They have no need to try to hide such information which is widely known and available, and they don't want to piss off conservative users; they want everybody using their product.
Another possibility is that they may reduce autocomplete about "violent" results involving living persons. Like if you try to search for "kill Barack Obama" or something like that, maybe they reduce the results so as to not help violent people learn more about how to do violent things. But I have no evidence for that, just trying to provide some possible reasons.
My wife and I have both worked in tech for years, and there are often really silly reasons things do or don't appear in search results. Like random musicians will insist that they NOT appear in Apple Music search results, or random word patterns will strip out of Google because in some language they mean a profanity, or whatever. Lot of complexity and hidden behavior in these huge applications.

You pass along AI bullshit from Musk with fake shit Harris says. You share stupid auto complete nonsense, as if it's going to change or disrupt people's opinions or something. You toss bullshit our way all of the time to the point that you discredit yourself so much that you become a zero value poster in politics. It's become so bad that even when you make a great point, it's obfuscated by the nonsense.
The point of pointing it out, is that google is employing censorship and/or trying their best to change the past. It's just another example of this. Just like the media was trying to say that Harris was never the "border czar" and hiding and gaslighting everyone on her record.

I'll be angry and the more nonsense you spread, you can expect anger in kind. Don't act like you're some sort of passive and kind person. You align with a man and party that doesn't care about the thing I hold dear to my heart. I can't respect people that have such a tilted world view.

I'm not going to simply be welcoming to ignorance and a former politician that treats his opposition like a high school bully would act, name calling, intentionally saying names wrong, calling people names and acting like a true POS human towards many.
You're cool with it. That's says a ton.
I think I'll take a break from this forum indefefinitely before your anger goes to another level that noone wants to see. I wish nothing but the best for you and your daughter, truly.

Re: Trump 2024
The problem here is that you're ok with the GOP stance which you seem to just play dumb about when things arise instead focusing your time on posting nonsense about Democrats. I don't know why you put the blinders on.

Re: Trump 2024
If you want me to be passive about unsourced nonsense and AI generated fake content, sexist and racist attacks shared on Twitter by Musk, Trump or otherwise and complete misinformation being shared in these forums, it's not going to happen. I'll refrain from the profanity but I will not refrain frim calling you or anyone else out for unsourced, unfounded or outright lies. I have a young family and their future, the future of marginalized people and the future of our environment are near and dear to my heart.In2ition wrote: ↑Sun Jul 28, 2024 4:09 pmYour anger is misdirected towards me and completely inappropriate here.

Re: Trump 2024
I'll refrain from strong emotions, In2. I just want you to know that I don't appreciate it when we bring up points and you simply reply that you haven't read about it, haven't heard about it, or haven't done any due diligence when asked about things. These are important issues to many of us. When you feign ignorance, it feels like you intentionally choose not to take a critical view of Trump. Several of us from Cap, myself, TOO, etc., have shared alarming quotes and dangerous misinformation, hoping to engage the other side of the aisle, as it is a Democrat-leaning majority on the Politics thread, and it goes nowhere, feeling like an echo chamber. It ends up feeling like you aren't even willing to take a critical stance at any point when it comes to Trump, as it quickly pivots towards a conspiracy regarding Democrats, Biden (who I will repeat is far from someone I am a big fan of, even before his debate blunders showed how far he's declined), or Harris.
If you can't bother to listen to the things being shared, what's the point? If direct quotes, videos, audio, etc., from Trump are being shared and you choose to play the card of "I don't know enough to comment" and never bother to return to any of the things being brought up, it feels like blind support of Trump. I'm better off having these talks with my dad, who will at least address and look into the things I share, regardless of his over-the-top MAGA views.
When you share reckless tweets from Musk, or AI-generated content with things Harris has never said, it's irresponsible. You don't see any of us sharing a bunch of AI-generated fake audio or video from Trump. It discredits having a real conversation or debate with you. It falls into the same dangerous trap that misleads Americans in a dangerous direction, regardless of whether someone at some point during the chain of the content you share said it was a parody or joke. You don't provide that disclosure, and it makes no sense why you think anyone here would be positively receptive to any of it. It feels like a way to try to push our buttons and get us upset.
Also, for the record, I absolutely love your takes on all things Suns and otherwise. I'm not sure of your political background or personal reasons that caused you to align so closely with Trump (or so opposed to Democrats). But alas, here we are. Again, I'll avoid the profanity and straight up anger towards you. I don't want to push you away. I had serious dust ups with Swing and was hit hard when I heard he passed.

Re: Trump 2024
I hadn’t actually seen the clip yet…yikes:
From a Christian perspective, he sounds to me like the devil is speaking through him. I know there are a few other Christians on here, let me know if you agree.
It sounds so much worse than the transcript looked…very scary. I don’t see how anyone could possibly say that there was any joke involved.
And yet American evangelicals just get swept right up into the cult and go along with all of it. Terrifying.

Re: Trump 2024
Thanks for the recent messages about calming things down on here. I know how important this stuff is, and how heated it can get when we talk about it and bring wildly different views with us. Some of the messages here recently crossed over the line into being personal attacks along with some colorful language. I think if you get fired up enough that you feel the need to speak to another person here that way, go take a break and come back before writing your next post. Or if you find you can't interact with a given poster without it becoming so heated, there's always the Mute feature. Despite our various zany political views or odd ways of defending them, we're all real people here, and we should find a way to treat each other with a minimum baseline of respect and kindness even if we're having an exchange about important topics. Thanks.
Re: Trump 2024
So there's a theory that the assassination attempt on Trump was a government plot? Presumably orchestrated by Biden and other evil Democrats? Such a thing would be reprehensible, but wouldn't Biden just have immunity for it, as the Supreme Court has just ruled?

Re: Trump 2024
Yeah. Not sure why I got so heated. It's not like we're going to change anyone's vote on here. We might as well be willing to share the stuff that is part of our day-to-day political stance. This isn't the place that we're sharing these things with some sort of larger external audience, potentially spreading misinformation or anything else to anyone on the fence or impressionable.

Re: Trump 2024
I really try to look at these threads as, what if my dear friend or family member, who I know is a very kind and nice and good person, said or thought this stuff? If they loved Trump or defended xyz thing that I don't agree with? I'd think they were wrong, but I wouldn't bite their head off or stop talking to them. I would want to learn and understand more about why this person I care about came to such a different conclusion than I did. It's such a useful tool to just hear people explaining their reasoning. Even if they're being wrong on the internet!
