Evil big tech: Google shifted a 'minimum" of six million votes in 2020 election

[Anonymous]

Google shifted a "bare minimum" of six million votes in the Nov. 3 presidential election by pushing its political agenda onto its users, a research psychologist has claimed.



In an interview with Fox News' "Tucker Carlson Tonight," Dr. Robert Epstein, a senior research psychologist at the American Institute for Behavioral Research and Technology in California, suggested that the big tech company's search manipulation could have prompted millions of Americans to shift their votes toward Democrats.



"Google search results were strongly biased in favor of liberals and Democrats. This was not true on Bing or Yahoo," Epstein said, referring to a team he put together to monitor the activities of big tech companies in the run up to the 2020 election.



The project team recruited "a diverse group of 733 registered voters, Republicans, Democrats, and Independents," from "three very critical battleground states: Arizona, Florida, and North Carolina," who were then equipped with special software that tracked their activity on the internet, such as searches on Google, Bing, and Yahoo.



"We also found what seems to be a smoking gun," Epstein continued. "That is, we found a period of days when the vote reminder on Google's homepage was being sent only to liberals—not one of our conservative field agents received a vote reminder during those days."



He said that when he went public with his research on Oct. 29, Google "backed off."



They literally shut off that manipulation that night, and so for four days before the election they were showing vote reminders to everyone, finally," he continued.



"The bottom line at the moment is that these manipulations, the ones that we've so far quantified, could easily have shifted at least 6 million votes in just one direction," Epstein added. "That's the bare minimum at this point, that I'm confident. The maximum we haven't even begun to estimate that yet because we have so much data to look at."



Google, the world's largest internet company with some 100,000 employees and more than $130 billion in annual revenue, has long been accused of channeling the politics of its mostly left-leaning workforce into its products, which the company has repeatedly denied.

Democracy was not meant for the age of big tech/social media.

Andrew Cuomo's charge that Trump has done "nothing" to fight COVID—a charge echoed repeatedly by the media—is both factually wrong and mean spirited. Operation Warp Speed, Trump's mobilization of a private/public sector partnered response has been a masterstroke.

Stifled Debate: The press and social media companies became enforcers of COVID orthodoxy, suppressing heterodox ideas and stifling debate. The Great Barrington Declaration—in which notable scientists argued against lockdowns and school closings—is a classic case in point in which legitimate viewpoints were underreported and ill considered. Suppressing dissent doesn't end conflict, it exacerbates it.



Enforcement Hypocrisy: "Socially distance!" public health officials told us. "Don't gather in large crowds! Shelter in place." To which I respond, "Practice what you preach."



After California Governor Gavin Newsom instructed Californians not to gather in large numbers for Thanksgiving—and even to wear masks between bites of food! —he was caught dining with more than ten other people, indoors, and not wearing a mask. Oops.



The hypocrites' list goes on and on. When thousands of motorcyclists gathered for the annual Sturgis, South Dakota rally, the media and public officials tut-tutted that the gathering could become a super-spreader event. But when huge racial justice demonstrations broke out, many of these same public health officials and pundits applauded.



So, what would a great COVID repentance look like?



Our leaders should trust the American people. Transparency should be increased. Debate should be encouraged. Costs and benefits of various approaches honestly presented. Most of us will do the right thing.

Mandates should be avoided unless predicated by clear and present need, backed by scientific certainty.

Trump should be thanked for his anti-COVID efforts, particularly Operation Warp Speed.

If Joe Biden becomes president, his strategy going forward should be scrutinized fairly by conservative press and without sycophancy by liberal media.
