Google, the behemoth search engine, has been caught red-handed tipping the political scales in favor of Democrats since as far back as 2008, according to a report by the Media Research Center. This revelation should come as no surprise to those who have been paying attention to the biased antics of big tech companies towards conservative candidates and causes.
Google, Boosting Democrat Candidates and Censoring Republicans Since 2008https://t.co/iMhB2YYxSd

From endorsing a young Senator Obama over Senator Clinton in 2008 to attempting to push Hillary Clinton to victory in 2016, Google has consistently shown its left-leaning bias. The shocking victory of Donald Trump in 2016 was a clear indication that Google’s interference, while significant, was not enough to sway the election in favor of their preferred candidate. This meddling continued into the 2020 election, where Google was accused of favoring certain candidates and censoring others.
The fact that Google, a private company, wields such immense power over information access on the internet is deeply concerning. Their near-monopoly on search engine services means that their bias can potentially influence millions of voters, shifting the outcome of elections. While alternatives like DuckDuckGo exist, the majority of users stick with Google, oblivious to the bias that shapes the results they see.
Individuals who are tired of being fed information through a left-leaning filter have the power to make a change. By upgrading to a VIP account on platforms that offer uncensored news and opinions, like RedState and its sister sites, individuals can bypass the biased algorithms of big tech companies. This allows them to access a more balanced and varied range of perspectives, empowering them to make informed decisions both in their news consumption and at the ballot box.
The exposure of Google’s election interference serves as a stark reminder of the importance of transparency and accountability in the digital age. People deserve to know when their access to information is being manipulated for political gain. By shedding light on these practices, reports like the one from the Media Research Center help to arm the public with the knowledge they need to navigate the digital landscape with discernment and critical thinking.
