Google Redefines The Word ‘Fascism’ To Smear Conservatives, Protect Liberal Rioters

Not sure if anyone else saw this, but this is devious as hell, imo. They conveniently left out the severe economic and social control, and added the term "right-wing." I don't see how this can't be viewed as thought manipulation if they're making up their own definitions now.

Just went and checked it out. I also saw that you can provide feedback on the definition, including marking it as incorrect, and provide comments as to why.

Could it be that the definition changed because of feedback from the left? Either way I provided feedback, including the correct definition and would encourage others to do the same

Use Bing or DuckDuckGo. Make an email using a third party -- preferably a more secure third party like ProtonMail.

Bing.

Hey man, Bing actually remembered to show respect for D-Day on June 6th. Google didn't.

I'm not here to argue their morales.

Maybe we can load up the Studebaker and cruise on down to the old waterin' hole for an ice cold sarsaparilla!

That's the google definition, not the webster definition -- which is defined as:

1. 1often capitalized : a political philosophy, movement, or regime (as that of the Fascisti) that exalts nation and often race above the individual and that stands for a centralized autocratic government headed by a dictatorial leader, severe economic and social regimentation, and forcible suppression of opposition
   
   
2. 2: a tendency toward or actual exercise of strong autocratic or dictatorial control <early instances of army fascism and brutality — J. W. Aldridge>

Wow, this kind of bullshit actually pushes more people to the right, lol. Why don't they understand this? Actually, I'm glad they don't. It's just super annoying.
