I’ve noticed it too. Very biased results.
The “best” search engine I’ve found is Kagi (kagi.com). They give you 100 free searches, then you have to pay. $60 a year for 300 searches a month. Pricey, I know. Nevertheless, on the flip side, they give pretty straight-forward, relatively unbiased results, especially for conservative topics. Worth looking into.
In 2nd place is Brave (search.brave.com).

Yandex. The Russian search engine. Compare one liar against another.

Yes, it’s changed.
Google was amazing when it first started.
Hundreds of pages of results.
A lot of dross, but nuggets of gold found pages down in the results.
Now it is all manipulated, or curated, or censored, whatever one wants to call it.

Try Luxxle search engine... It does deep searches and you can narrow searches with the built in tools. It doesn’t track or keep your info either.

Free Republic itself is also a tool. The issue is that it needs someone to generate a key search word for the post. I try to think of something that I will remember when I’ve posted something I want to refer to later on on. For example there is a great political ad with the Devil went to Georgia as the background music so I added DevilGeorgia as a keyword to find that video in a Free Republic search.

Look for any topic that is remotely political on:
Google
Bing
Yahoo
Duck Duck Go
Now do the same search on Yandex. Prepare to be amazed.

Yandex is joint Dutch and Russian.
The key is that the blob doesn’t control it. The difference in search results for articles, etc is really eye opening.

Ok maybe it is just me and I am imagining things. Anyone who has been running searches on the internet for the last 20 years or so has probably noticed how difficult it has gotten to get concise and accurate results. Even boolean operators are no help. Lately I have noticed another thing. Every time I search for a news article almost all the returns I get are for links to a mainstream media article. Little or nothing from alternative sources. Yes, the algorithm now favors the most popular and PC searches, as if insisting that is what you should want and read, and overall favors brevity (today's smartphones, attention span) over substantiation.
Google no longer indexes my site, save for a few, despite trying new sitemaps, robt text, and improving mobile friendly and passing texts, though it is not designed for that.
