LEAKED AUDIO: Google Discusses ‘Steering’ the Conservative Movement
Breitbart ^ | 3/7/2019

Posted on 03/07/2019 6:33:28 AM PST by Altura Ct.

Google’s senior director of U.S. public policy, Adam Kovacevich appeared to describe the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) as a “sideshow Circus,” in a leaked audio recording in which he also argued that Google should remain a sponsor of the conference to “steer” the conservative movement “away from nationalistic and incendiary comments.”

The comments came to light in leaked audio files allegedly of a company-wide meeting at Google, part of which is now exclusively reported by Breitbart News. Another part of the transcript was released last Friday on Tucker Carlson Tonight, while further snippets revealing Google’s funding of establishment conservative think-tanks were published by the left-leaning tech magazine Wired in December.

The alleged meeting took place in the wake of Google’s sponsorship of CPAC in 2018, which triggered an internal rebellion from left-wing employees of the tech giant. Breitbart News exclusively reported on the revolt at the time, in which radical left-wingers inside Google accused CPAC of “ethno-nationalism” and “hate.”

I think very soon, the Federal Trade Commission and the Securities & Exchange Commission are going to ask really hard whether Google, Facebook and Twitter all violated US securities laws with their heavy-handed censorship of conservatives.


Remember the TEA Party? Unfortunately, the progressive corportist controlled GOP is just fine with censorship of grassroots conservatives. Don’t expect any help from the government on this one.

Do they have a Minster of Propaganda?

Do they watch videos on the hitler regime?

Because they WOULD slaughter TENS OF MILLIONS if they had the chance.

And they care nothing for the truth.

And, sadly, there is a LOT that goes through ‘oogle’ that we/I don’t even know about. Try to avoid the obvious when you can. Sort of like internet explorer. I never use it but everytime I do a computer clean up, there’s stuff there.

De-Google your life people. Is Google still your default search engine? Fix that.

There are probably sane people in Google who understand this. Their situation is a lot like faithful priests and lay leaders wondering what to do about the Catholic hierarchy.

I think that's a good analogy.

The irony of these Breitbart "leaks" of internal Google discussions is that Google comes off looking pretty good.

Sure, some engineer will vent against the right but inevitably management steers things back on track and they end up doing the right thing.

IMO, the conservative movement doesn’t have to be steered, it’s already fractured and non-threatening.

INFECTED

Google is infected.

Google, the largest search engine, knowingly deceives people away from liberty. How could your company ever promote using their products? Do you not want free and fair results?

Google is evil.

Chrome is evil.

Big Tech Infection: all of those gadgets you see at Walmart, the computers, the tablets, the dumbphones,
ALL are INFECTED! Right off the shelf, your product is bought infected and defective. Wake up.

Your communication device cannot seek or find jack squat, only fake and rigged trash.

Finally proof that the Uber Left is actively infiltrating Conservative groups to either damage them or drag them left.

Yeah, they're sneakily buying sponsorships for CPAC so they can get their name prominently displayed at the conference and on CPAC's promotional material.

Crafty bastards.

I agree except I am having issues with DD go as of late causing me to try other stuff comparable. DD go has served me well for many years now but lately they are throwing two pages of unrelated ad promotions on top of any real substantial related results. A few is one thing... A whole page or two is too many. Trying startpage but also finding some result manipulation with it too. Not sure where to go from here, still shopping...

I use duckduck mostly but other things still probably get routed through places I’d prefer they not. I’m not a computer geek/wizard so I don’t know where all the “1’s” and “0’s” end up. Even if I did, could I disrupt them?

“Show me any conservative that is attempting to “steer” democrats.”

Show me any lefties who would be stupid enough to take our money and submit to the yoke. Only the pubbies are that dumb.
