Dr. Robert Epstein: Google Will Shift 10% of Voters to Make Trump a ‘Blip in History’
Breitbart ^ | July 10, 2020 | LUCAS NOLAN

Posted on 07/10/2020 3:52:47 PM PDT by E. Pluribus Unum

Dr. Robert Epstein, the senior research psychologist at the American Institute for Behavioral Research and Technology, joined Breitbart News’ Editor-in-Chief Alex Marlow on Breitbart News Daily to discuss how Google hopes to shift 10 percent of the voting public away from Trump to fulfill a company executive’s stated goal of making populism nothing more than a “blip in history.”

Dr. Robert Epstein, the senior research psychologist at the American Institute for Behavioral Research and Technology, appeared on Breitbart News Daily alongside host and Breitbart News Editor-in-Chief Alex Marlow to discuss how Silicon Valley companies manipulate algorithm to suppress content.

Discussing Google’s efforts to suppress conservative content, Marlow states: “None of this is gonna come as a surprise to this audience but I don’t think a lot of people by and large understand exactly how much they can manipulate you, Google can, with just a slight tweak to search results or search suggestions or their algorithm… Everyone knows by the Breitbart leak of the Google TGIF meeting in 2016 right after the election that they said they wanted populism to be a blip in history, they wanted to basically use their power to make sure populism doesn’t have long term effects, what does that mean?… Since then Breitbart’s reach has wildly diminished within Google, this cannot be a coincidence.”

Dr. Epstein replied: “I doubt that it’s a coincidence because it’s so easy for them to suppress content of any sort. I published a big article on this in 2016 called The New Censorship, I focused on nine of Google’s blacklists, this is without ever seeing one and without the company admitting they had such things. But last year, Zach Vorhies left the company, quit the company and took with him 950 pages...

I despise them. But in my work, I am forced to use them and their product.

I hate absolutely EVERYTHING about those scumbags.

They better hurry up with their Juju.

I typed "Biden Dementia" into the Googler and the top result was:

Almost 40 PERCENT of Americans 'think Joe Biden has ...

Epstein's been feeding off of this notion for years but 10%?

I think he's pretty far out over his skis.

I liked the second result:

“Why Fox News thinks the ‘cognitive decline’ attack on Biden will work”

Based on this statement alone, why isn’t Goggle required to register as a Democrat PAC?

I highly respect Dr. Epstein for his years of research into Google. If anything can get Joe Biden elected it will be Google and other means of social media. Because our feckless leaders in Washington have failed to control these social media giants, our rights and freedoms are being eroded.

It is not a stretch to say that Google could very well overthrow the government. I added RobertEpstein as a keyword. I encourage everyone to click it and read more on what this guy has to say.

I gave up on looking up policy research through google. The algorithms definitely take you directly to liberal research. I stopped when I googled “arguments why torture actually does work”. It returned only topics related to why torture does NOT work.

That 10% number is spot on. See my tagline. I have links on my homepage that link back to prove that Google alone accounted for a 10% polling advantage in favor of Hillary back in 2016.

This cancel culture that has infected America? It’s very real. And social media giants like Google may very well cancel the conservative culture and put Joe Biden in office.

You have nothing of the sort.

You have a search link to Epstein that returns nothing, but if you're counting on his research you aren't within hailing distance of proof.

I switched to the Brave browser just this month.

I switched to Bing several years ago.

I still use Youtube, but I control the channels I wish to see.

Does anyone remember the old Google setting to ‘personalize’ search or to use ‘raw’ search results. I remember seeing that and thinking, “I don’t want my search results affected by anything I’ve done. I want the most relevant results regardless.”

Those days are gone.

TFA says “populism.” The headline switched to “Trump” because “Trump” gets more clicks than “populism.”
