I have made contact on Facebook with an old bandmate from the 1970’s. Since I have been cancelled by the woke local newspaper for asking uncomfortable questions, I have been putting my thoughts into the electronic cloud of the internet for anyone to read. My bandmate is making me work harder than just going all-in with a bet because some may think I am just bluffing. I know how this person thinks because he thinks like me; he wants persuasive proof. He is challenging me to come across as a convincing salesman that that has the goods while the steets are filled with snake oil peddlars as far as the eye can see. Ok, I want to accept that challenge, but there are some big obstacles for a Flinstone brain in a space age forum even if I have those goods.
If I want to search the archives of recent history I cannot rely on Google Search. Google has become a government tool for controlling the minds of the contemporary public. It's like going to the library and discovering that you are late to the party-all the politically incorrect books have been burned. If I go there and ask a question, an answer to a different question is provided up front. An answer to the original question may or may not be there and if it is, it is in a dusty bin sequestered amid the clutter of woke politics piled high and deep. I have figured this out but how many have not? How many are naively using this medium to get "official" answers dealt to them from the bottom of the deck? My guess is, it’s standing room only.
Obviously, there is a problem with this. People are like water; they will follow the path of least resistance. Since I am a person approaching 80 I do not want to get in my car and drive to an authentic library to sit among the sweaty homeless and deal with the stress of tattooed crowding. I know the world is turning to shit and maybe I'm responsible for not doing something about it. I voted for the government target Trump, to try to get back home but it's not looking like an easy task to get this guy back in office.
Google is not an information oasis in the Death Valley of woke politics. The dead bodies lying by the well should be a clue to most. The government-issue truth many people are drinking is poison and that is a shame.
I'll keep trying.
