Google’s Secret Manipulation: Research Psychologist Exposes Biased Algorithms and Election Influence

 

In a stunning revelation, Dr. Robert Epstein, a research psychologist, has drawn attention to Google's concerning manipulation of newsfeeds, search results, and YouTube suggestions. While Twitter and Facebook have often faced scrutiny for their censorship and biases, Google, the most egregious offender among the Big Tech giants, has managed to escape the spotlight. However, it appears that the tech giant has now set its sights on a particularly vulnerable demographic – our children.

Dr. Epstein, a Californian Democrat holding a Ph.D. from Harvard, has spent the past decade closely monitoring Google's actions. During his recent visit to New York, where he sought funds for his ongoing project, he shared his latest research with The Post, shedding light on Google's ability to shape public opinion and influence elections to align with its liberal corporate worldview.

Epstein's research demonstrates that Google possesses the capability to sway minds and even alter election outcomes. In the 2020 election alone, he estimates that Google manipulated search results to shift approximately 6 million votes in favor of Joe Biden. By utilizing biased algorithms, Google skewed search results to present positive links for Biden and negative links for Trump. Additionally, the tech giant leveraged its homepage to promote Get Out The Vote messages primarily targeted at Democrat voters.

Preliminary findings from Epstein's current project, which focuses on how Google's extensive psychological operations (psy-ops) impact children through YouTube and other products, reveal an even more pervasive liberal bias. For adult users, YouTube's "Up Next" video suggestions exhibited a liberal bias 76% of the time. Shockingly, this figure skyrocketed to 96% when considering videos recommended to children and teenagers.

Epstein highlights the aggressive nature of Google's targeting of children, stating, "Because they think they're gods. And no one has ever taken them to task, ever." Although he has not personally evaluated the specific content of the suggested videos, he employed rankings from nonpartisan organizations to assign liberal, conservative, or centrist labels to the sources.

The issue lies in the transient nature of Google's search results and YouTube suggestions. Once a user clicks on a link, the results or suggestions vanish, making it nearly impossible to catch Google in the act. However, Epstein has developed a method to capture this ephemeral data. Through a panel of registered voters and children, he monitors and records their Google interactions, akin to how Nielsen monitors TV ratings. With plans to expand his panel to over 25,000 field agents of varying ages and political affiliations, Epstein aims to expose Google's actions through a public dashboard called americasdigitalshield.org, scheduled to go live later this year, just in time for the 2024 election.

The dashboard will provide real-time data collected from field agents across the country, tracking bias on Google, YouTube, Facebook, and Bing. It will also estimate the number of votes that could be influenced based on the level of bias detected. Epstein suggests that moderate Republicans are the most vulnerable to having their minds swayed.

While Google has repeatedly denied any manipulation or bias in its products, questions have been raised about the company's motives and leanings. In 2016, employees of Google, YouTube, and Alphabet's subsidiaries donated 94% of their political contributions to Democrats. Furthermore, Eric Schmidt, Google's former CEO, played a significant role in Hillary Clinton's campaign. A leaked video also featured Google executives expressing dismay over Trump's victory and a desire to influence future elections.

Leaked emails have revealed Google's involvement in get-out-the-vote efforts and discussions on manipulating search functions to alter public perception. While Google claims it did not follow through with certain plans, its overtly liberal culture and past interventions in elections raise concerns about the integrity of the 2024 election.
