Google Listed ‘Nazism’ As The Ideology Of The California Republican Party |
2018-06-01 |
[NEWS.VICE] Less than a week before the Caliphornia, an impregnable bastion of the Democratic Party, primary, Google listed "Nazism" as the ideology of the California Republican Party. In the "knowledge panel" that provides easy access to information next to search results, Google was showing "Nazism" as an "ideology" of the party as of Thursday morning. The word "Nazism" was hyperlinked to a secondary page that shows "Nazism" alongside other "ideologies" of California Republicans like "Conservatism," "Market liberalism," "Fiscal conservatism," and "Green conservatism." California voters have been casting their absentee ballots for weeks ahead of Tuesday’s statewide primary elections, which will help determine the majority in the House of Representative and the potential next governor of the world’s fifth-largest economy. But voters looking for information by searching "California Republicans" or "California Republican Party" were getting "Nazism" next to their search results until Google took the listing down later Thursday after a query from VICE News.

#4 To my memory, the real live actual Nazi's never referred to 'Nazism'. They proudly spoke of it's real name, National Socialism. Then again I guess it would be a tough sell if they were to wise up the rubes and suckers too soon. |

#3 Sad thing is I am not surprised at Google employees for doing this and for Google for allowing it. |
