Google continues its war against Trump
Stephen Green
Everyone who has ever used, heard, or read the word "bloodbath" knows it has multiple meanings. And thank goodness for that, since literal bloodbaths (like the one Hamas committed in Israel on Oct. 7, 2023) are far more rare than the figurative kind (like Google just committed against the word "bloodbath").
As you're probably aware, Democrats and the Mainstream Media (but I repeat myself) have spent the last several days trying to convince the proles that when Donald Trump warned that a second Biden administration would lead to a figurative bloodbath against the U.S. auto industry, what he really meant was a literal bloodbath if Trump were to lose the election.
And Google is happy to help by scrubbing the internet of all but the literal definition of "bloodbath."
Google's online dictionary boasts that its results are courtesy of Oxford Languages. These are the same people who publish the Oxford English Dictionary, which has long been the gold standard. The first time I ever saw an OED, it was a massive tome resting on its own special pedestal near the center of my high school's library — aged and beautiful. I swear to you, the sun appeared to shine down upon it with a single beam that somehow penetrated the library's roof and ceiling.
But I digress.
If you go to the Oxford Languages website, you'll find — behind a paywall, sadly — that "bloodbath" has no fewer than four meanings.
Google now only shows you one and has the temerity to tell you that it is the only definition according to the gold standard authorities at Oxford.
The company that owns more than 90% of the search market lies to and defrauds its users, all to push a political agenda and effectively steal an election.
If you're still using any of that vile company's products or services... WHY?
Like Green, I, too stopped using Google years ago, but I did check it today just to confirm the claim and sure enough, it’s true. Here’s the sole result a search for “bloodbath” produces:
