Days after Google was exposed trying to help Hillary Clinton win the 2016 election, a leaked "internal only" video published by Breitbart Senior Tech correspondent Allum Bokhari reveals a panel of Google executives who are absolutely beside themselves following Hillary Clinton's historic loss.
The video is a full recording of Google’s first all-hands meeting following the 2016 election (these weekly meetings are known inside the company as “TGIF” or “Thank God It’s Friday” meetings). Sent to Breitbart News by an anonymous source, it features co-founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin, VPs Kent Walker and Eileen Naughton, CFO Ruth Porat, and CEO Sundar Pichai. -Breitbart
In the video, Brin can be heard comparing Trump supporters to fascists and extremists - arguing that like other extremists, Trump voters suffered from "boredom" which has, he claims, historically led to fascism and communism.
He then asks his company what they can do to ensure a "better quality of governance and decision-making."
And according to Kent Walker, VP for Global Affairs, those who support populist causes like the MAGA movement are motivated by "fear, xenophobia, hatred and a desire for answers that may or may not be there."
He later says that Google needs to fight to ensure that populist movements around the world are merely a "blip" and a "hiccup" in the arc of history that "bends towards progress."

It is not only Tech, and the Media corps that are Far Left Democrat supporters. It is most of Wall St, and corporate America. Yes Google. Facebook, Twitter, Comcast, Apple, MSN, NBC, CBS, ABC/Disney/ESPN, PBS, CNN, MSNBC are all Far Left Democrat, but there are many others. Tech, and Media have a virtual monopoly on the flow of information, and yes they are censoring conservative thought they don't like.

Barf. Quite a display of clueless arrogance.

Were you referring to the quote Lucifer provided, or to Anthony's response.

I think Jim was referring to the video itself. I am planning to watch it later today.
Another commentary:

The video.

So? Since when does the first amendment not apply to private citizens? Had their been cameras in my house you would have gotten quite the video, probably way more entertaining. Booze always helps. Thankfully there wasn't. I'm not too big on cameras, less evidence created means less to burn.

I kind of barfed at my response because it is unfortunately TRUE.

I’m sorry, did someone propose that the Government silence these Google execs? If so, I missed it.
Or are you saying the First Amendment means that no one is allowed to ridicule and scorn the words and actions from the people saying inane and irrational shit?

Well, when they effectively become a public utility, then they can justly be required to treat all segments of the public equally and fairly...even and especially “those people”. You would never tolerate unequal delivery of power to white people or telephones only for the right. Yet you seem very willing to allow private companies which provide public information to skew the information they provide.
Are Google and Facebook public utilities? An interesting question that has more traction than you would expect. I am not in favor of having the government regulate anything. However, these companies should regulate themselves before the become irrelevant.

Google talks about their devotion to free speech and that their company values compassion and love, but they are partners in putting millions of Chinese in concentration camps by developing the new google platform to be used by the chinese to not only silence dissenting voices, but to allow those voices to be located and kidnapped into brutal work camps.
Every word the democrats say is a cover for their desire to assist communism and damage liberty.
It's in their DNA.

They are NOT public utilities. Competitors have always existed for both and the barriers to entry are quite low - do you not realize or have forgotten that search engines existed before Google - and still do (I started using duckduckgo and occasionally bing)? That it was started by college students? Ditto Facebook. The latter competed against myspace, among others.
Success, size, and market dominance do not define “public utility.” The latter can be said to occur only when physical or extreme barriers to competition exist.
