Type in "Is Kamala Harris a good Democratic candidate

and any good search engine will find results containing keywords such as “Kamala Hareris”, “Democratic”, “candidate”, and “good”.

[…] you might ask if she’s a “bad” Democratic candidate instead

In that case, of course the search engine will find results containing keywords such as “Kamala Hareris”, “Democratic”, “candidate”, and “bad”.

So the whole premise that, “Fundamentally, that’s an identical question” is just bullshit when it comes to searching. Obviously, when you put in the keyword “good”, you’ll find articles containing “good”, and if you put in the keyword “bad”, you’ll find articles containing “bad” instead.

Google will find things that match the keywords that you put in. So does DuckDuckGo, Qwant, Yahoo, whatever. That is what a good search engine is supposed to do.

I can assure you, when a search engines stop doing that, and try to give “balanced” results, according to whatever opaque criteria for “balanced” their company comes up with, that will be a nightmare scenario.

I don’t like Google, and only use google when other search engines fail. But this article is BS.
