...and by the way, dickhead Phantom didn't realise there were 11 questions.

I'm interested why the "conversative" Troy Bramston would've ever have worked for the Labor Party as a Ministerial staffer though? Does Troy know he is a conservative?? Can you elaborate with some of your wisdom on that one???

Troy is one of Australia’s best political historians, and is absolutely an economic conservative.

Aside from his gig with The Australian, he’s with The Sydney Institute, run by Gerard Henderson. <shudders>

The Blak Sovereignty Movement have switched to YES, isolating Lydia Thorpe.

‘Blak sovereignty’ leaders switch to Yes, isolating Lidia Thorpe

Warriors of Aboriginal Resistance organiser Tarneen Onus Williams is not the only Indigenous activist to switch from “hard No” to Yes as the referendum looms.

Worried about Gina. They've killed Elle's family.

I got the same, but they didn't ask me any questions about the constitution, so I think it might be rigged.

Another prominent Liberal MP explaining why they are pro-Yes for the Voice.

As a Liberal MP, I am voting yes to the voice because we have two Australias now and I want a united one | Matt Kean

On every front, Aboriginal Australians are not enjoying the same opportunities and outcomes as other Australians. The voice will help close that big gap

[Gronk]

Seems legit.

Don't think this one has been posted here yet. 3m 27s sums all the Voice stuff up nicely - onya Briggs.

Who believes this guy was actually an Oils fan ? Maybe not Oils or Head Injuries, but certainly since their third album Place Without a Postcard (1981) they have been activists. Now you've got the upsets dude ?

I was astounded how many kids at my high school were avid Midnight Oil fans (including the Dead Heart/Diesel and Dust era and songs) yet held racist views toward Aboriginal people....

This interview is so eye opening and actually the best news I have heard in years on an actual solution to exposing and even wounding the globalist machine somewhat in their relentless pursuit to ultimately enslave us in a world of fear and scarcity that they themselves have created to control us. Dr. Robert Epstein is actually a leftist liberal but he just doesn't want tyranny no matter what colour it comes in. Which is what we should all be wanting right?

I know it is a little long but it is well worth watching and putting up with AJ's terrible interview style of never shutting up and always interrupting. I know he can be so irritating. But like I said the insights that Dr Epstein shares and solution is brilliant and well worth understanding how Google and others manipulate ALL of us with such a small but as it turns out mega massive thing that is so overlooked known as 'ephemeral content'. I think this is the sort of thing that once you see it and understand it, you can never not be aware of it again.

I know that some of you will dismiss this because of your hard core set belief structures, but for everyone else this is well worth the effort of understanding and knowing and it isn't a left or right thing at all, but a fight for a free and transparent world if we can overcome all the tricks and manipulations they use on all of us.

Anyway, if you do watch it I'm interested in knowing what your thoughts are on it and if it has helped you understand and even more aware of how they push us towards their agendas without us even realising or knowing it at all and why things never seem to be going in the right direction? Cheers

There is some irony here.

Alex Jones pushing a narrative that google are a tool and “they” brainwash the public.

RIGGED ELECTION ALERT! Dr. Robert Epstein is Recording Data that Google is Using to Brainwash the Public and Steal Elections​

But this is not new, Robert Epstein has been trying to sell this for years.

Why the Bogus Study About Google Manipulating Votes Is a Powerful Weapon for the Right

It makes the false claim about social media’s anti-conservative “bias” look almost respectable.

Why is the hard right media re-hashing this again ? Ask our own Murdoch hack Miranda Devine. Must be an election coming up.

How Google manipulates search to favor liberals and tip elections

There is no reason to think it won’t happen again in 2024. Only Dr. Robert Epstein is standing in the way.

nypost.com

Is google perfect, no. Are Alphabet part of some global conspiracy aka “they” who plan this shit so Trump can’t have nice things ?

BTW, there are two sides to every story. So as much as many might think that filtering of mis/disinformation (whatever or however that is defined by the individual business owners) minimises Republican reach, there is other f**kery that should be addressed simultaneously if we are talking in the fair dinkum.

So what are you saying? You don't think he has merit in what he is exposing and even presenting at congressional hearings by showing his findings and data?

But then again, it exposes that most of the manipulation is advantaging the liberal left and that just won't do for lefties like you, who seem to think you are on the winning team somehow. He is a liberal lefty too, but understands and realises that it is irrelevant what side of politics you side on, in the end this type of power and manipulation will turn on everyone and has no real ideology but more power for themselves.

It amazes me that you always seem to think that pointing out that because someone has been warning or fighting for a cause for a while that that somehow weakens their findings, data and or argument. What a stupid and terribly weak rebuttal response and means absolutely nothing as far as disproving the findings presented.

The man has solid data that you and your lefty mates just don't want anyone that has an open mind to see or hear for fear of what that might provoke and ultimately generate response wise. Like Dr. Robert Epstein findings show, the needle doesn't move for people that already have strong opinions. What Google and others are doing are to influence the undecided and open minded ones amongst us in a direction that they want the population to go in.

You just don't want any of them to ever see how the magician does his trick or else it's game over and you don't want that. Well not as long as the magician is on your side anyway, once he turns on your side too, then you will be squealing like the little b*tch pig you and your side are, but I have news for you, it will be way to late for all of us then.

This is not a left or right issue, even though you always seem to make it that to suit or obfuscate your position.

For the members of this forum that are open minded, please ignore the Gronks of this world and watch the video and make up your own minds. I'm sure if you do you will see there is so much data and merit to what is being said.

Cheers

You seem to assume that you know more than others.

It didn't highlight anything I wasn't already aware of. I've seen Jeffrey's brother make these claims before. I seriously doubt there'd be many people on here that don't already understand the enormous power that Google has.

By the way you can't say this:

The man has solid data that you and your lefty mates just don't want anyone that has an open mind to see or hear

and then this:

This is not a left or right issue,

Without sounding hypocritical.
