Alexa: I Am Arresting You For Election Interference! You Have the Right to Remain Silent.....

Right on top of having Facebook ban a post of mine—criticizing it for censoring a message with a patriotic image as being “violent”—we now learn that Amazon’s Alexa is, in effect, campaigning for Kah-Mah-La, weighing in with all the reasons why one should not vote for President Trump.

This is all over the internet right now and it seems there are several different versions of it, but there is no doubt it did happen, as Amazon has put out a statement that it was an “error” which has since been fixed. Are we seeing the prelude to the inevitable October surprise(s)? Kamala was never border czar, she was never against fracking and this is not, repeat not, election interference! Repeat after me, Winston Smith, 2 + 2= 5. Or else. This is bone-chillingly frightening.

Right about now, George Orwell could be asking himself: why didn’t I think of that? Even he would not believe the chicanery we are seeing from the monolith of the Democrats, Big Tech, the corporate media, entertainment, “Contrologarchs,” as the recent book by Seamus Bruner terms them. It's fitting since this involves Amazon, whose owner is Jeff Bezos, this is a perfect example of how far they are going to go to beat President Trump.

God Help us.

    They forgot to add the (possibly subliminal) "suggestion" (order) to not reveal it on YouTube and elsewhere.

    D'oh!

    A couple weeks ago there was a similar issue with Alexa refusing to acknowledge that Trump had been shot. Alexa would confirm that Ronald Reagan had been shot.

    I have a friend with a Google AI assistant. He asked it and got the same result: Google would not confirm that Trump had been shot.

    Life would be so much simpler today if state legislatures had all retained the process of Presidential Elector Certification in their own hands. No one forced them to go to a statewide popular vote or to delegate the certification of electors to anyone. Now we have officials in some states suggesting we give up the Constitution.

    Does the First Amendment not apply to Amazon?
