Google Listed 'Nazism' as the Ideology of the California Republican Party (gizmodo.com)

Less than a week ago, if you searched for the California Republican Party on Google, you might have read that the political party's ideologies included conservatism, market liberalism, and nazism. The latter listing has since been removed, and Google is blaming the results on Wikipedia "vandalism." From a report: Vice first reported the inclusion of "Nazism" under ideologies in Google's knowledge panel -- the box that shows up to the right of search results. It's unclear how long the term had been there, but the tech giant removed it after being notified by the publication. "We regret that vandalism on Wikipedia briefly appeared on our search results," Google tweeted on Thursday in response to California congressman and House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy. "This was not the the result of a manual change by Google. We have systems in place that catch vandalism before it impacts search results, but occasionally errors get through, and that happened here."

Ethno-Nationalism is EXACTLY what Trump, Bannon, and the rest of the Repugnant KKKlan party espouse.

You got your parties mixed up: the party of the KKK is the Democrats. Hillary was best buddies with a former KKK member.

economist is going to tell me what my lying ears and eyes are not sensing? really? and I'm supposed to listen because... ?

the republicans are the closest things to nazis in the US, today. they are very racist, don't like anyone who isn't in their club of christianity, they block progress at every chance, they want to control women and tell them what they can do with their bodies, they are against any kind of fun or pleasure that isn't what THEY, in particular, like (the whole hatred of sex, drugs, rockandroll, etc).

and with the orange idiot in charge, he's given a free pass for those that stayed under a rock, to come crawl out and show themselves. and, oh boy, have they ;(

there is NO left in the US anymore. it boggles the mind how anyone can say ANY kind of 'left' has power in the US. we don't even have a middle; we have right and far-right, that's all.

to say that nazis in the modern age are leftist is beyond absurd.

left is for progress and equal rights, freedom for all, education for all, basic human rights for all. we have no left and the nazis in the US are definitely NOT leftists!

but go ahead and believe some 'economist'. yeah, right. he's smarter than our lying eyes and ears, of course.
