What's the Use of a Search Engine That Cannot Find What's Published On Its Own Platform: Google Versus Bing

We did a search for our latest post using the following search string:

Canspeccy: How will the Ukraine War End?

Bing came up with this, which is what you'd expect, though they were remarkably quick to index the post.

Here's Google's shot at it. Even if we put the post title in quotes, Google can't find it even though it exists on Google's own servers or in their own cloud. 

Is that pathetic or what? 

Yeah, pathetic absolutely, although when you search Google for the title of this piece they do give you a link to  21 other search engines most, perhaps all, of which do better that Google, or should that be "Gurgle" as in going down the credibility tube. 

And yet some guy at Google says their system has achieved consciousness. LOL: The consciousness of the oblivious. 

Or should we say that Google is the sanitized search engine: What you don't know cannot cause you to challenge the official narrative. In this case the message telegraphed by NATO chief Jens Stoltenberg as his message rotates 180 degrees a minute.

Which brings to mind, once again, the story about the Russian who is on an airliner heading to the US, and the American in the seat next to him asks, “So what brings you to the US?” The Russian replies, “I’m studying the American approach to propaganda.” The American says, “What propaganda?” The Russian says, “That’s what I mean.”

Today, a Google search for our latest post, which is entitled: 

As the World's New Number One Bully, Is China Paving the Way to World War

Returns:

As the World's New Number One Bully, Is China Paving the Way to World War

But today, Google is again the search engine that can't find its own arse with both hands. Search for: 

Who Really Killed Kennedy: Joe Rogan gives Steven Pinker's Expert on "weird beliefs" a hard time on the Kennedy Assassination


and you get this:


Pretty amazing, since that item is our current post on Google's own blogger platform.

Bing, in contrast managed to find our current post and list it first out of, allegedly five billion, three hundred and twenty million results. Wow, can there really be that many Web pages devoted to the Kennedy assassination?

Some time ago we pointed out to Google's CEO, Sundar Pichai, in a polite letter that Google was either failing to retrieve our blog posts, or deliberately hiding them. We received no reply. Google is evidently run by a philistine, or maybe a CIA agent, or both.
