Power is in tearing human minds to pieces and putting them together again in new shapes of your own choosing.

Some stories seem silly. They seem meaningless and trivial. Often, the opposite is true. Those silly, meaningless stories are actually a coordinated plan of microaggressions aimed at manipulating you. Things that pass right by our conscious into our subconscious can have a subtle but compounding effect on our psyche.
Google “happy black woman”
Then “happy Asian woman”
Then “happy white woman”See what happens.

Silly right? Seems a little looney even. What if he’s right though? Let’s see.
Ok. Nothing wrong there. Let’s keep going.
Alright. I’m sensing a pattern. Let’s add Indian women.
Now Latinas.
Ok. If you Google search ‘happy ____ woman’ you get images of happy women from that demographic. What’s the problem then?
Wait. We didn’t finish the challenge. We added a couple more searches to the original challenge but we have one more to go.
Oh my. It seems we’ve stumbled onto something. These images don’t fit the pattern. They are completely different than the other search results for the same thing.
Funny thing about those silly, meaningless stories we barely notice. We don’t believe them even though we see them. They can’t be true because they are just so ridiculous.
And if all others accepted the lie which the Party imposed — if all records told the same tale — then the lie passed into history and became truth.

Do we get the same results using another search engine?
Duck Duck Go:
Uh oh. That’s the results Google search should have given us for the pictures if they were consistent.
What about Bing?
Well, there’s that link at the top but the images are what should have shown up in Google.
Now … why do you think Google would show happy images of women of color in a completely different fashion than happy white women? Why are the other search engines showing consistent results for that search but Google isn’t?
“It would not be impossible to prove with sufficient repetition and a psychological understanding of the people concerned that a square is in fact a circle. They are mere words, and words can be molded until they clothe ideas and disguise.”
