Agreed.

As a thought experiment: Imagine the owner of Google turned out to be a massive Trump supporter. Would it be acceptable to remove Hillary supporting websites during the run up to the election from search results as a political protest?

Actual fracturing wouldn't necessarily be in his interest, but I guess we can assume that's not the goal anyway. The goal would have to be silencing the social media presence of the right, a return to the status quo ante of public discourse.

*the alt-right

Or, less euphemistically, the neo-Nazi.

I'll reference the other thread about 'racism'; I don't know what 'alt-right' even means, so I don't know how to have an opinion about it.

who's fault is that? there's plenty of articles out there, pick one or read a few and synthesize. Or go straight to the source: reddit.com/r/altright (warning: contains explicit white nationalism/anti-semitism)

I'm broadly read on the subject. The problem isn't what I've read, it's what the next person or article means by the term. It varies wildly.
