Re:Google promoted Texas gunman fake tweets by mrtksn on Thursday November 09, 2017 @05:56AM (#15661420)
You forget the part where the aggregated content is displayed in a different context than the one it is created for.

It's perceived as an factual answer to a question because it shows up when googled with keywords other than "Popular on Twitter" : https://twitter.com/justinhendrix/status/927335154707828736/...

When you see these tweets on Twitter, you'll quickly identify them as fake due to the context. On Google on the other hand you will see the false statements but these false statements would not be corrected if these tweets were not the exact content you're looking for and you just consumed them and moved on to the content you were searching.
