A comment on Google as a search engine is becoming useless.

Re:Google as a search engine is becoming useless by notacoward on Thursday March 14, 2019 @07:42AM (#19388307)
Factually incorrect (there were other search engines before Google), poorly formatted, and quite possibly one of the most egotistical un-self-aware things I've ever read.

"most people, being the mainstream dulltards they are"

Strong words from someone who can't spell.

"algorythm" (twice) ... "migrant crysis" ... "merchantile"

Hypocrisy 1:

"Its a basic logical fallacy, to believe an assertion is true just because others believe it."

"certainly some other people agree with me on this one"

Hypocrisy 2:

"what are you achieving by shouting a few words without PROVING any of them"

Elitism:

"The masses must NOT rule"

Hate:

"The muslims ... Too bad they suck as well."

And this WTF from one of the responses:

"It seems to me that the DNS Server would have a list of all the web pages title addresses alongside the number for the site."

CoAlpha seems to be an explicitly reactionary, implicitly racist, incel-friendly cesspit. Not worth anyone's time to follow a link there.

I did not RTFA yet so I do not know whether what you write here is based on fact or otherwise. What I do notice is that you end your entry with a bunch of labels - reactionary, racist and incel - which tend to be used by people who are guilty of many of the same transgressions as those which you accuse this CoAlpha site of: hypocrisy, elitism and hate. Your reaction would be more convincing had it not been for that last line, now it just reads like the pot who is berating the kettle for being black.

   ...[time passes]...
RTFA, the author named 'purpleduck' has diarrhoea of the typewriter and could have said what he wanted in a few lines instead of a number of pages: Google has jumped the shark when it comes to search. The rest is just drivel and as such this link was nor worthy of its position on the front page.

> tend to be used

Not sure if that's projection or whataboutism, but I also don't give a damn. The site identifies itself as reactionary. It's right there in the name. Likewise, many of its members identify themselves as incels, and the name "CoAlpha" is a reference to the same ideological complex. The racism, while not admitted, is no less obvious. I'm pretty sure anyone reading this exchange would conclude that you are the one with an unacknowledged agenda in offering such an aggressive yet truth- and insight-free defense of such tripe.
