Google redefined fascist for everyone

[kindy64]

So, this should clear things up...

Merriam-Webster defines the word “fascism” as “a political philosophy, movement, or regime (as that of the Fascisti) that exalts nation and often race above the individual and that stands for a centralized autocratic government headed by a dictatorial leader, severe economic and social regimentation, and forcible suppression of opposition.” The secondary definition is “a tendency toward or actual exercise of strong autocratic or dictatorial control.”

That is interesting.
Thats actually an incredibly powerful thing. Most people dont know the difference in socialism, fascism, communism (insert ism here). They simply attribute them to be bad things.

Redefining one to a single party is akin to saying that one party is bad. I will avoid useing google definitions in the future.

scary world with mega corporations having the power they have.
I entrust Google with my main email that links all my accounts (and phone) for everything as well as its cloud features for my work, I also use their VOIP phone system, there search engine and been dyeing to get google fiber *which I wont be able too*...
The meta data google has probably eclipses the CIA. They know everything from your location (if you run android), your friends, your conversations, likes, dislikes, down to your sexual preferences and habits.
They have dominated Microsoft Windows in operational devices useing Android, are worth more than APPLE now " Alphabet (GOOGL, Tech30), the parent company of Google, just passed Apple (AAPL, Tech30) to become the world's most valuable company. Again. Larry Page's tech conglomerate is now worth about $498 billion compared to Apple's market cap of around $495 billion" with there GPS technology you could almost say GPS = google position system.

ffs... google (alphabet) is scary.

I do agree that Google or anyone should appoint a particular political party in the definition but in the other thread, without getting technical on the definition, any government, political party can be fascist.

On google and data collection. Yes, Google collects so much data, they know what you do, when you do it, they collect enough data to pretty much guess your next move.

Got an android phone? Might want to check this out. Here's everywhere you've been...
https://www.google.com/maps/timeline

So they got your email, browsing history, your interests, your likes, what turns you on and what kind of porn and crap you watch and everywhere you have been (with your phone) and how long you were there and with all that data let's just say they know you better than you know yourself.

Like I said elsewhere, it's not big government you need to worry about it is the corporations, they now pretty much control government... Monsanto anyone? Oil Companies? Banks?

Fascism : a definition that is interesting.

Then there's this, more James O'Brien from LBC, which is development of the first video.... today's or yesterday's release. Something important to realise. It's the list that comes from the U.S. Holocaust Museum.

Wow, equating NOT FUNDING the arts, with tearing down statues and burning books, is way over the top...

In effect, google has redefined a political term to mean, anyone we hate.

I never trusted Google with their self driving cars and their fun and relaxed work environment. That's what they want you to see, but you have to ask yourself whats in the basement.

Yeah I'm not a fan of changing definitions for well any cause.

It's about patents. Who has the patents makes the money, not necessarily the products. So if google get patents that other companies want to use for their self driving cars, they get money. Also the reason why Apple, HP, etc are worth so much.

Google has a motto, "Do no evil" and well that is debatable, especially in light of changing definitions of words.
