Second, our ruling class monoculture extends to the tech companies (Boy howdy! Does it ever!) and the observation above that a monoculture isn’t very good at perceiving its own flaws is one hundred percent true.

Third, the seemingly irresistible desire of our ruling class to control what people see, read, and think is both frightening, and disgusting, even as it is simultaneously contemptible and risible.

And fourth, the consequences of censorship are often other than what the censors intend.

That's because censors usually are morons who think they're smarter than everyone else. We've had a ringside seat for repeated demonstrations of this principle, thanks to suppression of legitimate news stories and silencing of dissent that turned out to be correct over the past four years.

And don't think that the Gemini AI was a glitch. The AI likely operated as intended; the product didn't reflect programming errors. They reflected the assumptions and activism of its creators and managers.
