Somewhat related, why is this such a big deal? It was obvious google was anti-white long before this. All you had to do was search for happy white people happy black people.
How come normies are noticing stuff now?
Most propaganda is subtle. Something that can be excused or brushed off easily, boiling the pot slowly so most normies don't even notice - or if they do, they only have a faint unease before dismissing it as being overly paranoid, or 'just seeing things'.
They do not notice over-arching trends, or have a notion of a long time horizon. Most people that point out that things might have been 'different' in the past are dismissed as luddites or boomers.
Try pointing out the number of black people they see on TV, or how many happy white families they see in advertisements, or the composition of inter-racial pairings in most stories and comics. You'll either get faint unease before brushing it off, at beast, or them getting angry at you for pointing it out, as if you're some sort of sub-human for actually Noticing.
This? It's stupidly blatant, can't be ignored, can't get passed off as just being paranoid, can't be excused. It's showing that one of the massive tech-giants in the industry is actively working to erase white people in media as a whole. It's the metaphorical equivalent of getting hammered over the head with a club, and normies are left floundering trying to figure out why they just got hit.
Also they feel like they are informed people and if they didn't hear about on the news it must be a nothingburger, no idea that their news is just intentionally hiding it all from them. Like I never searched for "white family" myself until I heard about it on probably T_D.
For example NPR didn't even cover Google Gemini being racist at all, even to spin it as just "inaccurate" and only a simple mistake "oops".
If you get your news primarily from a racist shithole rag like that you don't even know it happened, but NPR is perfectly fine giving 30 minutes of airtime to a "gender-swapping photo app" that tricks people into thinking they wouldn't look hideous as trans.
I didn't go looking for that crap, I just searched for "bard" after "gemini" came up with bubkis. It's just pervasive there.
