A manager at Google allegedly cautioned a lower-level employee for questioning the company’s stance on “fake news,” telling him that the company had to stop fake news and “hate speech,” because “that’s how Trump won,” according to a post aired publicly by another Google employee on social media.
Mike Wacker, a software engineer at Google, published on social media a redacted email he claims he received from a fellow employee in 2017, which alleged political bias at the company. According to Wacker’s post, his colleague at Google wrote:
"Also, I posted a comment on a meme regarding fake news on Search and someone reported it to [Human Resources]. I didn’t say I was in favor or against, just cautioned that we need to be car[e]ful. My manager brought it up in our 1:1 last week. Made me feel very uncomfortable for having an opposing view. He said we need to stop hate [speech] and fake news because that’s how Trump won the election.
"I obviously didn’t say anything and just wanted it to end. I [redacted] would like to see all managers be required to take political bias training."
The employee also alleged the existence of official training courses at Google dedicated to “bashing conservatives and Trump supporters.”

Well, he’s absolutely right. America saw the MSM lie, cheat and try to steal an election for Hillary, but thwarted the concerted effort at the ballot box.
The ENTIRE tech world are the ones to blame. They tried to help OBAMA in getting CLINTON elected with LIE'S and FALSE information. They are CORRUPT as the democrats are and will continue with FAKE NEWS.
