Google vs. The Irish Savant

By Nicholas Stix

The Irish Savant is on Google’s Index.

Google is trying to scare people off from reading the brilliant, often funny blog, The Irish Savant, by semi-blocking it. If you try to access the blog, you’ll instead get stopped at a cyber-checkpoint saying,

    I am aware that Google has attempted to throw a stumbling block in the way of The Irish Savant. That pisses me off. They should leave him be.

    I commend you Nicholas, for coming to his defense.

    While the censorship is wrong, the Irish Savant is just another twit motivated by grievance.

    A "twit motivated by grievance", RonL? Like the Jewish Holocaust "grievance"? The Muslim Crusades "grievance"? The Greeks' grievance against the Turks and the Turks' grievance against the Armenians? The Rwandan Tutsi "grievance"? The Puritan Church "grievance"? Mandela's and Umbeki's and Zuma's "grievance" against white folks?

    I daresay we Americans would not even be a nation if we had not sunk to the level of being "motivated by a grievance" against the British.

    Thank God for "grievances", Mr. RonL.

    The risih Savantis blocked on iPhones. I click on the "I Understand" button and Google just sits there. The button no longer takes me to Irish Savant.
