Exactly. If race baiters can manipulate white __ to show all black results, and a bunch of left-wing trolls can manipulate the word idiot to show Trump, what's preventing real manipulation of results for more targeted searches during elections? it wouldn't be as easy to spot as the aforementioned things. I wasn't quite buying the whole search manipulation/conservative censorship thing until I watched the leaked meeting after Trump's election (which was basically a call to political action by Google's leadership), i quickly reconsidered.

Correctness in a factual accuracy sense vs what people say are two very different search spaces and only the later is generically possible without knowing everything upfront.
