Never trust someone who writes: "a historical...."

He's wrong: https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=Camille+Paglia+has+talked+often+and+plainly+about+her+view+that+the+emergence+of+widespread+and+performative+gender+confusion+is+a+sign+of+a+historical+end+stage.+&sca_esv=569281890&source=hp&ei=bREWZb-xB_eHhbIP2te5oAw&iflsig=AO6bgOgAAAAAZRYffQhMLHoprobc8Ds4CNQdIojyk3LT&ved=0ahUKEwj_m53bv86BAxX3Q0EAHdprDsQQ4dUDCAw&uact=5&oq=Camille+Paglia+has+talked+often+and+plainly+about+her+view+that+the+emergence+of+widespread+and+performative+gender+confusion+is+a+sign+of+a+historical+end+stage.+&gs_lp=Egdnd3Mtd2l6IqMBQ2FtaWxsZSBQYWdsaWEgaGFzIHRhbGtlZCBvZnRlbiBhbmQgcGxhaW5seSBhYm91dCBoZXIgdmlldyB0aGF0IHRoZSBlbWVyZ2VuY2Ugb2Ygd2lkZXNwcmVhZCBhbmQgcGVyZm9ybWF0aXZlIGdlbmRlciBjb25mdXNpb24gaXMgYSBzaWduIG9mIGEgaGlzdG9yaWNhbCBlbmQgc3RhZ2UuIEgAUABYAHAAeACQAQCYAQCgAQCqAQC4AQPIAQD4AQL4AQE&sclient=gws-wiz

As a perma-marginalized human that doesnt care if churren scramble their genitalia or scramble their gender identity for attention, I have to say, watching with bemused detatchment from the sidelines that I am quite amazed how fast things got so weird.....

I use Bing for most things but Yandex if its a sensitive subject and I need real answers.

Russian counterpart to Google: https://yandex.com/

Not sure if it would give real answers related to russian affairs... But yeah I believe I can find real answers related to american subjects. Thanks for the headsup.

I use it to find putlocker - old shows and movies that google doesn't seem to pull up anymore. Blocked, I guess.

Blocked, I guess.

Reality is too inconvenient for some people :)

I did a test and removed the quotes from end stage and Google worked just fine. Gave me the same information as the Bing site. While I don't have a lot of trust in Google, figuring out how to force a bad return doesn't make me want to switch to Microsoft, which I'm pretty sure isn't too much better than Google.
