Apparently Republicans are losing their minds today about the fact that women have the right to vote for whomever they choose.

They are freaking out about this video ad featuring the voice of Julia Roberts.

It would be a shame if all the commotion just made the video go hugely viral.

Pass it on.

Nice thought, but no: a billionaire(s) owns Google which owns YouTube which utterly controls the virality of everything, so with one word from a billionaire it can sink to the middle of rankings (not the bottom, lest that raise suspicions)

@VulcanTourist @KamalaHarrisWin

Probably you are right. Just googled Julia Roberts and top video is a Washington Examiner story about how awful the ad is:

But, as they say, no publicity is bad publicity.

Well... now the ranking results have flipped, apparently. So my observation here filtered up to the top and made them change it to avoid criticism, right? 😇

@VulcanTourist @KamalaHarrisWin

Probably their AI sucked up your comment here on Mastodon and consumed 100,000 gallons of water to make the decision to promote the video.

It's a bit weird, though, because they customize search results and Google knows that I'm a man (and probably that I'm married), so it's weird that they put the opposite POV in front of me versus you. AI isn't so brilliant after all....
