google search results are still kind of useful especially for non-english language queries, anyone knows a good alternative?

searxng also doesn't really seem to work these days..

Hear me out. From day one we all needed to collectively reject any effort to make any profit online. I don't care if you built something cool, sold furry art or create some neat SAAS. Day one everything should have been stolen and replicated. Everyone should have been terrified of putting anything online out of fear that the monetary value would go to 0 as it was digitally recreated. We wouldn't be in this situation today with Trump if we stood our ground. We'd have flying cars and world peace

WUT? Why?

We wouldn’t be in this situation today with Trump

Trump was inevitable and is a product of silly, gullible Americans blown about by political winds without a compass or direction. Americans don't vote with the long term in mind. For the most part, their future lies within 4 year increments, never really grasping the fact that legislation passed today will be with us for generations if not longer. All you have to do is look at Cannabis laws in this country perpetuated by rich, white, racist, capitalist from 100 years ago.

We’d have flying cars and world peace

As someone who has been promised flying cars for 71 years, I don't think I want the average motorist flying about all willy nilly. We can't even handle the tarmac ffs....and you want flying cars? World peace? The world doesn't want peace. There is too much to be had in conflict.
