It’s no secret that corporate America leans left. From advertising campaigns pushing progressive causes to boardrooms where woke buzzwords fly like confetti, the bias is evident. This tilt isn’t subtle; it’s baked into the culture. Executives from major corporations regularly appear at Senate hearings, defending their companies from accusations of political bias. And guess what? The responses always follow the same script: “Oops! It was an error.” But is it really?
The bias isn’t just confined to the flashy marketing efforts or virtue-signaling. It’s in your living room, too—courtesy of tech giants that control what you see, hear, and now, who you might vote for. The latest scandal from Amazon’s Alexa is just the tip of the iceberg. And it has conservatives raising eyebrows—again.
The video showed a user asking Alexa, “Why should I vote for Donald Trump?” to which Alexa responded, “I cannot provide content that promotes a specific political party or a specific candidate.”
However, when the user immediately asked why she should vote for Kamala Harris, Alexa gave a more positive response, stating, “While there are many reasons to vote for Kamala Harris, the most significant may be that she is a strong candidate with a proven track record of accomplishment.” [Source: The Post Millennial]
Amazon is scrambling after a video went viral, showing Alexa offering a glowing review of Vice President Kamala Harris while stiff-arming former President Donald Trump. When a user asked Alexa why they should vote for Trump, Alexa responded like a robot who just found its conscience. “I cannot provide content that promotes a specific political party or candidate,” the assistant said, suddenly bound by an ethical code.
But that same code seemed to vanish when asked about Harris. Alexa’s response? A full-on campaign speech. The virtual assistant praised Harris’s “strong track record” and her status as the first female vice president, lauding her commitment to “progressive ideals.” Forget the debates—who needs them when you’ve got Alexa doing your PR?
Naturally, Amazon’s response came fast and furious. This glowing endorsement of Harris over Trump? Just a simple mistake. According to the company, it was an “error” that they’ve since fixed. But the Trump campaign didn’t seem to buy it. Senior Trump advisor Jason Miller sarcastically pointed out that this “error” felt an awful lot like the kind of “errors” that previously surfaced during Big Tech’s censorship of the Hunter Biden laptop story. The more things change, the more they stay the same.
The question conservatives are asking is this: how many more “errors” will we discover before we accept that these tech companies aren’t as neutral as they claim? The timing is always suspicious, and the narrative always seems to lean in the same direction. It’s clear that when it comes to choosing sides, the “mistakes” just happen to favor the left. Is it election interference? Steven Cheung from the Trump campaign thinks so, calling it out for what many see as yet another instance of Big Tech meddling in the political process.
One could almost forgive Amazon if this was a one-off situation. But as more and more users report similar instances, it raises a troubling question: who really controls the narrative in America? With billions of people relying on devices like Alexa, Siri, and Google Assistant for information, these tech giants wield immense power. And with that power comes responsibility—or, at least, it should.
So while Amazon may insist that Alexa’s love letter to Kamala Harris was an innocent fluke, the reality is that many conservatives aren’t convinced. After all, once is an accident, twice is suspicious, and three times? Well, you know the rest.
