Yesterday I was inspired to cite Solzhenitsyn in something I was writing. It's a full paragraph, quite famous, but longer than I have memorized, so I gave it a search using Brave. Here's the quote I sought.
"And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand?... The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt! If...if...We didn't love freedom enough. And even more – we had no awareness of the real situation.... We purely and simply deserved everything that happened afterward.”― Aleksandr I. Solzhenitsyn ,The Gulag Archipelago 1918–1956"
But that's not what Brave showed me with it's new AI summary feature it now adds to it's list of links it turns up on a search. This is.
"Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn's quote "And how we burned in the camps" highlights the brutality of the Holocaust. In the camps, people were driven naked into showers, where guards closed and locked the doors. In some centers, carbon monoxide was piped into the chamber, while in others, camp guards threw "Zyklon B" pellets down an air shaft. The bodies were burned in ovens in the crematoria or buried in mass graves, and many people profited from the pillage of corpses. Camp guards stole some of the gold, while the rest was melted down and deposited in an SS bank account. Private business firms bought and used the hair to make many products, including ship rope and mattresses.1”
”encyclopedia.ushmm.org1”

So, Brave cited encyclopedia.ushmm.org - that was complete BS, absolutely reversing the meaning of Solzhenitsyn's words. The Bolsheviks were whom Solzhenitsyn referred to, and the Nazis were their enemies in WWII, eventually crushed by the endless human sacrifices the Bolsheviks threw at them, as we all know.
But clearly the indoctrinators and propagandists don't want folks to know that. They want people to think Solzhenitsyn was referring to the Nazis, not their enemies the Bolsheviks. I could not be more black pilled about the vile censorship and propaganda facing humanity today, despite I am sure that the lies being foisted on our children will fail to prevail in due time. Many kids that search for that quote will be misled, because they haven't read Solzhenitsyn, and have no idea what happened almost a century ago.
I haven't seen such blatant lies from a search engine before. But I am confident this is not the only example that can be found today, and that there is a intentional operation being undertaken to completely falsify history - because most of the history we've been taught is false anyway. It's pretty hard to know whether anything before the 20th Century happened in a particular way, because all the people that lived through it are dead. We didn't see any of those events. They can tell us any lies they want us to believe, and we wouldn't know they were lies.
And they're doing it to kids today, as we can see from the above. Do you know of any other examples of such blatant lies being pushed by search engines with their AI summaries? Do let me know if you do.
