Pay attention.

The new Google Search result layout is an op.

My theory is that it's meant to condition people to not be able to recognize the difference between valid/organic information, sponsored information, misinformation, disinformation and corporate/govt propaganda.

That’s exactly it. This was planned long in advance to destroy the distinction between neoliberal capitalism and its propaganda, real information, and government control operations (usually the same as corporate ones in most areas). Now that Google has de facto control of the collective nous they are using that power. It will be very effective indeed. The past decade or two has just been a prelude to what’s about to happen.
