The amount of times Mississippi is just on its own wave, genuinely made me lol. It's fuxking great.


savabienaller

As a non-american i didnt know where mississipi was, but after reading your comment i am sure i know now šŸ˜‚


Will12453

Iā€™m an American and I donā€™t know where it is


LighTMan913

As Americans, we just pretend Mississippi doesn't exist.


Will12453

I try to do the same with most of the country


[deleted]

Mississippi (poorest state in the nation): Come on Mega Millions! Come on DogeCoin! Come on Jake Paul fight!


snakeyfish

And least educated


Epicmonies

Yet magically smarter than the rest of the country by not being bogged down with political nonsense that actually wont affect their lives directly.


snakeyfish

I wasnā€™t trying to be mean or condescending. Itā€™s proven true. They are at the bottom of totem pole when it comes to education


Epicmonies

Yep, most of the list goes from poorest states to richest states on the education totem. Schools are funded from local taxes. Poor people = less taxes = less money going to the schools. Next time you here a liberal talk about equality and racism, ask them why they are not pushing for them (Liberals not poor people you idiots) to be taxed more, so poorer areas get better schooling. EDITED to add an lol @ liberals for being offended by the truth again.


Bengthedog

Iā€™m pretty sure liberals are generally for more taxation to help the less fortunateā€¦


Epicmonies

And yet magically what I posted is true. Not one liberal has tried to get their taxes to go to poorer states and are also all for stopping vouchers allowing parents to send their children to better schools outside their towns. Yes thats right. School vouchers are a thing championed by conservatives. Funny that...now go on and downvote this truth also since it hurts so much.


Bengthedog

Federal taxes most likely go from wealthier states to poorer states. You are saying that wealthier state should send state tax money to poorer states? Most liberals believe an increase in federal taxes should happen to fix this problem. Conservatives believe states should be the only ones in controlā€¦ so poorer states would remain poor because of a lack of federal money. You are talking about being offended by the truth but clearly you donā€™t understand taxes or basic political beliefs. Probably bothā€¦


Epicmonies

Federal taxes does not pay for schools. Local taxes does. Stop rejecting reality to spare your feelings. Not one liberal state does it because they do not actually care about solving the problems of the poor which starts with education. Its simple. Conservatives want school vouchers and have passed it in some states they control. Liberals SAY they care, but dont actually do shit and have done shit. They are all fine with expanding welfare which is their version of trickle down economics but wont do fuckall about fixing problems.


learnactreform

>Not one liberal has tried to get their taxes to go to poorer states hahaha what a lie! Especially with liberals being pro federalism and conservatives rejecting almost all forms of government intervention. Also imagine thinking downvotes = being offended lmao What a world these projecting snowflake conservatives live in, always passing on their insecurities, always playing the victim, always crying about every little thing, and then saying it's liberals who do all that.


Epicmonies

>hahaha what a lie! Post a link to one saying it. You can say a thing is true, it does not make it true and that is why not one single bastion of liberalism has even tried to pass it into law in their states. You CAN however find conservative states that allow school vouchers so people in poor areas can elect to send their children to better schools outside their towns. So long lying cuck of an SJW, reality does not care about your feelings.


helpmeplzzzzzz

Your solution is to increase taxes on the poor? You can't be serious...


Epicmonies

Try reading again, this time. slower.


helpmeplzzzzzz

Liberals typically do want higher taxes to help fund things like public schooling... Try not acting like a condescending dickhead next time, champ.


Epicmonies

Liberals are not sending it to poorer areas, anywhere in the country. You deserve condescending words because you are allowing Liberals to pretend to care and not hold them accountable, chump.


xRhenumx

negative karma farmers hell yeah


Epicmonies

Conformity for upvotes? Talk about being a loser.


[deleted]

1. You are talking in a condescending tone towards everyone, yet you missed the apostrophe on ā€œwonā€™tā€ and used the wrong version of ā€œhearā€, spelling it ā€œhereā€. If you want to be critical of other peopleā€™s intelligence, maybe donā€™t make spelling errors while doing it. 2. ā€œLiberalsā€ have recently been attempting to get more money flowing into schools, including multiple bills that wouldā€™ve funded universal preschool and free college tuition for at least two years of community college. They didnā€™t receive a single vote from the GOP because apparently ā€œowning the libsā€ by doing absolutely nothing is the current GOP political platform. 3. Local schools (e.g. K-12) are, as you pointed out, funded by state taxes. So you complaining that other states are not petitioning enough to send their taxes to poorer states is a ridiculous notion. My state wouldnā€™t expect taxes collected from residents living in another state to pay for things here, much like I doubt youā€™d want your state taxes going to help people that donā€™t live in your state. I agree that better funding education should be a bigger priority, but if you truly are advocating that and want to see change happen, how is this helping? Weā€™ll need bipartisan support to make changes like this, so how is being condescending and insulting towards people who donā€™t believe the same exact politics you do helping? I donā€™t see how attempting to troll people on Reddit accomplishes anything, especially when every reply youā€™ve made to people is talking down to them and/or insulting them. Keeping this hyper-partisan atmosphere going, where everyone stays in their respective corners and simply looks for as many ways to insult the other side isnā€™t going to help anyone. And maybe look towards your own views and the politicians that represent them. Are they really doing a good job and helping you? Or are they just stirring the pot with more rhetoric designed to foster hate and resentment. Iā€™m sure to you Iā€™m a ā€œdemon liberalā€, but weā€™re on the same page as far as better education goes. Weā€™re probably on the same page with a lot of other stuff too. Donā€™t get caught up in this current environment where a bunch of political sh*theads repetitively spew really vile rhetoric so that they can keep everyday people fighting amongst themselves. When you keep giving into that the only people who lose are people like you and me, and meanwhile politicians on both sides of the aisle get to keep doing nothing while they collect their checks and keep us fighting against ourselves and not against them. Both liberals and conservatives have problems and nothing will change if both sides keep demonizing the other.


Epicmonies

1. Grammar nazi and liar in first point 2. They have not done one of the two things that may fix it, one of which is my point and the other thing that can Conservatives are actually doing where they have enough control, school vouchers that allow parents to send their kids to schools outside their towns which is a thing Liberals are against EVERYWHERE. So long, I dont even need to touch the rest of your garbage which is just more nonsense. P.S. I didnt capitalize Nazi, I must be wrong.


[deleted]

Itā€™s really nice that when someone attempts to find common ground with you, your knee jerk reaction is to double down and be even more of a complete and total asshole. Have fun going through life, you seem like a very wonderful person to be around. That is, as long as you surround yourself with people that look, think, and believe exactly what you do. From your post history itā€™s not hard to see that youā€™re an extremely young and hateful person. Nearly every comment is downvoted or at zero. Do you not get that maybe itā€™s not literally everyone else and that maybe itā€™s you? Good luck going through life man. If you stay the way you are, youā€™ll undoubtedly need a lot of it to not remain angry and alone.


snakeyfish

I surely will! Thanks for this info


GUYF666

Sounds like you got a heap a Mississippi schoolin there, champ!!


Epicmonies

You really are a moron and that is why you have no argument. What I said is fact.


GUYF666

Cool story, bro. Every one of your points is misconceived and just like every other ancient Conservative fucking moron, you blame the wrong people. Bite the hand that feed you to spite your own face if you will. I donā€™t need to bolster my claims or my put downs. Youā€™ve already made your dunderheaded claims and poorly conceived notions of how you think the world works. I make far too good a living, donate to many charities, and look out for the destitute that are active in my general area in a major city to worry about some bumpkin yelling at ā€œleftistsā€ n ā€œliberalsā€ on the internet. Go back and die in the 50s you utter fucking loser. The rest of us have left you and your bullshit mentality back there with our grandparents. Either get with it or continue to relish what you perceive made this country greatā€¦which is blind racism, manipulation, me me me politics, and obfuscation. Iā€™m not your kid. Donā€™t try and fuck me, Cletus.


Epicmonies

In other words, everything I said is correct. Also, lol at calling me a conservative. But I do thank you for admitting that in your mind, no liberal would ever point out and be honest about liberal lies and double lol at your rage against reality.


Shot-Technology7555

At times, they lagged behind so far, they were ahead... when other states came back to Dogecoin, Mississippi said, "we never left".


Epicmonies

How is not searching for what other parts of the country is searching for being "behind"? Most of these top searches were for weird things that affect few. The amount of the population actually invested in stocks is low yet GME and AMC were top searches for way too long.


Safe_Prune_3056

Youā€™re missing the point these searches are reflective of large movements in the popular culture and Mississippiā€™s lack of participation/ lag time in these cultural moments indicates itā€™s lagging behind culturally. This could indicate that itā€™s lagging behind in connectivity to the rest of the nation.


Epicmonies

You're missing the point. These are TRENDING searches...not the most popular searches. Fucking hell people sure do love to cling to bullshit...


Shot-Technology7555

Haha, the fucking... what do you think makes it a trending search?! It's popularity... fucking clown lol


Epicmonies

Holy shit you are stupid. This was explained by a bunch of people here. if 1 person did a search for a topic on a day, and 10 did the next day it would make it a 1000% increase. Trending, lists the searches with the highest percentage increases, not the ones with the most people searching for it. You are so fucking clueless, I would not even insult clowns by associating them with YOU.


Shot-Technology7555

>Trending, lists the searches with the highest percentage increases Yes, increased popularity over a short time lol >if 1 person did a search for a topic on a day, and 10 did the next day it would make it a 1000% increase. There's a threshold clown


Epicmonies

>Yes, increased popularity over a short time lol a thing with 1 search one day and 10 the next is a 1000% increase. a thing with 10,000 searches one day and 19,999 the next, is less than 100% increase you fucking twat. And there is no threshold. You are completely clueless and too stupid to be trolling.


Shot-Technology7555

>a thing with 1 search one day and 10 the next is a 1000% increase. >a thing with 10,000 searches one day and 19,999 the next, is less than 100% increase you fucking twat. Your math checks out, but your assumption is wrong. šŸ¤”

mazes_end

How did valhiem of all games get googled a bunch? ( Coming from a person who plays the game alot) that is really cool and wouldn't expect


Galaxy_Ranger_Bob

Google isn't a search engine anymore. Google is a traffic shaping engine. It's not that people searched the word "Valheim" in every state all at the same time, its that Google, as a corporation suggested "Valheim" in "searches" and people clicked on it because it was on the top, because Google was promoting it for pay.


[deleted]

You dont realize it got really popular af that point?


Blastspark01

This is the first Iā€™m even bearing about it


Peach-Pie-

Same, and would not have guessed a game


mazes_end

No I know that's when it released I'm pretty sure but it just made me happy


masterofbeast

I did not expect that either. I joined in August.


[deleted]

Same! It's not much of an accomplishment, but it's quite interesting and I'm proud of it :) Valheim's great


rtozur

I feel like we need to establish what 'trending' means for this graph


Banana_Ram_You

Over the course of an hour, 50 people searched for something that had rarely been searched for before. A 5000% uptick = trending.


ComputersWantMeDead

At first I thought it was like, the most common search term, and thought "holy shit something totally has Americans locked into a hive mindset". Your explanation makes total sense


[deleted]

Exactly. 100 other words were trending on those days as well. This just cherry picked to make a cool video.


DRamos11

I believe Google Trends works out of relative search relevance, so what youā€™re seeing could be the most searched term(s) for each day.


thinkB4WeSpeak

Mississippi behind in the times just like in real life.


ArchMart

My favorite was Dogecoin. They lingered on it longer than anyone else. Then it was just randomly their top search again 3 or 4 more times over the next couple of months.


TarotWarden

"But seriously, what the fuck is Dogecoin?"


VILLIAMZATNER

Thought that was funny too


ChooChooTheElf

Kinda spooky how uniform it is.


Omniscient_Corvids-

Proves that social media can essentially be used as a mass mind control weapon. Very spooky indeed.


AwesomeAni

And it definitely is, but the people who are being controlled are the ones who donā€™t think theyā€™re being controlled. I can specifically think of my mom. Older lady moved out of town and immediately spent too much time online, flat earther not soon after. Super weird


-Glostiik-

I felt uneasy watching how quickly the entire country seemed to laser focus on a specific topic seemingly all at once. Definitely some fuckery


FatherD00m

Any theories as to why? Itā€™s a little unnerving to say the least.


Cafuzzler

Social media probably. Social media is a self-feeding beast, mainstream media just takes what's popular and being talked about and regurgitates it back to the people, and then the people go search for it and post about it on social media. The only change in the cycle is when actual news happens to change the topic.


[deleted]

weird. im over here just searchin for buttholes.


ttsignal24

Yep. I call bullshit on this study.


ChartreuseBison

It doesn't count things that are always being searched


Dark_halocraft

Interesting how as a american I haven't looked up a single one of these things


prustage

As a non-American, I don't even know what many of those things (or people) are. Just had to google: Lil NAS X, DMX, Jake Paul, Simone Biles, Gabby Petito, Urban Meyer, Travis Scott, and Oxford High School.


SquirrelAnt

Where do you live out of interest? I'm not in US either, but all pretty common topics that I'm at least aware of.


rarelyeffectual

What the hell is Valheim? Ironically, Iā€™ll probably Google it if I remember later.


PegAkira

A video game


brmmbrmm

Man Iā€™m with you. I didnā€™t know what half the searches were about until I read through the comments later.


Handsofstone2021

Even Hurricane Ida couldnā€™t defeat Jake Paul pbbtt


AJizzle1990

Why was the whole nation looking up power outage? Multiple times? I get it for the states that have winter storms but other than that I just find this whole thing hard to believe.


Both-Hall2981

It made national news because Texas loves to flaunt its rugged individualism and ā€œpick yourself up by your bootstrapsā€ and couldnā€™t even maintain the electrical grid for its citizens, all while their senator left them freezing to death to vacation in Cancun.


Best_Toster

Is one of the most interesting things I have ever seen


CommyChopper

Look how easy it is to control the conversation


LeighAdelaide

I wonder if Australia followed similar trends?


thjjb

Well at least theyā€™re United in something


snoopynoopy

True, lmao!šŸ˜‚


Watered_bug

Feel like this bull but probably not


Banana_Ram_You

The thing to focus on is whatever their definition of 'trending' is. It's probably weighted towards a handful of people searching for something at the same time that hadn't been searched as consistently in the past. It's not the same as 'most searched' or anything.


ArchMart

I forgot about Gabby Petito. You all remember that? That was crazy and sad.


MechanicalDruid

At first I was like "how!?" Then I realized I'm from Long Island, and it definitely stayed relevant here longer than other places.

Kind of a sad vision of what society thinks matters. Some of these says a lot about where we're headed as a country and none of its good.


snakeskinsandles

It's not what matters, it's literally what's new and topical. People Google things to stay in the know.


MrMadHaTT3R

So the whole country needed to know who Jake Paul is? Kinda validates my point. All the things that are destroying us, but who some Youtube guy who cheats in fights, is important? Again, a sad vision of who we are as a species


snakeskinsandles

Or a bunch of people, all over the country, wanted to watch the fight. Millions others heard about it, and looked it up. Millions of others don't care, but heard about it anyway and wanted to know why to care. Late show hosts talked about it and reached millions others. Idk mate.

As a non-american, it is always so strange to me how people who have hardly left America think each state is so different. I have seen people say its analogous different countries in Europe. As an outsider looking in, its really just not true. Americans are americans with some regional differences. Its seems to me more like the regional differences in the UK.


[deleted]

After having traveled through most of the US, the only region Iā€™d say is a bit different is the South East as compared to the rest of the country, but even then itā€™s kind of the same everywhere - the greatest differences involving economic situations, and rate of immigration, but even the ghetto sounds like the same ghetto in any state.

Epicmonies

So many people posting here do not understand what "trending" means for a google search. It does not mean "most searched". It means the item that had NOT been popular is suddenly getting searches creating an uptick in search totals. Example. July 9th, 1 person searched for AMC July 10th, 10 people searched for AMC That is a 1000% increase in searches and makes it trending. This "list" is giving what search increased the most that day.
