Why does google and other search show a false concensus?

first the fact from a study in 2020

Why does google and other search show a false concensus?

but if you search for sahara desert shrinking or sahel shrink, it will IGNORE your search terms and show you 7/10 results sahara "growing" which is false as we see in the hard to find study! or it used the word shrinking... sahara grow and something else shrink!

if i just show a sceeenshot of 7 "desert grow" people will say "you remember wrong and no such thing" so i gotta start with the screenshot.

i dare you! search for sahel shrink or sahara shrink.

it will show, even for "sahel shrink" the opposite: sahara grow! or many climate change or sahel crisis or conflict... even to ignore search terms!

but why is google trying and succeeding to fool you and everyone?
