Split search

They call it a filter bubble, because you search conservative or liberal on Google, it will show you more conservative or liberal results, which will make even more filtering to the left or right.
This search engine will search both left and right filter bubbles and show you a comparison of the results.
Even if you search for something mundane like apple, you will get different results.
