Honest to goodness, this sounds like a cross between something out of 1984 and a Monty Python sketch. Do these rubes realize how silly they sound?

You probably dared to post the video of the white SUV driven by the Biden campaign staffer swerving into the Trump supporters pickup truck, following behind the Biden/Harris bus in Texas.

Their narrative was the pickup truck "rammed" the SUV, when the video clearly showed the SUV pull into the truck's lane on top of the pickup.

However, in Facebook-fantasyland, you're missing "context".

I reckon they haven’t caught up to me, yet.

I’ve been plastering that [and lots of other anti-Pedo Joe stuff] non-stop.

When they “fact check” me, I just make a screen cap of it and post that along with whatever I put up and we all laugh about it.

They actually think we’re listening to their crap.

Social media "fact checkers" ??? Ha! More like "guardians of the leftist messaging" or "agenda re-enforcement department."

This guy nails it re: "fact checkers."

Facebook ‘fact checked’ my post about Hnter B!den that showed him in bed with a crack pipe.

They said it was “mostly false”.

And when I clicked on the link to find out why, it said it was a “Meth Pipe”

That’s some solid fact checking. A crack pipe and a meth pipe are the same thing- did they call and ask him if he was smoking crack or meth?

Remember previous threads

Facebook hires Chinese Nationals to fact check.

All fact-checkers who partner with Facebook must be signatories of the International Fact-Checking Network and follow their Code of Principles.

This is the modern equivalent of paying the fee and having your name printed in “Who’s Who”.

The “fact-checkers” are “FAKE-checkers”. Censorship is such an anti-American move by these globalist leftist losers. If you get “fact-checked”...ridicule-post them. What pathetic losers. If they throw you off...who cares?

Contrary to popular opinion, fact checking is a necessary societal function. However, fact checking is ultimately up to the courts.

A libel lawsuit is a plea to a court to fact check published material which, the plaintiff claims, is false and damages the plaintiff’s reputation.

We need more of that kind of fact checking - a half-century after the Sullivan decision which inhibits libel suits by Republican (Democrats don’t get libeled) officials, the MSM (which existed even back then) has completely gone ballistic.

I think they just plain deleted the whole thing! I don’t recall exactly what it was - just that it WAS about the Biden bus. I was just a respondent. I don’t recall exactly what I said. I gather they basically told everyone on the thread they have been censored!

This box didn’t even link to the thing, and I have no way of finding it...so I guess they probably just deleted all!

Exactly.

They posted USAToday.

And they write it up as if it’s FACT that Biden’s bus was “terrified” and “maybe run off the road”.

THAT is what really ticks me off!

How do they know these leftists aren’t liars or overreactive lily-livered wimps?
