BOMBSHELL: In court filing, Facebook admits ‘fact checks’ are nothing more than opinion

"Facebook has admitted in a court of law that such fact checks are not factual at all, but merely opinions. People send me stuff. As we have previously reported, journalist John Stossel is suing Facebook after Facebook’s ‘fact checkers’ labeled climate change information that Stossel posted as 'false and misleading'. In the middle of all this is the nefarious website 'Climate Feedback' which has a bunch of climate zealots that write up what they claim are 'fact checks' for articles, videos, and news stories they disagree with. Facebook just blew the 'fact check' claim right out of the water in court."

Well then - change their disclaimers to: “This contains material we don’t want to you know, according to independent left wing opinion makers at Facebook.”

“Google’s YouTube Meddles In French Election, Slaps Age Restriction On Presidential Candidate Zemmour’s Campaign Video”

...and yet these countries continue to permit YouTube and others to operate there. China, to their credit, has figured it out.

Of course they do — they are Derpers, and their social media shills do as they’re told, like referring to politicians as “extreme right-wing” and “racist”.

When the Factchecker talks to a science topic, and you examine their resume....to find they are mostly just a journalist...you can dump the ‘facts’ given.

I’m still waiting on factcheckers to arrive on sports, horse-racing, and pro-boxing.

This won’t be news until they are renamed as opinion maker!

I have never been to F-Book as I long learned that there is ‘no there there’! What I point out to others who are ‘believers’ is that a source of their opinions is a company mired deep in financial fraud, who trolls 1st source news accounts without verification / validation and has lost many lawsuits for misstatement of facts. Yet F-Book is happy to rely upon te SPLC!
