Yes - whenever I see or hear the words “fact check”, I know that I can immediately stop reading or listening right there.

Most “Fact checkers” are sponsored by Soros, Zuckerberg and other far left billionaires or by left wing outfits like the New York Times.
Conservatives need to set up our own fact checkers. Before the elections in November.
To: E. Pluribus Unum
Every “fact checker” does nothing but provide a left-wing opinion about something.

The Fact
Cheka: arresting facts without charges, holding secret trials in underground prisons, executing them and burying their bodies in unmarked graves since 1917.

Fact checkers employed by the Ministry of Propaganda is still just propaganda.

What do we use to test the truth? What should we use to test the truth.
There's really no substitute for your own independent experienced brain.

So according to her, what exactly is the touch stone to test the truth? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Touchstone_%28assaying_tool%29
What do we use to test the truth?
What should we use to test the truth.
IT'S NOT THEIR JOB TO "TEST THE TRUTH!!!"
That's what the First Amendment is all about!!!

If they want to “test the truth” they are legally a publisher and can be sued for content.
If they don’t “test the truth” they are legally a platform and can’t be sued for content.
But they want it both ways.

It has been my experience that I have a pretty good ability to lie to myself.....................
But I understand your point, always test.
The truth is a rare commodity.
define truth, define rare, define commodity.

Fact Check is a tell. Letting me know someone is ready to lye to me. e.g. Biden won the 2020 election. YouTube told me so.
Thanks anyway Sheryl.

I am not the least bit confused by fact checkers. I pay them no mind whatsoever.

My ex-best friend chose a left-wing fact check opinion about the Georgia election theft over our friendship.

We Report,Here is the narrative. We can't report the other side of the argument because following our policy of no providing disinformation we fact checked it and discovered that it has been debunked.
