So basically you’re saying you just post stuff willey nilley without any regard to whether it’s true or false. Amazing. This is what we’re up against fellow patriots, the useful idiot class is amongst us.
Not referring specifically to this issue, you’ve been around FR to know that it is made up of all kinds of people.
Including posters that post things that are incredible.
These include the “Don’t shoot the messenger, I’m just posting this!” which sometimes refers to something incredible and dubious as to being truthful.
Or someone makes a post with a claim and then REFUSES to post a reference, and tell other FReepers to do their own research. In other words “You need to prove the claim that I made” laziness.
Or post things that are just unbelievable. Like the FReeper yesterday that posted that pictures of Afghan men running after a C-17 are fake as that was an INFLATABLE C-17 decoy in the picture. Or that NO US military were killed yesterday.

There seems to be more posts of unsubstantiated, unreferenced claims.
