I wonder how "facts" would go over with these folks if presented? Facts about crime? Facts about energy? Facts about the economy? etc., etc.

The fact that one of the questions was about Trump suggests a distinct possibility of confirmation bias in this study. The study is probably intended to confirm the biases of those doing the study.

Well there was that “dark” speech Trump gave. 🙄

The Russia-hoax and catastrophic-AGW believers fit the mold quite nicely.

"Some people believe fake news even when the scientific facts clearly contradict them," I want to see examples --
"The fact is, Carbon dioxide is a deadly pollutant. Why don't you believe the science?"
"The fact is, climate change is real. Why don't you believe the science?"
"The fact is, the COVID vaccine has saved billions of lives. Why don't you believe the science?"
"The fact is, Donald Trump is a poopy-head. Why don't you believe the science?"

Scientific FACT: Your biological sex is determined by your feelings at the moment, and/or peer pressure/parents desire to virtue signal.

" . . . and how much they assume that politics, science and the media "fabricate" facts according to their interests."
Are they saying that recognizing media bias and political bias is some kind of character flaw or psychological abnormality?

Talk about bending facts!
“”People with dark personality traits bend reality to their own liking. For example: I don’t wear a mask because the coronavirus was just invented by the media anyways,” Rudloff explains. “Bending the facts based on selfish motives works especially well when people are convinced that there are no independent scientific facts anyway.”

More stupid Fake news.
It is the ‘decent’ people that are more susceptible to fake news. People good at heart, trusting, unable to accept conspiracies, fraud or criminal behavior from those in power, typically the elderly that have a more innate respect for institutions.
Those people are the most vulnerable to con artists and they are also the most vulnerable to be manipulated by biased news, using ‘facts’ to convince them.
A typical example is this garbage of a post expressing the opinions of an ‘expert’ in Germany

Exactly.
This is the old Soviet playbook. If you don’t agree with the Party, you are insane or evil. Or both.

This piece represents the ultimate in leftist psychobabble. They always present their findings as science, which it is anything but.
If we were to accept the premise that disagreement with the leftist agenda is a “dark personality trait”, then some of the article might be true. But we don’t accept that.
Therefore it is utterly false. It is merely another attempt to frame-up people who live in the real world as being wicked impediments to utopian progress (as they define it).

Rather than show why proposition X is true, they instead implicitly assume X is true and then focus on explaining what is wrong with people that think X is false.
Take away implicit assumptions and their epistemology would have no grounds left.

People who deny the existence of facts believe in fake news more often. Sounds tautological.
