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

"Some people believe fake news even when the scientific facts clearly contradict them," says psychologist Jan Philipp Rudloff. There is almost no difference between a psychologist and a witch doctor.
Except the witch doctor may accidentally do some good.
Phrenology used to be "science". Settled science at that.

People who deny the existence of facts believe in fake news more often. This obviously includes anyone who can't define "woman".

50 'intelligence' thugs signed a published letter stating that Hunter's laptop had all the earmarks of Russian Disinformation... Most on our side knew the 50 'intelligence' thugs were lying - but every democrat I've known - (and seemingly all the MSM) - fell for the lie.
Dark is right. It's why democrats are so comfortable lying - they know their base... gullible and dark.

"People with dark personality traits"
So like this "Dark Brandon" thing that the left thinks qualifies as a meme?"

“Dark personality traits make people susceptible to fake news”
I know one thing for sure. Dark personality traits sure make it lot more likely for them to report fake news.

In other words, the beliefs of people who are difficult to govern are fake.

Discernment is the critical element not addressed by the author.
Placing a label on a statement is not the determinate of the validity of the statement.
Rather, it is how the statement is measured and tested, as well as the observer's ability to understand the results, that matters.

Afterwards, they filled out a comprehensive questionnaire. Among other things, the participants were asked to indicate how much they trust their gut feeling when evaluating the accuracy of information, how important solid evidence is to them and how much they assume that politics, science and the media "fabricate" facts according to their interests. This would be valid ONLY if there were not so many fabricated "facts" in circulation.

That article is mind boggling, and not in a good way. Laughable that some effort was spent writing it.
