• Elon Musk torches House Jan. 6 committee for 'misleading the public,' withholding evidence: 'deeply wrong'

  I just want to let you know that your snopes.com source states that Kamala Harris was supporting peaceful protests, and that she hate denounced violence. Will you update your post to show that the quote was misleading? Source: about 1 year ago

• Mike Pollock is a goat

  There was a time where he was sharing videos from superspyguy some one told him he shouldnt promote him because a couple women came forward and he was sexually harassing women and was a pedophile. Mikes response was "aaah the internet" and how he doesnt believe things like this unless theyre from snopes.com or other trusted sources because people all get together and ruin reputations all the time, and from his...

• CMV: I don't think any information is trustworthy because no one knows what information is influenced by propaganda and what isn't.

  How do you know though? Well how do you know? A good place to start is factcheck.org, politifact.com, and snopes.com. Getting your news from Reuters.com and apnews.com is a good bet. Especially since the AP is kinda the default source. And it is what cable news uses for many stories it then spins to fit its own agendas.. Source: over 1 year ago

• Mike Pollock the Eggman on smoke💀

  Hes said some pretty awful things to people who fancast tom kenny as a classic eggman or do their own voice for a fan work of eggman. Heck he even defended sonic insanity/dillin for being an abusive lolicon saying that victims like to group up and make people look bad and he only believes victims with legal proof like snopes.com?

• Which is it Republicans?

  Factcheck.org, snopes.com, mediaite, and 538 are all politically partisan organizations that anyone with a brain knows not to trust considering how much propaganda the push. They intentionally false frame stories and disprove narratives that no one stated. They literally inject a ton of false information into the articles and fail to provide actual real context.

• How do you start up to date on news?

  Mostly r/worldnews as a delta hub for everything and then I check the sources individually through mediabiasfactcheck.com and secondary sources. APnews, The Atlantic, BBC, Reuters, NYT, and a couple of German publications such as TAZ or SZ have a good rep when it comes to reporting, but clickbaity titles are everywhere nonetheless. Several political neutral sources drifted off into a more biased reporting style... Source: over 1 year ago

• What project are you working on?

  But something I wanted to write... I like to apply the argument of laziness to situations where my Dad quotes some anonymous source on the internet. I mean, I love the internet, but I don't know what we can do about misinformation. That stuff can make one anxious and depressed, and desiring to feel active, like they have to accomplish something, or they jump out of their skin. Kinda like smoking. I love websites...

• to make a good argument, just to sound really racist at the end.

  I assert your post is biased because you have made tons of posts in this thread saying that the history.com article is a biased source, when you could have spent 10 seconds searching Google and found hundreds of sources that couldn't all be biased, as well as snopes.com's page about it, which is a website who's entire job is to be unbiased as fark.
