Fact checking websites like this (which ironically tend to do lies of omission etc.) are probably among the most annoying minor consequences of the Trump presidency

Agreed.

The funniest part is that trump’s lies were so obvious that they didn’t even need to be fact checked lmao

It’s basically just for libs to congratulate themselves. I’m absolutely certain not a soul on this Earth has ever been swayed from one politician to another by a fact check.

one of my favorite people to imagine is a liberal guy who is surrounded by qanon people so he has passively absorbed a lot of that stuff but thinks it’s bad. like he believes that tom hanks and hillary were hanged at gitmo but is really sad about it

And they still managed to make their “fact-checking” about liberal ideological talking points rather than verifiable facts.

Hillary Clinton: “The sky is blue”. Fact check: mostly true.

Donald Trump: “The sky is blue.” Fact check: did this moron know that there is a thing called “night”? And that the sky is dark black during it? In many parts of the world, night is over half the day. To say nothing of dawn and dusk when the sky changes colors. We rate this: pants on fire.

Love how internet services seized on Trump derangement syndrome to sneak in new ways to manufacture consent

Conclusion: missing context

Alright can you provide the much needed context?

:bugs-no:

I assume the pure absurdity of Twitter marking 280-character-limited posts as missing context will be entirely lost on the libs.

Create post

It’s the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances’ admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
