Le duke Posted October 14, 2023 Share Posted October 14, 2023 now do biden's bro david byrd. Are you drunk? David Byrd? From Tango & Cash? Or, is this clown trying and failing to reference Robert Byrd? The US Senator from West Virginia?The one time Klan leader who had a “come to Jesus” moment, changed just about everything he once believed in, and received the highest possible rating from the NAACP?

I never understood people’s problem with fact checking, other than those are the people that are really much more interested in the narrative than the truth. Can there be any other reason someone would have a problem with other people seeking out to see if something is actually true? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bigbrog Posted October 14, 2023 Share Posted October 14, 2023 I just find it humorous that people use "fact checked" websites for their truth and then swear by it. I have used them before as a point of my information gathering on a topic but by no means are they the be all of everything "true". I found that most of the sites use indirect things to prove or disprove things..ex, "Biden wasn't telling the truth because he said that thing happened on a Wed when in fact it happened on a Tue', when the day of the week had nothing to do with the topic...or the "fact checkers" take things out of context. It was really bad on CNN for Trump and Covid crap. Oh and the irony of people trying to bash others about just believing everything they read on the internet, then prove they are right by saying they used a "fact checking" website...can't make this stuff up 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a slogan that white power groups have adopted and use as one of their primary slogans today. If you were to go to the Stormfront site, which is a hub for white power groups, the slogan is all over the place. Not their rallies too. You'll see many wearing those shirts. So, pair Off Thr Mat's words with the use of that slogan, which she uses, and then tell me which conclusion that one should draw.

Ban Basketball Posted October 14, 2023 Share Posted October 14, 2023 As should be the case with any adequately informed public, I can read through a factcheck claim and immediately be able to determine its ttuthfulness. In the case of Biden being a segregationist, it was clearly documented as false. My ten year old grandsons, who are sharp anyway, could determine that from the story.

Plasmodium Posted October 14, 2023 Share Posted October 14, 2023 Of course most are not a member of either group, but interesting groups are gelling on the right nonetheless. One believes anything and they very much will themselves to do so. The other believes nothing apart from their own narrative. The latter group learns nothing new.
