Popular fact-checking site Snopes.com confirmed Wednesday they are debuting a new "Factually inaccurate but morally right" fact check result for claims they don't want to debunk because they coincide with Snopes editors' worldview.

Good satire tends to be too close to the truth...
I haven’t looked at their checklist but I imagine one entry is:
“Marxism has all the answers” — factually inaccurate, but morally right. Just ask the 100 million people who disagreed.
“Fake but accurate”.
Are they using Christian Morals as the standard?
“Good satire tends to be too close to the truth...”
AOC has actually used her version of morals trumping the truth. It’s how this little commie and the SJW are getting around traditional culture and enacted law.
Is this not essentially what Eric Holder testified about regarding telling lies: It is not a lie if you believe it to be right?
What kind of BS is this? There ought to be a jail cell set aside for these creeps.
Even though this is satire, this is the way postmodernist leftards think. They believe that universal moral principles must be eradicated and reverence for leftard social and cultural values inculcated. And leftard values reject the traditional absolutes and foundations of morality, which leaves subjectivism, relativism, and arbitrariness.
Exactly. This article is satire but its exactly what these phony Lib “fact checking” sites do. Well, maybe we didn’t get the facts right, but its true in a larger sense since we all just know that Trump, Christians and conservatives are greedy, evil, hypocritical racists who laugh when poor people starve.
...for claims they don't want to debunk because they coincide with Snopes editors' worldview.
Heh... Glad I didn't take that seriously enough to post before reading the rest. A little too believable. Thanks Tench_Coxe.
