'fact checkers'
Snopes should be de-platformed. At once very useful; now politicized and useless.
Just more proof the Fascist LEFT does not have a sense of humor, just hate all the time.
BB is satire but because so much of the FAKE NEWS sounds just like them big tech wants to censor them.
Maybe they should organize to deplatform Snopes. The Bee calls itself “satire”, not pretending to be factual, while Snopes goes through considerable effort to disguise its propaganda as a dispassionate, unbiased presentation of facts.
“We’re not sure if fanning the flames of controversy and muddying the details of a news story classify an article as ‘satire,’”
They never watched John Stewart, or Saturday Night Live?
“did not rise to the level of satire”
Anyone have a copy of Potemkin’s “Objectively Measuring Degrees of Disinformation” handy?
Everyone knows what is really going on here.
Babylon Bee satirizes the left.
There. It has been said.
Because BB mocks the left, lefties in silicon valley want to silence and censor them, because they are a gateway for such powers in these crazy times where political discourse (by only one side) is somehow is allowed to fall under “election influence”.
Meanwhile, the left controls the narrative constantly and their first amendment rights magically don’t qualify as political interference.
The only reason Snopes is following this course is because BB is Christian-themed and owned humor site.
So I guess Snopes is going after “The Onion” too right?
Snopes is one guy. He is a leftist. Disregard Snopes. They started out ok, but devolved into a left wing affirmation platform.
Isn’t all satire really just “fake news”?
Identifying satire is pretty easy. If it is a satire source, it is satire - even if it sounds legit.
How can Snopes “deplatform” the Babylon Bee? Deplatform the BB from *where*? The internet? I don’t think so. Snopes is just another leftist fake news outlet now, so one should not be surprised by their content.
The Babylon Bee is an EFFECTIVE satire of leftist thought and policy. That’s the ONLY reason they’re being targeted.
Snopes is fake news.
Babylon Bee should do an article, Snopes Claims It’s Not A Parody Site; Millions Fooled.
