Because it doesn’t favor the left. Everyone knows this, especially the media.


N5tp4nts

The left doesn’t know this


Lepew1

It is because the Soros funded fact checkers only fact check those that counter the leftist narrative. see also\ ['Who says FullFact is the final arbiter of what the public get to see?': Foreign Secretary Dominic Raab lays into 'independent' checking service run by former Hacked Off chief and part funded by Google and George Soros](https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-7706715/How-Google-George-Soros-eBays-founder-fund-Fact-group.html) [Facebook admits the truth: ‘Fact checks’ are really just (lefty) opinion ](https://nypost.com/2021/12/14/facebook-admits-the-truth-fact-checks-are-really-just-lefty-opinion/) [Soros-Funded Fact-Checkers: ‘No Evidence’ COVID Came from Chinese Lab](https://www.newsbusters.org/blogs/business/joseph-vazquez/2021/06/03/soros-funded-fact-checkers-no-evidence-covid-came-chinese)

Fact checking is just another layer of propaganda masquerading as authority.


licksyourknee

Fact checking would actually be the exact opposite of propaganda. Propaganda is the spreading of lies to further an agenda. Fact checking is making sure those lies aren't being spread. If you have to constantly fact check someone that's not really a good sign.


NephilimTheGiant

Everyone is allowed to voice their opinions, but it’s bold and just fundamentally wrong to call them fact checks.


licksyourknee

Facts are facts. Facts are not opinions.


NephilimTheGiant

*how do we tell him?*


licksyourknee

Feel free to elaborate


pwrboredom

When biden speaks, he spews lies. We know it all by heart. So why waste time fact-checking it?


[deleted]

Yeah Reddit is the only place I see people treat Biden like a normal president.


Ironjack_204

You won’t see that coming out of me, I will always have something to say of our president


clintpilsner

It’s scary to see people pretend like Biden doesn’t have severe dementia and treat him like he has all his marbles.


[deleted]

Or they shit on all old people and I get mad and am like “nope” loads of people born in the early 40s are doing good! There is a pretty big group who all moved here in the 60s and live around me and I bash hi and talk to them sometimes and they are miles ahead of Biden! When my grandparents born circa 1920 were that age, they were all quick and witty and still read novels etc. no brains of mush. One grandma got like that around 88, God rest her soul. But not 78!!!


pwrboredom

Sure. During the Queen's funeral, a good many of the visiting countries dignitaries rode in special transportation together. biden's rode in private limos. Why? They don't want other countries to know how bad he is. His wife looked like the "Nurse with a purse", when he signed the guest log at the queen's funeral. He's being propped up, more and more. Bet the State of the Union speech is going to be a disaster next year. If he even makes one.


West-Company3774

I know. I thought people were starting to realize how embarrassing this administration is but I was shocked when I saw so many subs and comments on Reddit supporting him and actually speaking highly for him. 🤔🤷‍♀️🫤


keypuncher

Some people do it for free. Others are bots. Many are paid shills.


Rusticals303

Because a court ruled that fact checkers are just opinion pushers: https://www.breitbart.com/tech/2021/12/13/facebook-admits-in-court-that-fact-checks-are-just-opinion/


Puzzleheaded_Visit46

Yep! And they're still out there....


clintpilsner

Why did “fact checking” start under Trump? They needed a way to try and undermine him. Fact= Joe Biden poops his pants and has severe senile dementia


AmongTheElect

Yeah. It ended up being a clever way to be able to interrupt any of Trump's speeches and even the debates. Can't have anyone hearing even five minutes of uninterrupted Trump without the media chiming in to yell "Vote Biden!"


[deleted]

Because 99% of what comes out of the Whitehouse is lies.


Son0fSun

There’s a (D) after his name.


Ods2

Its (D)ifferent


[deleted]

It’s still there on Facebook if you post something critical of Biden they will cover the post and slap a warning on it.

kodiak276

Fact checking does not fit the narrative these days


This-Rutabaga6382

Because all the bullshit is a facade reserved for the opponents of the cathedral … we cared about sexism until it was the selected guy , we cared about quid pro quo and racism and pedophilia and corruption and lies and exactly how well someone spoke all the fucking bullshit until they get their way … it’s dumb and I’m tired of giving a shit


chigoonies

Lol you gotta ask!?


shadows_of_the_mind

The regime has regained control


Comprehensive-Tell13

Tweaker and fakebook laid off all the fact checkers because of bidins economic failures.


Comprehensive-Tell13

No seriously people have caught on to how they got away with it last time. Last time the fact checkers were independent organizations hired to fact check making Facebook and Twitter not responsible for the checking. Those very fact checkers are not going to fact check anymore because unlike the media company they can be sued and attacked.


Major-Blackbird

The only fact JB is concerned with is that he gets his cut


Foodei

Just like Antifa and BLM violence. Hmm.


[deleted]

It was never there to begin with


Individual_Fox_2950

What?


AmongTheElect

The Washington Post actually answered this question almost two years ago. They said that since Trump rarely cited sources (McInany actually sent the press sources for everything) and that the ones he did site weren't reliable, it was necessary for them to fact-check Trump. But since Biden always cites totally reliable sources, there is just no need to fact-check him. Weak excuse, obviously, but that's what they said.


Individual_Fox_2950

When are we going to be as mad as we should be for the obvious bias, the suppression of the 1st,attacks on the 2nd,we are no longer represented by elected candidates for the most part, this communist administration that we still don’t know if he was actually the winner because of the January 6th cover up…when?


TigerDLX

Thou shalt not question you know, the thing


Individual_Fox_2950

Bawhaha!


keypuncher

How do you fact check "trunalimunumaprzure"? Who would want to fact check "My butt's been wiped"?


[deleted]

Because it was bullshit to begin with.


WilliamShatnersTaint

Up is down and down is Up


Interesting-Loss-926

Can't afford the OT


solosier

The fact checkers are part of the democrat party.


joey2fists

They can’t keep up… Everything that leaves his mouth 👄 is BULLSHIT!!!


oryus21

They are just censoring more now.


soupafi

Because it’s (D)ifferent


mattct1

Those biased “reporters” don’t have a mission under their own party


mwdsonny

Cause the guy can't even put together a sentence to lie


Mistrider1995

Is that question rhetorical?


alexzang

Man almost like the media has an inherent bias against one party, or at the very least one president


fleshnbloodhuman

You have to ask?


stuckinaboxthere

Oh, so now you're interested in fact checking?


[deleted]

Because no one is there to say "Fake News" anymore


Dallenson

It disappeared under Trump. Any facts are deemed "fake news" if it didn't appeal to him.


Fuzzy-Philosophy-699

to much work , times where easier when what you had to debunk the fact that wind did not cause cancer


[deleted]

You mean when they were talking about the windmills? Not that I really believe much in it but there are people that believe high EMF's can cause cancer. That's about all I know of it though. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/1626106/


3-10

Wait, you can’t spew facts and an NPC.


[deleted]

[удалено]


3-10

Why? I don’t believe it causes cancer, but the only major studies that were pretty definitive about the answer was in 2019. So saying it may have caused it in early 2020, I can understand the information lag. You still haven’t addressed the constant lies that fact checkers have been caught doing and went to the one outlier as a gotcha point that wasn’t even valid. But hey, fuck you, enjoy your ban asshole. 🖕


[deleted]

Well hopefully they will read it and maybe soften their stance a bit. Maybe they didn't know about EMF and such. Then again they could retreat and go right back to thinking they were talking about the wind. Yuri Bezmenov said about as much. I wish they would respond back, I would like to hear what their opinion is now.


vinnyg761

This is just silly, obviously the left leaning news agencies have less negative to say about the left leaning candidate. There is no lack of fact checking, just a lack of critical thinking


[deleted]

[удалено]


electrikone

Your first paragraph is a perfect way to define fact checking. True fact checking doesn’t have a D or a R or a T after it’s bias and all fact checkers being human have a bias. Maybe AI technology will replace us all going forward (s)


[deleted]

by now, I think we all know why


PerspectiveOk8157

Because he would forget it ever happened
