Zuckerberg’s Midterm Fix: We live in an Orwellian hell-scape. Facebook is now "fact checking" anyone who questions the White House's word-games about the definition of a recession. (media.kotakuinaction2.win)

Well, they're not wrong. The White House didn't change the definition of a recession. It's still two consecutive quarters of negative GDP growth. They're simply lying when they say we're not in one.

I like that they say 'independent'. What does that mean? Someone's giving them money. How 'independent' are they?

Of course, of course the funders don't get any influence. They just don't pay you if you do not please them.

What could be more independent than PolitiFact, an organization explicitly founded to promote Democrats?

Facebook's "independent" fact checkers are all liberal activists who blatantly lie and cite to experts who they didn't actually consult. John stossel did a video on it I posted a while ago. It's a trick fb uses to contract out its censorship and launder it.

Yeah, just one more step removed from the government doing the censoring. It's all just a shell game.

You can apply the same logic to the "autonomous" Federal Reserve.

Do people really believe these "fact checking" posts? I thought it was common knowledge that "fact checker" are leftist shills.

Here is how it works: you have an article or meme or image of something that is true, you have fact checkers who say it is partially false because xyz, they write an article about why it is false. In the article they roll it back and just state due to a technicality it is false. No one will read the article and the headline of it being "misleading" will be the only thing the normie actually reads. That's how it works with fact checkers in my country at least, there's tons of examples.

It’s not about you believing anything. It’s about them censoring you.

We aren't in a recession. We are in year 14 of Great Depression 2: QE Boogaloo.

It's hard to tell from this screenshot, but is the "partly false" photo a screenshot of whitehouse.gov with a few highlights? Because that's what it looks like.

Supposedly, the "Recession" article in Wikipedia has limited user edits now.

hahaha they called his photo of whitehouse.gov "false", essentially claiming the White House is wrong.

If the Dems don’t want us to use the term recession, I say that’s fine. I’ll use economic depression instead.

It's for your own good, plebs. If we admit we're in a recession, your tiny pea-brains will take that as a cue to stop consooming, and that will make everything worse. But as long as we don't use the r-word and stop you from using it too, you will keep spending money like the mindless little drones that you are, and that's the only way to avoid an actual recession.

I wonder if they're paying goons to review every picture or if they're running everything through an OCR to detect double-plus-ungood-badthink. If it's OCR people can fuck with it by using background images and goofy fonts.

Imagine if they put a fraction of this kind of effort into naming, shaming and reporting pedos sharing child porn.

No - FuckFaceBook is the site that allows old men and women to stalk young kids. I heard its mainly for sextortion these days.
