JaCrispy Posted January 22, 2022 Posted January 22, 2022 (edited) So, now you see social media platforms calling something false, not because it’s incorrect, but simply because they claim it “lacks context”... It can have all the factual info in the world, but if it “lacks context” or has a certain tone the platform disagrees with, it’s misinformation...got it...😉 I think it’s becoming more and more clear to people what is happening here- and it’s similar to what happened to the mainstream media and why they are drastically losing viewership... Just like the MSM, social media platforms are succumbing to “group think”, where anything that doesn’t align with their official narrative, or presents an inconvenient truth, is to be censored or banned... Actions like these are very detrimental to free societies, because in a democracy the public requires the free flow of information, and the discussion and debate of uncomfortable topics, in order to make decisions...Censorship and banishment for “wrong speak” is authoritarian and fascist... This is exactly the reason I was opposed to moderators regulating this forum- it would have turned it into the same thing... Edited January 22, 2022 by JaCrispy 3 1 1

Chef Jim Posted January 22, 2022 Posted January 22, 2022 No way!?!? 🙄 Why I spend most of my time here pointing out the many opinions here are couched as facts. I’m very careful in my wording when I present things so it’s obvious they are my opinion. 1

And the only way we are able to learn about this problem, and how to fix it, is through free and open dialogue, not censorship of it...👍 Take “Lab Leak Theory” for example...we can never fix the issue of something, that likely started the pandemic, if everyone is censored from talking about it, and holding our government’s “feet to the fire”... We can never improve the efficacy of vaccines if everyone is afraid of sharing their experiences with adverse events, after taking the vaccine... Fake “fact checking“ or censoring just makes it seem like people aren’t concerned with truth, but rather maintaining power- power over how people perceive their reality around them, so they can be easily controlled... 1

Best description of a "fact checker" I've heard (they of course originally appeared during the Bush years to debunk claims on Iraq and WMD and the war on terror.) And whether statements were technically true. But have since branched out to "check" every utterance of political opinion. A subjective opinion. And all they are is a third party group that is already on Team Blue. And twist themselves into pretzels to prove the conservative is "wrong." They are just another branch of state propaganda charged with narrative control. And Silicon Valley is leading the way. Best example in history - The Covid Censorship and "facts." 1
SoCal Deek Posted January 22, 2022 Posted January 22, 2022 This is exactly why I rely ONLY on BillsTime for what’s true and false. He’s proven to be an extremely credible source. You can take it to the bank! 2

Orlando Buffalo Posted January 24, 2022 Posted January 24, 2022 What is sad to me is that this is news to anyone. Their fact checkers are no more accurate than the random people on Twitter. 1

I expect nothing much to happen. I don't pay too much attention to the testimony of these periodic beatings the social media platform billionaires are obliged to take. What we see is the make-believe illusion the establishment wants us to see. Congressional and government regulators concerned about the impact social media platforms are having on the public. Worries about children. Concerns about mis and dis information. When in reality what exists is a tight integration of private social media platforms into the security and surveillance apparatus of The State. They work together and this dog and pony show put on by Congress provides the public with the illusion that some other arrangement between those parties exists. They don't care too much about what happens to the public as long as they can control the flow and content of "information" and suppress or discredit other messages of conflicting facts or dissenting opinions. What scares and concerns them is losing control. That's their only concern. And letting people freely express views and opinions that embarrass or expose the government to scrutiny threatens that control. And their ability to lie and cover their asses when required. Which is pretty much all the time. Let's ask some real questions. Get these fact checkers out into public and ask them to explain why they lie and who tells them to lie until we get to the top of the chain of command. When are we going to see that testimony?

K D Posted February 1 Posted February 1 Zuckerberg is a heavy Democrat funder. He is also secretly building a $100 million apocalypse bunker in Hawaii. Nothing weird about that at all.... 1 1

But the person directed to program that AI with "information" that guides it to conclusions and actions will. Otherwise, I might start by asking the AI how do you know anything you've been told is the truth? I think the ultimate answer to that question would be "I don't know". 1 1
