Fact Checking the Fact Checkers

WSJ has a good piece on how ‘fact’ checkers are not concerned about truth, they are just there to spin a narrative.

A classic Æsop tale perfectly describes the situation with these so-called “fact-checkers”.


The Shepherd Boy & the Wolf
the-shepherd-boy-and-the-wolf.jpg

A Shepherd Boy tended his master's Sheep near a dark forest not far from the village. Soon he found life in the pasture very dull. All he could do to amuse himself was to talk to his dog or play on his shepherd's pipe.

.
One day as he sat watching the Sheep and the quiet forest, and thinking what he would do should he see a Wolf, he thought of a plan to amuse himself.

His Master had told him to call for help should a Wolf attack the flock, and the Villagers would drive it away. So now, though he had not seen anything that even looked like a Wolf, he ran toward the village shouting at the top of his voice, "Wolf! Wolf!"

As he expected, the Villagers who heard the cry dropped their work and ran in great excitement to the pasture. But when they got there they found the Boy doubled up with laughter at the trick he had played on them.

A few days later the Shepherd Boy again shouted, "Wolf! Wolf!" Again the Villagers ran to help him, only to be laughed at again.

Then one evening as the sun was setting behind the forest and the shadows were creeping out over the pasture, a Wolf really did spring from the underbrush and fall upon the Sheep.

In terror the Boy ran toward the village shouting "Wolf! Wolf!" But though the Villagers heard the cry, they did not run to help him as they had before. "He cannot fool us again," they said.

The Wolf killed a great many of the Boy's sheep and then slipped away into the forest.

Liars are not believed even when they speak the truth.

We have all become so accustomed to seeing these “fact-checkers” falsely tag verifiably-true stories as “false”, that if they were to ever tag a false story as such, no sane intelligent person would believe them.

Not long ago, Johns Hopkins surgeon Marty Makary published an op-ed in the Wall Street Journal which downplayed many of the worst case scenarios for Covid and projected natural herd immunity by April. This article was widely shared via social media like Facebook, who reacted by unleashing the fact checking commissars. This latest WSJ article looks at how leftist social media outlets are doing their best to ensure that debate gives way to dogma.

“…the progressive health clerisy don’t like his projection because they worry it could lead to fewer virus restrictions. The horror! Health Feedback’s fact checkers disagree with the evidence Dr. Makary cites as well as how he interprets it. Fine. Scientists disagree all the time. Much of conventional health wisdom about red meat, sodium and cardiovascular risk is still fiercely debated.

The same goes for Covid-19. There’s still much we don’t understand about the virus and its transmission and immunity. Yet Facebook’s fact-checkers “cherry-pick,” to borrow their word, studies to support their own opinions, which they present as fact.”

“Scientists often disagree over how to interpret evidence. Debate is how ideas are tested and arguments are refined. But Facebook’s fact checkers are presenting their opinions as fact and seeking to silence other scientists whose views challenge their own.”


What do Trump Humpers care about the truth.
TDS foaming at the mouth is so typical of the Left.

The WOKE has fallen mostly to this dogma. I think instead of calling them left because they really have gone far beyond left. The WOKE are unawaken fools. That are tools for the Cult.

Wow a Trump Humper accusing a group of folks of being a cult.
The Left has no position on anything until their cult leaders tell them what to think.

Trump Humpers have only ONE position and that is what ever Trump tells you.
Your TDS is hilarious.
Thread could be about floor cleaners and you’d be babbling about Trump.

What is hilarious is listening to a Trump Humper calling another group of folks a cult.
Did you know Obama is the first clean and articulate black man?
Joe said so.

Did you know Trump just walks up to women and grabs their pussy.

TDS of Leftards is hilarious. They are such mental cases. You can talk about the rookie season of Mickey Mantle and they’ll be babbling about Trump.

Davis noted that many of the so-called third-party fact-checkers are based overseas and are run by “college kids” who have the power to “shut down information” under the pretense of trying to stop the spread of false information.


As a consequence, the so-called fact-checking campaigns and censoring serve as nothing more than an “attempt to suppress narratives that are inconvenient to Big Tech.”


“So it’s actually a really kind of an Orwellian system and it’s based on the conceit that these big tech social media publishers are not publishers, because under the law, they have to pretend to be neutral third-party platforms, the way the courts have interpreted it, that gives them all kinds of ‘get out of jail free’ cards,” Davis said.


“And so what they do is, instead of censoring on their own, and taking it upon themselves, they’ll hire outside third-party fact-checkers, and they’ll say: ‘hey, you’re independent.’ And we’re just going to have you fact-check these articles that are going viral.

Stupid. If you ever took the time to actually look at a real fact check you would see that it is simply a compilation of sourced material. Videos, quotes, documents that either back up or contradict the subject in question. Look up a few of Trumps. He was a proven liar almost every day of his presidency.
