They dont get fact checked except by themselves. Thats the whole point of their agenda. They were set up to do that, they didnt become authoritative. It became too formulaic and they were set up for a purpose.. to take over what "was" (no room for questioning here) "the "facts".. kind of like how slavery was set up, and how the wto was set up to become the "rules of the global economy" take it or leave it or get out. --- Quote from: tszaboo on April 29, 2022, 11:11:27 am --- --- Quote from: dunkemhigh on April 29, 2022, 10:40:34 am --- --- Quote ---for source verification.. by fsct checker sites --- End quote --- Who fact checks the fact checkers? Seriously. At the last election there were 'fact checking' websites run by one side or the other to a) confirm whatever that party wanted to push, and b) diss the other side's claims. --- End quote --- As I hear, people who do fact checking have burnout problems faster than the average JS programmer. --- End quote --- |

Even experts aren't 100% certain of the facts, which has often been the case over the pandemic. Official bodies often get it wrong, or only accept facts which support their policies/agenda. I'm very skeptical when only one narrative is accepted to be true, by the mainstream media. --- End quote --- A dedicated effort to buy up newspapers in the 1980s and 1990s made jobs for journalists very very scarce, in the US. This was quite intentional and coincided with an attempt to take over the world of trade, with the WTO Services Agreement, which was bound to result in the demise of a great many jobs.. . which they claimed would be offset by higher profits.. But for whom? |

--- Quote from: dunkemhigh on April 27, 2022, 05:42:49 pm --- --- Quote ---Otherwise, people could just vote whatever they wanted to happen. --- End quote --- Very unlikely, unfortunately. Or perhaps luckily, given what some people want! The problem is you can't vote for a single thing. Well, you can, but doing so drags along several pages full of other manifesto commitments, many of which you might prefer to vote against in preference to the thing you want to vote for. There is also the small problem of not being able to vote for something that isn't on offer. If, for instance, neither of the main parties in the UK say they will ban excessive profits from motorway service stations then no-one will be able to vote for that regardless of who they align behind. --- End quote --- They dont want to ever ban "excessive profits" for anything.. On "principle". Because to them, no profits are ever excessive, since people enter into contract of their free voilition. Thyey can enter into the deal, or do without, whatever, forever. Do without food, or without water, under some circumstances slavery is still legal. If you steal anything. Can you see why? Read up on Churchill's Bengal famine. On Principle, no profits are ever "excessive". They simply are profits. Large ones. Sometimes people sell themselves into slavery, to eat. Sound userious? Sure, but... What does this tell you about the future they are planning for us all? I realized when I was pretty young how extreme a future some of our people felt was their entitlement. Why do people fail to understand why some people are buying up all the farmland and housing they can? |

--- Quote from: rsjsouza ---IMHO the only reliable authoritative source is indeed research done by oneself --- End quote --- Which means what? How do you research stuff yourself? All you can do, unless you are omnipresent, is read/watch/listen someone elses research. We're going round in circles here, not actually zeroing in on anything. |
