    When some of your biggest enemies are fact checkers, you are likely dealing with dishonest misinformation.

    You are (inadvertently and without understanding it) correct.

    ANOTHER WIN for Conservatives -- it's like our message and stance on issues has been spot on this ENTIRE TIME.

    Shame on those of you who supported censorship and dishonesty.

    Well since I generally only post on Facebook to thank friends for birthday wishes, post pics of food I made, or pics of my stupid dog this does not mean much to me.

    I might be wrong because I never check but is Facebook a hive of political postings so much that they even needed fact checkers???

    The fact checkers were USUALLY correct. However, when they weren't it would blowup. I didn't mind them. What I did mind was preventing the posting of things they deemed false. Let it be posted and then put a fact check on it. People could read the fact check and make up their minds. Heck it would even drive people to research things on their own, which is a good thing. Now their algorithms went too far. I once got banned for posting a pageant picture of Jon Benet Ramsey when discussing the sexualizing of children.
