How did Snopes become the end all discussion authority on if things are true or not?

I feel like as soon as someone says "well Snopes says that's false" then all discussion is halted and people dare not question it

I haven't looked at their stuff in quite some time, but several years back when the low IQ folks in my family loved sending the BS fake political/racial/religous email chains, it was just easy enough to find the story on snopes and send it back to them. It was always correct with what snopes said when a little research was done.

I never saw people upset with snopes until Obama came into office and some were pissed that snopes proved some of the stuff about him was false.

They probably should have just stayed out of all of the crap.

Nothing is true unless you feel it's true.

Well they do have an agenda with some of their opinions.

Most political stuff has no facts to back up their thoughts

Snopes is complete shite. If anyone quotes Snopes, I immediately know they're lazy and stupid.

Snopes says that the asserted association between laziness and stupidity and using their site is False.

Some stuff is obviously correct but they proved to be a liberal mouthpiece last election

Not any more. Snopes has lost all credibility to the point of not even being mentionable.

Not sure what circles you move in but that is definitely not the case with my discussions
