16.4K retweets
2 verified accounts, almost 25,000 retweets of a verifiably false story and Twitters little "fact check" feature is nowhere to be found. Predictably, their application of fact checks is going to be hilariously one sided. As long as you're a Democrat, you're free to say whatever you'd like.

I wish I could kneel on some of those twitter trolls.

You should know by now Twitter "fact" check is only for conservatives

I’m sure Jacob Roth is rushing to correct this

Let me get this straight: you’re upset that Twitter hasn’t removed posts with demonstrably false claims accusing an innocent person of murder.
I can co-sign that. Let’s apply that across the board.

Problem in it doesn't matter if it's fake. Remember the Virginia campus rape culture.
They even admitted it was fake and said just because it was made up doesn't mean it's not true of college campuses...
They're going to say the same thing here.
Besides i've been closely following a lot of videos and pics on twitter. Most if not all of them are fake. The latest on with Naddler sayin paper ballots bad idea. watch his mouth, it's not even a good edit job. People don't care, they believe what they want to believe. and as long as enough blue checks retweet it becomes social media truth.

Silly, rabbit. Fact Check is for Conservatives.

That’s pretty disingenuous. That post is clearly intended to cause - at best - racial tension and most-likely rioting. It has nothing to do with accusing anyone of anything.

Agreed. Is there someone you think has been wrongfully accused of murder? If so, can I ask a follow up? Has the wrongfully accused ever had a dead intern turn up in his office? I only ask for clarity sake you know?

Stop using Twitter. Simple solution. If Trump doesn't approve of Twitter's policies, he can stop using it.
Problem solved. You're welcome.

This is the part I don’t get. If you don’t like a company’s policies, don’t deal with that company.
Can Trump not elevate another platform?

That and the Richard Jewell case are the two worst examples of media atrocities I've ever seen. Sabrina Erdely should be in prison for writing that article and Rolling Stone should have been eradicated off the face of the earth. That was a fricking disgrace.

RS should have been folded up after that bullshite cover story on the Tsarniev kid who bombed the Boston Marathon.

It's ok if they spread lies as long as it's your lies, right?

Roth will probably just give a wise guy apology and say something along the lines of "they all look alike to him anyway."

@lukewarmwater is an idiot, doesn't even look like the same guy.
Posted on 5/27/20 at 12:27 pm to FATBOY TIGER
Apparently all those white assholes look alike to him.
Posted on 5/27/20 at 12:28 pm to Lsuhoohoo
It's amazing how ignorant the people are that fall for these things. Those two men don't even look similar.
