Misinformation


Is that when something is actually true but rather inconvenient for one political party so it uses its tentacles of corruption to subvert the proliferation of said truth?

Just to be fair: The tweet is pretty misleading.
He says the fbi said there was a lot of misinformation in the 2016 election and to be hyper vigilant.

They (FB) thought the laptop story fit that profile so they restricted is sharing.

When asked by Rogan if the FBI specifically mentioned the laptop story he said “no”.

So FB actually is the one that decided to censor. FBI never specifically mentioned it.

Sounds like we heard a word over and over again during Trump's term that would fit here.... something something..."collusion" was it??

Freaking lefties projection is as predictable as them not showing up in threads like this.

You think Hunter Biden’s laptop is misinformation?

If the incestuous relationship between the FBI and all Gaslight Media platforms isn’t severed we have no hope of saving our constitutional republic.

What misinformation? Fact checks would struggle to refute that Hunter is a piece of shite.

This is just the story they are telling now. They also had 50 bozos sign a letter claiming that it was Russian misinformation when they all knew in fact that it was real.

They were all in on it together.

Why would Cuckerberg admit this to Joe Rohan?

What else is he hiding?

request from the FBI to restrict election misinformation.

Sounds like the Bolshevik workaround to the 1st amendment. They should lose their 230 protection because of this.

Agree. The tweet is misleading but Facebook just sucks. They may think they are doing the best they can or whatever or are trying to be careful, but everybody should get to say everything on social media.

Say sorry FBI but we believe people are capable of discernment, so you guys post whatever you want, but we let people speak freely.

But it wasn’t misinformation though. And they knew what was on the laptop and knew it was legit and still said it was misinformation after the fact. That doesn’t strike you as a bit odd?

But don't criticize the FBI. They are just doing their jobs. It's not their fault. Except when they willingly follow unconstitutional and unlawful orders.
