Try a spot of fact checking.


Who would you recommend? Snopes? BWAHAHAHAHA!!!!


Just about any mainstream news source would provide you with more
info than you clearly have at present


"If you do not read the mainstream media you are ill-informed
If you do read the mainstresm media you are mis-informed."

(After Mark Twain).

"In general you may believe what you read save in the one subject that
you actually know soumething about"

(can't remember who said that).

The point is that the mainstream media are the worst places to get facts
from.

They make their living out of advertising and PR. They are paid by large
globalist companies, or by government franchise in the case of the BBC,
to publish what is useful for those people to have you believe.

That you cite them as an authority, and seem to believe that argument
from authority carries weight, is merely and indication of how
dangerously naïve you really are.

People like you should not be allowed to vote.
