Context:

The article in question was well sourced, factually accurate, and written by a well-renowned author and journalist whose work appears elsewhere too, regardless of which outlet published it.

Nonetheless, Jordan Lund is once again blindly trusting a pro-zionist conservative outlet masquerading as a bias and fact checker that nothing from anywhere that criticizes the fascist apartheid regime can be reliable 🤦

    Oh i just realized that stupid bias check bot has been gone for a while. Everyone hated it so i guess it was killed or blocked at some point? Anyone know the story?

      Personally I haven’t seen it for ages because I blocked it, but if I was to guess, the mods finally relented to the overwhelming majority? 🤷

    Christ on a bike.

    I have a hard time taking seriously anything or anyone who says “Far-Left Biased” (esp. with that capitalization) unironically.

    Lazy PTB on the grounds of (maybe mindlessly) parroting Fox News rhetoric instead of researching themselves.

    But anyone who isn’t a moron knows that MBFC is an incredibly biased source… Right?

    Literally they make it so obvious

      They think that because it claims to be accurate, therefore it is. No fact checking of themselves, no matter how it is completely wrong and treats liberal media as far left, and fox news are center right, it’s the godsend for the mods to remove anything they dislike.

        It’s in the Wikipedia sourcing guidelines: Absolutely under no circumstances should you reference Wikipedia as a reliable source, it needs to be something external, ideally something with some expertise, because if you never check yourself from outside, you can believe literally anything because you believe it just because at some point it made its way into your little collection, and self-referential loops are bad.

        Meanwhile MBFC’s rating for MBFC: 10/10 bro

      It’s my one grouse with the Tesseract ui, that they grab MBFC ratings for every post linking an external site and highlight it. It’s not the awesome feature you seem to think it is, Patrick

    Weekly reminder that Jordan Lund is the same piece of shit Zionist redditor that hates BLM because protests are too loud and inconvenience him. The dude is a republican shitstain.

    YDI. Mint press sucks.

    Also, ya know, you guys can stop talking about me in this thread now. I’m not the mod that OP is talking about. I had nothing to do with it. Thanks! :)
