Because, once again, only right-wing thought is ever truly ever ‘true’ or ‘factual’ by default, and anything contrary to that must be the worst lies from the pits of hell:

Facebook has blatantly taken a side, masquerading it as objective fact checking. All because of one other outlet’s say-so.

Again, conservative thought is treated as the one sole truth, and anything on the liberal side of things is treated like a lie out of the gate, hyper-scrutinized, and still treated like suspect bullshit even when proven factual. They’ve been gift-wrapped the very concept of ‘true’, gifted a monopoly of ‘truth’ while peddling bad faith falsehoods out of their ass. And fighting back against it seems to just cause outlets like Facebook to hunker down even more, treat us with even more contempt and hide even further behind the reputations of places like the Weekly Standard the entire while.

Fuck everything….

Just imagine how the assholes would react if the Nation were in charge of fact checking.
