>>In short, farm country voted overwhelmingly to unleash a new trade war. And now these same farmers and their political leaders want taxpayers to finance another round of bailouts to protect them from the consequences of their own votes. <<

>>There is no ongoing genocide occurring in South Africa. And while the government did enact a law last year allowing for the confiscation of land without compensation, no property has been seized under its authority.<<

@DemLabs. #Instagram, too. They are using #TheDispatch as fact checkers!
I'm old enough to remember all those names (at least vaguely). In addition to letting MAGA apparatchiks "fact" check, Zuck has now declared T may run free on his platforms, should he deign to, lying his orange face off as usual. I wonder what #thedispatch boys will have to say about that? 🤔
As it turns out, complaints have been cropping up all over #Facebook saying posts that are demonstrably true about #Project2025 are being labeled as false, and the labels always come from #TheDispatch.
I decided to do some research and add some of that context The Dispatch seems to be so concerned about. First, let's explore what The Dispatch is, and then whether it is truly "independent" or truly qualified to check facts.

#ThomHartmann: I’ve had 2 articles this year, 1 on the fossil fuel industry & the 2nd this week’s piece on “yellow journalism,” openly censored by a social media site for “violating community standards.” People who tried to repost them were threatened w/their accounts being shut down.
Me: #Instagram messaged me from "independent "fact checker #TheDispatch claiming this #Project2025 post is "partly false" & "Viral Claims About #Project2025 Are Mostly False."

This was a great podcast episode from a few weeks ago, with #geneticist Razib Khan talking about (among other things) his recent post "The Longer I Live, the Wronger I Get to Be." It was a fun, widely cast conversation about a topic I don't necessarily spend much time on. And helped by the obvious camaraderie between the host and his guest. Worth a listen! #genetics #TheRemnant #TheDispatch

Holy frick
@JonahGoldberg of #TheDispatch is apparently trying to doxx and sue graf for telling #Poast users to join journa.host
If all users on that instance are like that, it’s definitely seeming like journa.host will indeed be a breeding ground for bad actors.
Not a big fan of #FediBlock, but yeah you may want to consider blocking them if you’re worried about being doxxed
