For everyone that loves to cite it.

Edited by tjustie: 3/31/2016 10:17:23 PMPolitifact is indeed left leaning, but that meme is terrible. The captions under the ratings aren't put there by politifact, but rather by the creator of the meme, and are highly misleading at that. Read the [url=http://www.politifact.com/truth-o-meter/statements/2015/nov/23/donald-trump/trump-tweet-blacks-white-homicide-victims/]article[/url] on Trump's comment on homicide. The article doesn't even come close to stating what the caption on the meme says. In fact, the caption is flat out wrong. It's pretty ironic and hypocritical to make/post a meme like that (who even uses memes to make points anyways?), which is clearly just as, if not more, biased than the source it's trying to paint as biased. The meme is a lesson in irony more than anything else. Also ironic in the context of this thread: You frequently cite infowars

Edited by ClusiveC: 3/31/2016 9:39:20 PMIf you can show why their facts actually aren't facts, then you might be on to something. If what they're reporting is factual, then how can you impugn someone for citing them? You have to do more than just point towards a page where they're listing lies and shit told by Republicans, and then assert that it's leftist and is therefore unreliable. I thought the picture would be doing some debunking or something, but there's nothing like that on that photo.
