We fired our fact-checkers, so we cannot verify whether that is true or not.

True or not, this is the outcome we deserve.

[–] RamblingPanda@lemmynsfw.com 19 points 1 year ago

It's the outcome I want to believe as well.

i would like to post a community note saying that i personally believe it to be true

I think the goal was to flag benign content as misinformation to push truthful content to the same level as flat earth content.

So doing exactly what was intended.
