It took me until today, but I finally realized that yes my friends do in fact take Politifact as gospel.
It's amazing how strong the "appeal to authority" is.
Then they accused me of picking and choosing only the facts that I liked.
Also, they are dead serious that once something is "corrected", then it's a conspiracy theory to mention it. The 200% in Wisconsin? Already debunked. Massive spike in Michigan? Already debunked.
Like, they can't even give a "it looks interesting but I don't believe it." They keep telling me to look in the mirror because TRUMP IS THE WORST PRESIDENT OF ALL TIME!!!!!
Good point. Then when I posted the Politifact that Biden said the same thing with Fracking I was called a nut because Politifact MUST BE RIGHT!
