    It's basically just for libs to congratulate themselves. I'm absolutely certain not a soul on this Earth has ever been swayed from one politician to another by a fact check.

      You underestimate the neoliberal desire to conform to the narrative.

      I guess that’s not really “swayed” so much as just incorporating the new truth regardless of whatever the old truth was

        Yeah, like maybe you'll get people switching from Mayo Pete to Kamala Harris or vice versa after reading a fact check article on some minutia, but they are basically the same politician.

      Yep ime people just dig in their heels if you try to point out how something they believe isn't factual
