I’m being informed that FB promptly shuts down and blocks any and all mentions to fact checkers that aren’t their own, which is laughable to start with.

Well, it is laughable unless you are serious about democracy of course. FB’s policy of blocking links to other fact checkers means you can’t post a link that proves a post on a topic is incorrect. The incorrect post itself gets to stay (and the falsification can be shared, re-shared etc), only the correction of it being a lie is blocked.

Great.

I’m happy I am not there much any more (just doing the odd “Happy birthday” greeting these days).
