Most self-appointed fact-checkers are liars. They spread disinformation and then demanded censorship on the basis of it. They did this with everything from the Hunter Biden Laptop to transgenderism to the Great Barrier Reef. They should be shut down.

In response to "fact checkers," Facebook last year banned @EpochTimes for saying arctic sea ice wasn't declining. But @EpochTimes was right. Even @guardian now admits it. Mark Zuckerberg @finkd — you owe an apology to everyone you censored.

The statement accuses fact-checkers and Facebook of lying and censoring a scientist regarding the Great Barrier Reef's coral growth. It implies a broader issue of misinformation and censorship in public discourse.

  1. Principle 1:
    I will strive to do no harm with my words and actions.
    The statement accuses others of lying and censorship, which could be harmful if not substantiated. [-2]
  2. Principle 2:
    I will respect the privacy and dignity of others and will not engage in cyberbullying, harassment, or hate speech.
    It challenges the integrity of fact-checkers and social media platforms, potentially affecting their reputation without clear evidence. [-2]
  3. Principle 4:
    I will engage in constructive criticism and dialogue with those in disagreement and will not engage in personal attacks or ad hominem arguments.
    The statement does not engage in constructive dialogue and instead makes broad accusations. [-2]
