I stopped watching these fact checkers after I found a flagrant mistake on Snopes. I also stopped looking at Wikipedia, because I found multiple mistakes there. They are indeed opinions, not facts.

I love 're-fact' and 're-faction,' but just can't quite make my brain accept 're-facted.' It hurts! I will try to normalize it in my mind....

Thank you for your excellent and courageous work!! Keep it up and stay strong. One error I noticed, if are able to correct, is that you wrote "right" instead of "write".

I love, love the phrase coined here of "Science-Like Activities". I can't wait to use it when challenged!

Fact checkers's purpose is "suppression", that is, preventing people from looking at stuff.
