    Remember, just because you're paranoid doesn't mean they're not after you. :)

    Always judge a conspiracy by the following rule: if more than ten people have to be secretly involved, then it is more likely a fantasy than a conspiracy.

    Humans are terrible at keeping secrets and the odds of them being kept are reduced exponentially with each new person involved.

    "Fact checks" and claims of "conspiracy theory" are instantly dismissed as far as I am concerned.

    "Fact checks" (as a source) are just left wing propaganda and the dismissal of an argument as a "conspiracy theory" is just a logical fallacy (an appeal to popularity).

    LOL, and on the other hand, sources used by mainstream media are impeccable and always speak the truth and nothing but the truth. We know that because they have told us that.

    And you forgot the most important advice Daniel: ALWAYS remember that humans just don't conspire, ESPECIALLY humans holding power in government. They are perfect angels, never planning with their mates. :angel:

    You are free to live in your fantasy land where Trump gets re-elected by Congress on January 6. No matter how many times you were told it wouldn't happen; you kept yourself in fantasy land.

    So, your love of fantasy land conspiracies is to be expected.

    Bingo! You've caught onto the game. In fact, the Ministers of Societal Manipulation have even told us that their covid-19 coverage is "facts, not fear".

    Congress does not elect the President. They DID certify a fraudulent election on Jan 6th, however.

    I never said that it WOULD happen. I had faith that the State legislatures would do the right thing by decertifying the fraudulent "elections" in their States, but they didn't do so. Now, it appears that Prime Minister Biden will be installed by the Uniparty oligarchy on Jan 20th. We'll see if any excitement occurs on that day.

    So, your love of lies and manipulations is to be expected.

    I've noticed that the politifact page that has a link to global research's page doesn't actually go to global research's page (check for yourself here: https://www.politifact.com/personalities/centre-research-globalization/) Just a coincidence?

    Anyway, politifact has a history of getting some things wrong, as well as being funded by the Bill and Melinda Gates foundation:

    Cool story.

    My link had nothing to do with them.

    The article was meant to show that you can't rely on politifact when it comes to information on vaccines.

    You didn't. I was responding to Curious Always in Comment #14, not you.

    You're struggling.

    1. I'm curious always.
    2. I never mentioned Politifact.
    3. I was referencing https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/global-research/ , which shows that global research is a pseudo science rag.

    Partially true :p. I am currently sick, it doesn't help.

    Alright, so it seems that you didn't actually click on the links that you had quoted from mediabiasfactcheck. Had you done so, you would have found out that their source is politifact.

    Gotcha - you're right, I didn't notice that. The site I sourced checks their work.

    Your link didn't discredit any of the false information cited by mediabiasfactcheck. They rate Politco as left-center with a high credibility rating. Very high is the highest, so they acknowledge that Politico gets it wrong, sometimes.

    Alright, well glad that we could both get some things straight. So are you going to read the OP or did you just come here to say that mediabiasfactcheck doesn't like the Centre for Research on Globalization?

    I trust the medical community, which includes doctor and researchers around the world.

    I don't read proof that the earth is flat, either. Same/same.

    Remember, this is the team that brought us "alternate" facts.

    Team red no longer knows the definition of facts.
