Political Fact Checking

WE NEED TO TAKE CONTROL OF THE FACT CHECKING GAME

It's become obvious that Hillary's late game tactic is to throw a million and one counter-claims to Trump's statements so that whenever anyone attempts to discuss Donald's positions on elections, the normie masses will assume that the person discussing is either misinformed, gullible, or themselves lying.

Websites like politifact archive.is/wCZkD have been supplying a steady stream of mainstream disinformation to the masses in the form of accuracy checks. This has the effect of gish-galloping counter facts, not any single person can call bullshit on their fact checking, and so it is set to stand by default because it's (((fact-checking))). It's not just Politifact doing this though, NPR, CNN, hell, even fucking CBC up in Cancuckada was doing fact checking on all of these statements. The MSM is attempting to set up a wall of counter-evidence from a flood of (((experts))) saying that he's a liar. IT FALLS ON US TO STOP THEM.

DON'T WORRY, WE GOT THIS

We need to do three things:
1. Disprove their counter-claims.
2. Identify (((facts))) that mysteriously don't get checked.
3. Meme it.

I've gone through and screen capped the counter-facts that NPR has provided in response to the debate (I'd have archived the page, except they've done some sort of fancy jewry archive.is/2mD1Q to prevent archive.is from capturing the page). I will post these images on their own with an archived link of any outside links posted by NPR staff. If you have knowledge of a claim being bullshit, please respond to THAT post and explain why it's bullshit with an archived link to our source confirming it as bullshit, or at least a half-truth counter.

After I've posted all of the counter links, I will screen grab the entire NPR post for posterity. I'll throw this up so other autismfags can check to see what's not being fact checked, and potentially what's been misquoted.

After we finish with all of this, we'll be putting the screengrabs together with the counter evidence PROVING that Trump never lies!

THE GOLDEN DON NEEDS YOUR SUPPORT
MAKE FACT-CHECKING GREAT AGAIN

At this point, I would like to mention that I'm coming across multiple re-archives of these links. Should I overwrite them or stick with the original? For now, I'm sticking with the original.

I like the cut of your jib.

No link.

Correct, especially the jew-controlled shill HQ that is politifact. I was going to make a counter website to factcheck politifact, but I figured nobody would ever see it. Much better if Holla Forums got on something like this as a collective.

No link.


The dubs have spoken. Kek wills it.

yeah, no shit, i'm totally with this idea.

going forward, i hope trump curb stomps the bitch. i almost forgot how much and precisely why i loathe this woman. i hate her voice, her face, her personality, i hate everything about her.

there is SO MUCH trump could put into SO MANY ads, and here, 45 days out, it's time for him to just blaze with both barrels.

embarrass, annoy, and destroy this woman.

What do you mean also nice multi thread shilling

Nice try shill.

Nice thread OP. These awre the tactics we need to use, and quick. The clock is ticking. Going to start digging through some of this right now.

I just read the Tax Foundation report, they say that even the bottom three deciles would see at least a 10.5% increase in income over the long term.

This ain't cuckchan, mate. Make relevant filenames for images so that they can be thrown into one's folder.

Inb4 they compare 90's to 2000's.

90's politics and strategies are obsolete. Burgers are poisoned with materialism and sense of entitlement.

No amount of wishful thinking on Hillary's part will fix that.

This seems to be an error in formatting on their page. I'm not sure what went awry here, but the links are as follows.

Excellent find, can you screen grab it and upload it to the thread?


Sorry man, but there's about 50 files and I need to keep them ordered in my folder for uploading. I'm afraid you're just gonna have to deal with the shitty filenames. I'll improve in future threads.

This faggot forgot that manufacturers operate elsewhere due to the fact they are taxed to death.

Nixon Released Tax Returns during an Audit, Why Not Trump: archive.is/Et2Fz (3 months ago)

The main thrust of this counter claim assumes that the risks of releasing tax information back when Nixon was in power are the same as now. Also, it's easy to point out how Trump is not the average person. He is a rarity himself, so constant audits are probably the norm.

I recall that Halliburton was essentially embezzling money through the war by overcharging on American supplies. If anything, this supports the generalized assertion that Trump holds that corrupt government can lead to nothing good.

We need to watch the watchmen, to fact-check the fact-checkers and especially to show when they're purposely omitting hilldabeast's lies. How can we make a site that anons can contribute to that wouldn't be susceptible to CTR rigging?

To be honest, I think memeing it is a great first step. If we create a series of solid counter-counter-fact images, we can spam those and then throw doubt across most of the fact checking scheme that is being done right now.

Two more uploaded at once since there's no link.

There's a fact-checker error. She falsely claims that the Fed Chairmen serve the President.

Someone needs to fact check this dumb bitch

That's really misleading. They didn't "win" immunity. Immunity was offered to compel them to testify since they claimed that testifying would incriminate them.

Clinton wasn't charged because the FBI argued she didn't really know enough about what she was doing to realize that it was a really bad idea. The people who DID know it was a bad idea were given immunity. That's why nobody was charged, according to the official story.

These chucklefucks are human trash.

He didn't suggest that he would "try to negotiate down the national debt." He said that if the situation gets so bad that we can't pay the debt, we don't immediately go to default. The first step is to pay back less than the full amount as a way to avoid a total collapse. It's not a negociation tactic, but a way to mitigate damage.

The financial people were complaining about this because we are supposed to pretend that US debt is the safest asset in the world and could never be worth anything less than 100% of the face value even if the US economy is a disaster.

No link. However, Mary Louise Kelly is taking an undated off-hand statement to a shock-jock before Trump's presidential bid as "Oh, he TOTALLY supported the war in Iraq!" Disingenuous fuck.

IMO you don't need to disprove every single claim. Don't overload the normie brain.

For example nobody actually gives a shit about


Something like

is much more interesting. He's talking jobs and the factchecker misdirects with cybersecurity. What in the fuck. That screencap in contrast with pic related can be easily understood and people do care about jobs.

Look for angles that matter but 4780 memes proving factcheckers are full of shit will just confuse people not knowing what's worth paying attention.

Fox News Poll on Clinton vs. Trump as President: archive.is/AnKPn

No link.


You do make an excellent point, sir. Disproving all of the fact checks would just overload normie brains, but that's the strategy they're already attempting with all of the fact-checking sites and "live fact checking" during the debates. We won't be able to throw all of these countered fact-checks at normies and expect them to light up and go "Oh, I understand now." At best, we're hoping to have most assertions countered so that if someone can, they can summarize the "Well, Trump's not actually lying there" into a wide variety of simple and easy to understand images.

Funny how they never mention those 10 million jobs are mostly part time jobs and that America's population rose by about the same number if not more

Love how they make Trump look fat and Hillary skinny even though she has a BMI of AT LEAST 30.

Political fact checking is bullshit.

There's multiple sources of data with often contracting results. Statements can be taken out of context and pushed as fact. Two people can look at the same set of data and come to wildly different interpretations. For example, black crime data can be interpreted as systematic racism or inherent black criminality.

Two people can see the same event and interpret two entirely different realities. For example, all the latest killing of blacks by cops where one person can see the same event and see a armed criminal being killed by a cop in self defence and another can see a black being executed by a cop because he is black. It's the same exact event.

Political facts are a rarity and hard to come by. You can spin and cherry pick almost anything.

Now how do we compress that salient point into a meme for throwing at people who like throwing out the politifact website? Remember that the biggest challenge here isn't just identifying the lies, but also fighting against the MSM creating this haze of "all the fact checking says Trump's lying and Hillary's honest". Most normies don't like to think, if they see 3 MSM sources all saying the same thing, they're inclined to assume that it's the consensus opinion and just go with the main narrative being pushed.

As much as this might seem like kicking mud uphill, this is the new battleground upon which Hillary will try to outflank Trump. We need to power through this.

Nice.

Hang on, I have to leave the house. I just heard a car accident and want to go make sure everyone's okay.

I don't like where this is going…

False alarm. By the time I got there cops and fire trucks had already arrived. An ambulance left the place without flashy lights and sirens, so I assume that it's all A-OK.

I've emailed pictures to myself, but my phone seems to be made of fail.

Is there a good transcript of the debate somewhere?

Just posting it now, but I haven't spent the time that would be required to make sure that this transcript is actually 100% accurate with the debate as I watched it earlier tonight. One thing at a time.

Do you have the text version? I hate to ask and add more work to you.

No problem, man. I'm stuck here until I wrap this up. This is a direct link to the NPR site: npr.org/2016/09/26/495115346/fact-check-first-presidential-debate/a

Just delete the "/a" at the end.

man you really could not have been any more subtle? christ.

For some reason it slipped my mind that I could upload multiples of these. So here's the rest of them.

lmao.

Well unfortunately, this is where I fall down.

I'm terrible at making OC. I've attached what this guy said.

If someone can do a better job, I implore you to make it happen.

Also, it's pretty evident that this thread is getting slid to hell and back. I'm wondering if it'll even be here when I wake up tomorrow.

that is way better than a lot of oc i see posted here, brief and to the point, and the information is ordered logically

Yeah it fucking is an inconvenience. Ever work with a bunch of qomen all taking turns with maternity leave? The amount of bitching and wntitlemwnt they exhibit ks shameful, and everyone else has to pick up their slack because they cant hire someone for 12 weeks.

Holy shit did i butcher that. Meant to say entitlement

Short-life
The memes write themselves
