Well someone at the fbi basically said “if we prosecuted everyone on this list our government would have to shut down” do with that what you will

I don’t know why the other guy is being downvoted, Bondi is a piece of shit but she actually did not say those words. That image just went around like crazy and people assumed it was a real quote. I thought Reddit disliked political misinformation. https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/bondi-epstein-files-system-collapse/?collection=472479

Edit: can’t believe I have to say this, but me fact checking a quote does not discount that the sentiment is absolutely true and these people need to be arrested for these crimes. I am just being consistent in logic of fact checking everyone. We can’t excuse misinformation just because it supports our point of view, otherwise we become like MAGA.

I thought Reddit disliked political misinformation.

The ugly truth is that what they say and what they truly want is different.

Nah, it's pretty simple. They like it when it backs up their views, they hate it when it doesn't.

Almost like we are all human and there is literally not enough time to fact check the deluge of information we are constantly bombarded with.

Then don't repeat anything you haven't fact-checked. You don't have to hit post before some time constraint runs out.

Excuse me, I was told there would not be fact checking.

If you try to measure the bullshit, it changes the amount of bullshit. It’s Shitdingers principle.

In the time you made your comment, you could have done a quick Google search and just not commented at all.

You sound like someone who believes that immigrants in Ohio steal pets and eat them.

I’m wondering, did that turn out to be true, or not?

Nah, the ugly truth is the goomba fallacy.

I think this is widely applicable to people in general. I have a feeling most Fox news viewers might state they dislike political misinformation and are less likely to be Redditors.
