IDK why people didn't just block mbfc instead of down voting it every time it shows up

[-] WhatAmLemmy@lemmy.world 61 points 1 month ago

They don't want the community to develop a trust for what very well could be a disinformation bot.

I'm actually kind of OK with that b/c it pushes it to the bottom of the comments, so it's out of the way but still easy to find if i'm curious.

Yeah some people, like OP, will post some blog and call it credible journalism. Abs maybe it is, but how the hell would I know?

By developing your own media literacy and attempting to verify facts in the things you read by using other sources. Better to evaluate news sources yourself than relying on a biased bot.

Actually, in your specific case you're probably right, it's probably better if you don't put any more strain on an unsound framework.

[-] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 1 points 1 month ago

Aw, he thinks his opinion matters

[-] Glytch@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

Would you waste your time replying if it didnt?

[-] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 19 points 1 month ago

Wait, what's wrong with the bot?

That site seems heavily right biased and not very factual. What's your point?

[-] Linkerbaan@lemmy.world 17 points 1 month ago
[-] GetOffMyLan@programming.dev 5 points 1 month ago

Yeah because they don't make stuff up. They just have a huge bias.

[-] Linkerbaan@lemmy.world 13 points 1 month ago

Except they literally make up false allegations about UNRWA and the UN.

[-] PeriodicallyPedantic@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 month ago

What is the diffe between "factual reporting" and "credibility rating"?

[-] blackn1ght@feddit.uk 17 points 1 month ago

Admins: we want some feedback from the community about the media fact check bot.

Everyone: we hate it, turn it off.

Admins: ok, we heard you, we're going to keep it on.

[-] Serialchemist@ttrpg.network 10 points 1 month ago

So you got spam, then?

[-] nadram@lemmy.world 9 points 1 month ago

That was funny ๐Ÿ‘Œ People downvoting cos they don't like the bot? Or don't like the criticism?

[-] barsquid@lemmy.world 11 points 1 month ago

Downvotes are likely because people don't like Linkerbaan.

[-] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 5 points 1 month ago

"NOOO the other team will genocide even harder so you can't criticize my team of paid for shills nooooo"

[-] barsquid@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

Oh, you are also a MAGA who wants the guy who blasted Yemen to get back in there and "finish the job" with Gaza before turning his attention to Ukraine.
