Rather than calling something fake news, you could sign up for a parker account yourself and have a browser of the content present there to make your own opinion. Calling something fake news is the equivalent of acusing everyone who disagrees with you an alt right scum.



I did not call it fake news. I asked if what you saw was legit or fake news. I was expecting your answer would be “yes I looked into it” or “no I’m not sure”

I’ve just seen so many online lies I don’t trust anything any more. I am not accusing you of anything.

That's quite an extraordinary claim, do you have anything to back that up?


Yes, personally knowing quite a few such people. They're all on made-up "disability"


I don’t disagree with your above claim of people trying to get a rise out of others with inflammatory speech online. I have seen it too but... it sounds like the rest of your argument is very politically motivated (and anecdotal).
