1. Meet Jeff. For what it’s worth, Jeff looks like a nice guy. I’m even willing to bet that Jeff wakes up everyday and tries his best to do his job, despite his shortcomings and lack of credentials to do so.

Excellent 🧵 which shows why it is so important to read MORE than just the "fact check false" designation. Often the "proof cited" is obviously wrong, misleading, or completely off-topic. #PayAttention #Facts #FactCheck #defundFactCheckers

2. You see, Jeff is a “Fact-Checker” for Politifact and gets paid to discredit Covid misinformation. So one might ask what are Jeff’s qualification? 1) Is Jeff a Doctor? No. 2) Is Jeff a Scientist? No. 3) Does he have a PhD? No. 4) Does he have medical experience? No.

11. If Jeff was a pathologist, vaccinologist or treated any of the athletes, then we might view it as his medical opinion, but he’s not. Sadly, Jeff acts as a propagandist, discrediting inconvenient truths at the expense of misleading the public. #DefundFactCheckers
