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

      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.
