Are you a commie Ruski whore to Putin? Come clean.


Russia and Canada are both very cold but I assure you we are two separate nations.

According to whom, someone with an axe to grind?


My point is that someone who tries to rate others as being biased might be biased themselves. You should rely on yourself to figure out bias instead of relying on a website to do that for you.

Oh, I understand bias. You're just predisposed to calling into question anything that dares call out bullshit for what it is.

Besides, MBFC relies solely on signatories to the code of conduct here: https://ifcncodeofprinciples.poynter.org/know-more/the-commitments-of-the-code-of-principles, and includes their methodology on their site. They're pretty much the least-biased fact checker around.

Then you need to prove that what they are "calling out" is indeed bullshit. If you can't do that, maybe just admit it's only your opinion.

The question isn't, "who is the least biased". The real issue is that even a website/organization that attempts to evaluate bias in others can be biased themselves.

Lol, you don't know how proof works. You think an image can "prove" things for you. You also don't know what a true spin is, but you sure think you are smart because you used the word "spin" in a sentence.

No, by using your brain to think about it critically.

Do you know what critical thinking is?

The "image" is simply the screen cap of the rating from this page: https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/bitchute/

There's a Detailed Report section that explains in great detail why Bitchute is rated the way it is. You spending so much time worrying about the fact check rather than the original source sounds like a whole lot of tilting at windmills to me.
