I sent this email to Snopes about their ridiculous Charlottesville "fact check" on Friday, followed up yesterday, no response. So sharing it here as an open letter. Apologies for the typos, I wrote it pretty fast. @brooklynmarie.bsky.social

You got one thing wrong: Snope's reputation has been in the toilet for almost a decade now.

snopes has been liberal "TECHnically" status quo-laundering for years. "Did Biden bomb Palestinians because of bigotry? SNOPES CHECK: FALSE, for who can ever truly know the heart of a man?" "Are rents raising across the country? FALSE. Their elevation vs sea level has remained the same or lowered"

I hadn’t visited Snopes in years before I read this article a few days ago, and all I can say is it’s laugh-out-loud funny. Funny in the “omg this is some fucked up hot garbage nonsense” way, not the other, better way.

Ever since I learned about what shit went down at Snopes, I’ve held them at a distance and read their output with much more skepticism. As someone else pointed out here, Snopes isn’t what it used to be. Thanks to @brooklynmarie.bsky.social for sharing some insight on the history there.

This could never have happened during the Binkowski Era.
