Same way they corrupted all the previous fact checking organizations and nonprofits. They can't tolerate dissenting or opposing narratives or reality that deviated from their own self justifying and self comforting narratives, so they actively suppress the other information sources by any means available, like religious zealots trying to stamp out heresy and apostasy.

And I say that even as someone who finds a 57% approval of a wartime leader who hasn't lost a lopsided war as at least plausible.

I mean it's not 99.9% Saddam Yes! Implausible.

So Trump's 4% number that everyone is saying is ridiculous came from US intelligence. Hmmm.

That account routinely cites Russia Today and TASS but laughably calls out something getting USAID as not credible.

Same for a certain poster from North Texas.

This is why Elon is loved....... He sees a challenge and calls it out, even when it is on him.

This is a sign of an honest individual. No hiding or blaming others, just call it out and here is a transition.

I would think you could set up an inorganic identifier in a similar way as you see "I am not a robot" tests fail robots for perfect execution. You could invalidate or even negatively correlate input from users who act in unison to try to game the notes.

That Elon statements don't set off any alarm bells for you guys is... fascinating.

Saying Zelenskyy should be holding elections when it would be illegal to do so shows him to be the opposite of honest. He's smart enough to know this, so the question becomes why is he choosing to repeat obviously false information.

not as fascinating as anyone who could support the last four years with a straight face.

If he has 4% approval, how is his military still functioning? Who would continue the war?

Working to fix this …

It should be utterly obvious that a Zelensky-controlled poll about his OWN approval is not credible!!

If Zelensky was actually loved by the people of Ukraine, he would hold an election. He knows he would lose in a landslide, despite having seized control of ALL Ukrainian media, so he canceled the election.

In reality, he is despised by the people of Ukraine, which is why he has refused to hold an election. I challenge Zelensky to hold an election and refute this. He will not.

President Trump is right to ignore him and solve for peace independent of the disgusting, massive graft machine feeding off the dead bodies of Ukrainian soldiers.

Elon's post above, context is important and people never go back to the original post/picture. Read it.

He claims community notes are being gamed while providing what evidence, exactly? Information is being manipulated? What is? Provide proof. Oh his proof is:

1. Opinion about where he thinks Zelinsky should be polling. No facts. Trust me bro.
2. Opinions on why Ukraine should hold a vote. Completely ignores any context of the war. How many men are off fighting? How many refugees? Gee, wonder why no elections?
3. More unbased opinions about what the people of Ukraine think
4. More made up opinions

So we have a claim with no evidence backed by more claims with no evidence?

The solution? "Fix" one technical component of X used to allow the community to provide context and evidence to posts.

An opaque technical change and you all cheer. ****ing hell.

Like you said, context is important. You're talking about the guy who bought the platform and implemented community notes in the first place. He is literally the only human being with control of a social media site who decided to add a mechanism for fact checking posts that wouldn't be controlled top down. So yes, he has earned some trust when talking about said mechanism; nobody on the other side of the aisle saw fit to do the same, they just rigged their "fact checking" mechanisms from the get go.

****ing hell indeed

A lot of light is being shed on Victoria Nuland in those posts on X. She needs to be investigated for her part and her bosses part in instigating the Ukraine/Russia War. Obama, Bush, Biden. three peas in a pod.

I fail to see you posting proof of where he is wrong. Bring receipts buddy. Otherwise, buckle up. Because every day more corruption and theft are uncovered and people like you supporting it lose more and more respect as you cry all over this board.

When even Zelensky's opposition in Ukraine is standing up for him, it's probably time to admit he's popular.
