Comment on Is there any lemmy instance that's truly liberal enough to tolerate a completely divergent point of view ? The EU norms are not for me, and I'm also far far away from the MAGA politics of USA !!!

  That’s not how anything works.

  There are only 2 instances of media outlets being banned based on the outcome of a political action and both had been known to spread complete and utter nonsense as “alternative facts” before they were banned: Russia Today and Sputnik.

  There’s not a great big cabal that says what’s true and what’s not.

  There are objective facts, there are opinions and there are complete fabrications aka lies aka “alternative facts”.
  Facts are fine.
  Opinions are fine, but they’re not facts.
  Complete fabrications or “alternative facts” are not fine, they can be objectively judged to be complete fabrications.

    Objective facts means tested and approved inside laboratories ???

    So the people in the West know the ground realities as “alternative facts” ???😳😳

      I don’t know why you are talking about labs in this comment.

        Labs means the dead science. What they observe under artificially controlled conditions, they bring it out in the open as science.
