    This is why fact checks are bullshit. Reuters admits that

    a WEF social media video from 2016 that stated eight predictions about the world in 2030, including: “You’ll own nothing. And you’ll be happy. What you want you’ll rent, and it’ll be delivered by drone.”

    Now to make the statement false they bring in a strawman “Stated goal” condition and prove that particular part to be false, then claim that makes the whole thing false.

    Such bullshit.

      That doesn’t mean all fact checks are bullshit, just that fact checkers are people with jobs and opinions too.

        Yes, it is possible to fact check with integrity. Not like this example.

        Opinions should not enter into fact checking as opinions are not fact.

        In this case the job of these people is clearly to perform damage limitation for the WEF
