Facebook marks authentic translations as fake

I get it. Fact checking is hard. And it is easy for fact checking to be manipulated for political purposes. There are people putting random translations out there that are misleading.

But let's not throw out the baby with the bathwater. Julia Davis is a reputable journalist providing real translations. My wife's first language is Russian, and she has verified enough of the translations that I know she is translating accurately.

Everybody hates it when Facebook is policing their content. But everybody is also quick to raise the torches and pitchforks when they have demands for Facebook to police others for ‘disinformation’.

It’s just the other edge of that sword, get used to it. Either Facebook is a common carrier that can’t censor content, or Facebook is a private party that gets to police content and make the mistakes that come with that territory.
