I would be very careful taking either zerohedge or rt.com seriously.

zerohedge is a conspiracy theory/pseudo science blog and rt is Russian propaganda.

TwittySeal is the human equivalent of the little banner Youtube puts under videos covering any information of consequence to make one last desperate plea to eat the corporate mainstream media's shit some more.

He has trouble with anyone who has opinions that don't align with his own speaking. Only sources about the Cornonavirus approved by him are allowed, otherwise he will put a disclaimer under every single post. He is doing his part. Volunteering at hospitals? No, sitting on his ass following people around on the internet wagging his finger digitally.

Man, you totally nailed it!

I think I read somewhere that it was discovered that the short-lived campaign of using 'trusted' truth entities (Snopes, the ADL, etc) for the flagging made it MORE likely that most people would believe a flagged story. That would explain the short-lived nature of the experiment.

These people are well funded though. It's not like they would curl up and go away. The latest trial balloon is that the internet NEEDS to have ALL content checked by AI algorithms and/or certified humans before it can go from the keyboard to anyone else's screen. This to eliminate the scourge of antisemitism. The real-time nature of the internet was definitely a bug, and one which a lot of people are hard at work on trying to fix.
