100% detection of fake news, but I'm slightly skeptical about the news. That last bit is probably a direct result of living under Tory rule for so long.

There is another angle to this and that is REAL NEWS being dismissed as fake news now that to me is the real issue.

That orange buffoon created this third way and it’s dangerous as we’re seeing in Russia Ukraine now.

Facts are facts and news is still news.

This questionnaire is genuinely ridiculous I can't quite believe that someone in academia has put it together.

It's essentially do you agree completely with what the mainstream opinion is.
