The concept of Fake News, as popularized by our ever-repugnant "president" is one that I hold very dear to me. It makes me giggle. The whole concept that there are people out there that cannot grasp/refuse to accept certain things when the blatant truth is being shoved down their throats is just so...amusing/disheartening/hilarious/sad. I don't think the concept of #FakeNews will ever go away now. It's with us to stay. But in case you weren't sure, there is a difference between Real Fake News and D.T.'s "Fake News." Here are a few examples of #RealFakeNews to help you further realize and spot it in the future.
1. Global Warming Is Not Real
This is, and probably always will be, a hot debate. But scientists aren't lying here, kids. Global Climate Change is real, and we are making it work. Denial time should stop now.
2. Hurricane Irma Is/Was a Hoax
LOL Rush Limbaugh: I cut power to my apartment for six days just for giggles... Yeah, okay.
3. The Vegas Shooting Is a Conspiracy
Ah, yes. As the inevitable conspiracy theories following a great tragedy...lovely.
4. Donald Trump Is Doing a Good Job as President
People really like him! I mean we are all going to die, *cue hysterical sobbing* but people really like him! ...
5. The NFL Protests Are an Attack on Masculinity
...right. That's exactly what that's about. Thank you for your brilliance once again, Rush Limbaugh.
6. The California Wildfires Are a Conspiracy
People just can't seem to get enough conspiracy after tragedies...
7. Any and All Fluoride Conspiracies
Because these seem to be good to bring up now and again, just to remind you how crazy people can be with their #FakeNews.
8. And, While We Are at It: The Vaccine Resistance Movement
9. Twitter is Anti-Pro-Life
Yes, right. Okay then. Maybe the Trump Administration and their groupies will boycott Twitter now? *crosses fingers*
