In the age of lightning-speed communication, it’s more important now than ever to have good media literacy. It’s how you can tell the difference between misinformation and actual facts. Unfortunately, some people are more than happy to click the reshare button without considering what they’re doing.
The @cnviolations account shares some of the most epic moments when community fact-checkers called out misinformation on X (formerly Twitter). Scroll down to see just how shameless some lies on social media can get... and why informative context is so important!

And she has no problem spending the same amount or more on Israel. Considering the significant difference in attitude between the two countries this has nothing at all to do with helping our allies.

As we’ve covered on Bored Panda recently, some people like to believe in conspiracy theories because it gives them a sense of control in a chaotic and confusing world. The scarier and more uncertain a situation is, the more likely that people will cling to theories that, though inaccurate, help them make sense of the world.
Conspiracy theories aren’t backed by evidence. The people who believe in them discount any evidence that doesn’t support them. However, if you’re willing to consider evidence and are open to changing your mind when given solid proof, you’re less likely to fall victim to a conspiracy theory.
It's really sad that people like this exist. Hate just for the sake of hating.

Fun fact: men actually can lactate under extreme situations such as starvation. Usually biological men don't make enough of a hormone called prolactin, but there have been instances where it has happened. Look it up if you don't believe me
Also certain psychotropic medications can lead to this as a side effect, especially large doses.

The world doesn’t objectively become a less complicated place because someone chooses to believe simplistic black-or-white narratives. It’s up to us to look for the nuances and embrace them, even if they’re uncomfortable or don’t match our subjective experiences or political leanings.
A good rule of thumb is to be extremely wary of claims that are overly simplistic or have very clear heroes and villains. The world is more complicated than clean and clear fights between perfect good and total evil. That’s why context, provided by reliable sources, matters so much.

That's a new argument to me. If the "rock emits light", why does it have a dark side in the photo, why isn't it uniform like a (dim) light would be?

The actual Community Notes project has 782.8K followers and describes itself as a collaborative way to add helpful context to posts. This way, everyone using X or reading tweets (or are those called Xs now?) elsewhere, can stay better informed.

My cousin uses a wheelchair and he used to be able to cross his legs in one. Unfortunately he can't anymore as he has got weaker but he used to
I’ve had to use a wheelchair on occasion. Technically, I could always walk or move, it was just incredibly agonizing. Edit: I also try not to use wheelchairs if not absolutely necessary because people have this idea that wheelchair = stupid/mentally disabled.

PETA has long gone off the deep end. It's too bad because if they'd just quit the extremism, they'd be a very effective activism organization
PETA's *always* been off the deep end. I worked in animal welfare for 20 years, and some of my first training was on how to spot PETA members. They'd try to sneak into enclosures or staff only areas and poison the animals in our care.

The people who contribute to the Community Notes mission are regular users of the X social network. They sign up to write and rate notes.

Only notes that are rated helpful by people “from diverse perspectives” appear on posts.
It amazes me what people go through to try to prove their superiority to others rather than accepting everyone is equal. Also access to trading platforms have greatly increased along with access to relevant data. Further, calculators that actually do this type of alleged math actually exist.

Wtf? No one uses scratch paper for this. I valued portfolios as part of my job over 20 years ago and we used Excel and built software models from scratch. Also this is algebra.
I studied Calculus in college. I barely remember any of it now. Never had to use it in real life :D
I had one class sessions a week, of the 3/wk for my calc class, that was taught by a graduate student in calculus. Almost every week he has to pause while writing out equations and working through them and would state "Give me a moment. I haven't done it this way in a while. I don't know why the professor teaches you to do it this way. There is a much faster and easier way to do it, and you will never do it this way again after this class." X/
Load More Replies...There isn't even any difficult math on here, just a (slight) modicum of algebra. Now quantum physics, on the other hand, is hellish math, but that doesn't make a quantum physicist inherently better than anyone else (and they aren't often rich either).
This is simple algebra. And calculus and differential equations are no more necessary for stock trading than a degree in mechanical engineering is necessary to operate a can opener.
If there is one thing I can commend the British with is the fact that women have been allowed to "rule" without it being a problem

Load More Replies...The British Monarch is not the 'ruler' of the UK. They are the 'head of state' and in this case it's largely symbolic. They create no laws, only sign what's passed to them from the House of Parliament.
Theresa May, Prime Minister of the United Kingdom and Leader of the Conservative Party from 2016 to 2019.... we'll ignore Liz Truss!
Load More Replies...That and it's a head of state and ceremonial role with little direct political power so ruling is strictly nominal these days.
Around The World In 80 Days (2004) Queen Victoria: https://youtu.be/cJNSHKCEYJc?t=18 He also forgot there was a queen running the place 😅
But… historically men have been the rulers. Women may be working towards full equality but the fact that two women were ‘in charge’ in fairly recent history doesn’t remove the fact that men were in charge for thousands of years.
You can't ignore recent history in favour of further back though. It isn't 'two women' either. Three female Prime Ministers (regardless of how short a time with Truss) and that ignores the Late Queens' Elizabeth and Victoria. We're going to have a period of Kings with Charles (with Queen Camilla), William and George (if not abolished before the latter get there) but they're not rulers.

Swedish workers almost all belong to unions which ensure workers are paid fairly. Elon dummas Musk does not like paying his workers fairly. Hence strike.

“We believe regular people can valuably contribute to identifying and adding helpful context to potentially misleading information.

And even if he was, is it harmful to advocate for a fair tax system that'll still keep you financially healthy? 25% tax is on that years income from investments, dividends, corporate income, however tf billionaires become billionaires. For example: if you earn $1b in the year and pay 25% tax, that leaves you with 750m that can be used to enrich yourself even more. The initial 750m enrichment investment won't be taxed because it already has been, just the income derived from it. So, if you somehow conservatively earn 5% on that $750m, that leaves $37.5m in taxable income in the proper tax bracket for that income amount per year.
The right wants to take us back to the 50s. I'm all for it if billionaires are taxed at 70% again
It's even worse than that. Wealthy people paid 42% of their income in the 1950s. Republicans want to take us back to the late 1800s, when the wealthy paid nothing at all.

This I think was in regards to war casualties as the UN Considers anything above 14 to be adult casualities because 15+ can be lawful combatants under UN Rules.

Also trauma! Bug infestations of any sort can cause trauma, but bedbugs in particular are prone to causing it due to the physical and mental toll they take.

I'm stuck between them, either way, I'm kind of in danger with the rise of anti-semitism. I'm also not exactly the best at war either, I spent some time wondering why they didn't just have one of them get some land from Greenland, since it's sparsely populated and has land to spare (This was before I knew that the Palestinians had religious history/symbols in...whatever you call the space the two are occupying right now.)

Uber is a scam. They claim they are a service to hook up private citizens, but control everything including what can be charged. And at the same time try to convince governments and such that these people aren't their employees so that they don't have to pay for their benefits. This is how you take an already low paying job in a lot of areas (taxi driver) and ring out money from it to make a few people rich. Another thing I don't understand is that if you ask people these days if they would hitch a ride and they will tell you that no way they would get into a stranger's car.
I agree with you for the most part, just the last sentence is a bit...well. The thing is, if you get in an Uber/Bolt/Lyft, whatever, your drive is registered on the app or whatever and if anything happens to you, like an accident, you will be compensated/covered. Even if you, god forbid, get abducted, if you had notified just one person that you're using a taxi service, people will have somewhere to start the search for you from. But if you go into some strangers car to hitch a ride, you can very easily end up de*d. There has been too many stories about that kind of stuff. Even in Croatia, where I'm from, hitch hiking was pretty usual, especially in small, rural parts, where everyone knows everyone.

Cannons are still being used in modern militaries. We just don't call them "cannons" anymore. We use howitzer, artillery, mortar, and guns instead.

Load More Replies...The french soldier whose armor, cannonballed through the chest, would like to have a word for you. Same as the German knight Götz whose arm was torn off by one.
Quote from facts on civil war cannons. "Civil War artillery could fire multiple types of ammunition. Cannonballs were solid, round objects that would ricochet off the ground and often used to target fortifications and enemy artillery. Case shot was an anti-personnel projectile, meaning it was used against soldiers. It was a hollow shell filled with scraps of metal called shrapnel. Once fired at an approaching formation, the shell could explode in mid-air, spreading the shrapnel across a large radius. As the enemy got closer, gunners would switch to canister or grapeshot. The crew would load the gun with a coffee can-sized container filled with small metal balls. Once fired, the can would disintegrate, spreading the balls outward in a fan, essentially like a giant shotgun. "
Cannons aren’t really used for killing specific people, more for destroying castles, walls, boats, etc., or wiping out a section of people in an army.
He has a point indeed, somewhere, vaguely, that artillery is not primarily anti-personal. Also things like 'grapeshot' in ship-to-ship warfare --- equivalent to bullet vs buckshot, higher casualty rate because more spread out (and a maimed sailor is indifferent from a dead one during a fight).
Load More Replies...A general, basic strategy in the 18th and 19th centuries was disabling or (if possible, and much better) capturing operative enemy cannons... but cannons are not lethal.
The CANNON/ GUN is not the lethal part; the CANNONBALL/PROJECTILE is the lethal part . Modern artillery shells are lethal due to shrapnel (sharp, fast moving fragments) and to a lesser extent, the blast. I am speaking as a retired Artilleryman. Our weapon was not the Guns but the Projectiles.
Ugh, there are some slimy people who try to claim that it's not pedophilia, if the child "gives consent." One small detail - the legal definition of consent always goes hand-in-hand with a minimum age of consent. Being below this age invalidates any "consent".

It depends on the state legislation.

Well his math checks out. however $80 won't get you much gas (only 24 gallons), and most people use more than that in a moth.

Yesterday I spent £1.60 per litre on diesel. Which is roughly £7.20 per gallon = $9 a gallon?
And after that five years to break even, that giant battery dies and it costs you another $20k for a replacement.
That's not how that works. First, most EV batteries have an 8-10 year expected life based on "average" driving amounts, it's the charge/discharge cycles that count. Second, that expected life is based on the charge capacity dropping to 80% of new capacity. In other words, after that 8-10 years you still have 80% of your range, so instead of 200 miles you can now only go 160 miles. Third, battery prices have come down a lot, and if you absolutely feel like you need to replace you batteries it's going to be a lot less than $20k. Could throw in the trivia that most people don't keep *any* car, EV or ICE for 8 years.

"Context" and "probably" are two words that should not appear too close to one another.

plus ticks are creepy and icky so it's a right account for them too even if you don't count the severe illnesses these buggers can transmit like Lyme disease and Tick-borne encephalitis. Urgh

It's a tiny bit pathetic that some dudes can't bear to play a game if they don't want to f**k the women in it. Do grow up.
Yeah or pick a female character to play so they 'got something nice to look at' while playing

That's about latin people in the US where you can have neutral language. In my country neutral language is something that is only beginning to be attempted to and from trans and non-binary people mostly. And yeah most people would use latine as latinx has been mostly outdated on circles where this language is attempting to be created. Where I'm from, speaking against such terms is a form of hate speech against trans people, 99% of people who speak against neutral speech creation are transphobic or don't understand the importance of it for queer people. I'm just saying this as another country context as it's very upsetting to see the equality that queer people in some sort of power fight for here every day be discarded and put as wrong by people that don't live here with this everyday fear. Not every country is the same and latin america is huge, maybe on another one this is something horrible, but on mine is a sign of hope and inclusion that I will not see made less off.
How to reference someone of Spanish and/or South/Central American ancestry that would include 1st Nations (I do not know how original locals are referred to) peoples is something that people will probably struggle with for a while - same with gender language issues. One of the reasons that English is not gendered is b/c it is composed of many languages that were gendered but could not agree on what gender the different nouns were so they gave up. The EU is facing the same problem; many (all?) the languages are gendered but cannot agree on what gender the different nouns are causing interesting translation issues. And there is the issue of LGBQT+ community and how to include them in the language w/o being insulting.
Moron. That's the only word I got for him. Can we please deport him back to wherever tf he came from?
How long until Musk decides to remove the community notes?
That's very possible but I think other people having low ping versus people with high ping can actually favor the latter in a lot of fighting games.
The only way to get true 0 ping is to be playing the game on the same machine it's installed on. #ShutUpNerd
No one said it was, but thanks for context I guess. Anyone who thinks wisdom comes out of a scorscese film is toxic as f**k
Sure they are, but Scarface was directed by Brian De Palma.

The Barbie and Oppenheimer movies were both released this summer and were both pretty big hits and were getting a lot of 'buzz' / talk. Thus summer to remember. But the image (apparently) depicts the explosion as some sort of 'fun' event and the comment is pointing out it was anything but due to the destruction / death / radiation poisoning and more.
Load More Replies...To give some explanation for this, the Japanese are absolutely not fond of Oppenheimer as a movie or that Barbenheimer thing, for obvious reasons. The Oppenheimer movie also didn't come to cinemas there as far as I know.
USA is the largest terrorist group ever. We bombed civilian populations to demoralize the enemy. THat is the literal definition of terrorism. Terrorism is very effective people, you just have to make sure you are the best at it.
And it didn't stop there our government and the CIA specifically have been doing similar things ever since. They've only gotten more covert and better at the propaganda.
Load More Replies...I will say that the bombings had very long lasting side effects that weren't well understood back then. Remember, we tested these on our own people as well.
Well... yes. However, the alternative was going to be devastating to the allied forces. And, while I don't support atomic weapons, it likely lead to 1m allied deaths without use. Also it ended the Japanese empire. With hard work, their economy is thriving and the people live in a fair democracy.
It also killed exclusively civilians. Exclusively, they were the main target. Not soldiers. Say what you want, dead soldiers are awful, but still better than dead civilians. Also, dead Americans/allies aren't more valuable in any kind of way than the Japanese. This was a mass genocide.

It would just be cringe. reaction videos (where they just sit and stare at the camera) in general are cringe. The only reaction videos that are worth it are those where professionals watch videos and give tips or information relating to their field.
CApitalism BABY don't hate the player hate the game. If she wasn't making millions for corporations she wouldn't be allowed to do these things. Get some laws changed don't be mad at the girl for taking advantage of morons who will pay her to just exist. It's called a hustle, get you one.
Absolutely. It's known that android has all the features first. :)

Duh. Every phone with the ability to sense its own motion can do this. If your phone is moving, you're obviously awake. Your phone hasn't detected your bloody alpha waves, you know.
Also if you were asleep you wouldn’t be on your phone and see that…
It's gonna shut itself off anyway if the meathead doesn't plug it in.
I previewed the Apple link because I was curious and it says it doesn’t exist 🤷🏻♀️
I use it every AM on my iPhone when I awake before my alarm. Prompts me right on the screen. I also use it on my work Galaxy which takes some setting up. I’d say the first one is intuitive since it take no action on my part and the other counterintuitive since I must set it up & reset my alarm each time I use the feature. 🤷🏼♂️

Some of these are good, some of these are not. Just cause the majority says a thing doesn't mean that thing is correct. Just look at the majority of politicians saying it's okay to genocide the gaza strip.
I don't know why you're getting downvoted. It was really sickening to hear the politicians say "all of them" in response to a question of "how many dead Palestinians are enough?".
