Ummm..who thought it was "real"? Not a single post on this thread made such a claim, so I dont know where your getting your hateful rhetoric from..
Who thought it was real? lol Some of the loons on the left. They think big government works and that health care is a right so of course they'd think it was real.
Look, Snopes has likely made errors with fact-checking. However, I would say they are 1 of the better fact-checking sites. Now, if they are any cases of the off-chance they deliberately mislead their viewers on a story, that could really have people question Snopes overall.
There is also a parody Twitter account which is disguised as AOCs account, where people say ridiculous things and attribute them to AOC. My conservative fiends post them on Facebook all the time thinking they are her words.
Yep. My conservative family members have emailed me "articles" from satire sites. Sadly, it IS necessary for Snopes and other factcheckers to fact-check satire because people believe that these things are true. And you wonder how Trump got elected... half the population has no clue how to fact-check anything and assumes that if it's on the Internet or in an email, it must be true.
I mean, scroll through the posts here. You'll see a bunch of them based on stories that are obviously not true. Critical thinking skills are lacking, in general.

That's like the twitter account Sean Spicier that was trolling LeftWads that actually thought he was Sean Spicer. Leftists believe anything they are told too.
