You could basically just believe the opposite of everything they say, and you'd be better off. They often respond to new inquiries so quickly that there is no way they actually did any research. Snopes is just a completely biased propaganda parrot.

Snopes has clearly gone from a trustworthy source to an indoctrination source. It's very clear, unfortunately, that their analysis is completely biased towards a specific agenda and things that are 100% true are now stated as false by both Snopes and Fact Check. It's sad to see that as soon as money comes into the picture, publications sell out.

Lost All Credibility
February 4, 2022

Snopes may once have been considered a somewhat reliable 'fact checking' site for those interested in learning the truth in a sea of media bias, however by 2022 has become nothing more than any other mainstream media site pumping out the mainstream approved narratives and vehemently condemning any one who wishes to have an open discussion on current and past political, social, social and historical items as an 'evil conspiracy theorist spreading disinformation.' Time and time again it ignores clear inconsistency's and facts in favor of gatekeeping mainstream 'truth' even as the truth changes to accommodate the new narratives.

Snopes is fake
February 8, 2020

Snopes claims to be a fact checking site. This is false.
I would trust Snopes to confirm or deny an urban legend. Beyond that, they are wroght with opinions and outright lies. All in all, a terrible fact checking site.
Something that would give them a smidgen of credibility is if people were able to comment on and rate their 'fact-checking,' but unfortunately they don't allow any outside input. It's either their opinion or nothing.

Headline says it all. The "owner" left his wife for his side piece; now they're all fighting for control of the service. How does a two person team have time to effectively do this MUCH research and this quickly? THEY DON'T. It's clearly deep state (CIA) owned & operated.

I used to fact check with this biased tool until I found out they were hiding or twisting facts that I knew were true. Shame on them for misguiding the public and causing so much damage to free speech. I hope someone bigger could stop them from censoring different opinions. They are fake. They lie and twist the truth. They censor others opinions.

I read a snopes review from a court case where a whistle blower states that the deaths from the Covid Vaccine was incorrect. She filed a statement under penalty of perjury. Snopes said they reviewed the lawyer and the woman and dont believe its legit. The hilarious thing is that the court case has not begun. They have Nothing to go by. However instead of being honest and saying the "verdict" is out still and we dont know, they said it was a false claim.
Its 100% not reliable.

Wilfully Ignorant
August 19, 2019

The workers at Snopes seem to be lacking the mental capacity to understand satire and the place of satire in our time. Using their position to bully people they disagree with, Snopes continues to show they are not reliable-and haven't been for some time.

Snopes is a leftist propaganda tool. Do not use, ever. Most recent example is the attack by Antifa thugs on Rep. Mace's home. Snopes stated it was a rumor however there's an active investigation for that attack and other similar in her neighborhood. Do not use Snopes as they lie, and skew the facts to fit their political ideology. In other words, they are FAKE.

Lame Stream Media
September 6, 2019

Lame Stream Media controlled! Try and find the real "truth". You are hurting this country by only reporting what your investors are wanting censored. Anybody ever wonder why the "Home Alone" kid went completely off the rails for a number of years? Anybody ever wonder why Hollywood and the Global elite are so hell bent on getting rid of Trump? Anybody ever wonder why Epstein was allowed to own an Island that was dedicated to the apetite of this global satanic network of pedophiles?
