    Okay - that’s obviously bad, but even the Fox News website tells the facts much of the time - they just bury the hell out of them in spin. Outside the obvious “snitch on your neighbors” - which is really pretty mild in terms of spin - what specifically is inaccurate here?

      The spin is that the government is unjustified in the restrictions on recreational activities, similar to how it was unjustified in the restrictions during the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic, or requiring vaccinations, etc.

        Vaccinations save lives, and are completely justified. Stop listening to conspiracy theorist idiots with no scientific or medical training.

        Outside the “snitch” headline, nowhere do I see that stated - or even implied. I hate right-wing spin as much as any sane person, but I also try to be fair. The article proper didn’t contain a single thing that screamed “bullshit” to me. Maybe the choice of Xitter user quote they inserted, but that’s all.

          The total ban on hiking and camping very unreasonable. And hard to enforce.

          The ban on anything flame related totally justified, and most follow it
