Yeah, that's part of the problem. You didn't think about it. Just heard it, and came here to the echo chamber instead of taking literally seconds to click on the account and vet the information even just the slightest little bit. That is 100% how all the fake news starts spreading --- through people being careless and not understanding something but then passing it along as fact, or people maliciously planting information that people are careless about and will pass it along as fact.
It's the same crap going with the election as a whole right now. DJT, Rudy and all the circle spreading information about rigged elections but they can't get anywhere in court. Why? Because in the media they can say anything --- no consequences. But in court, under oath, there are real consequences for lying, and you're supposed to have evidence. But how many people that believe all the election stolen stuff have investigated? Truly looked into it rather than relying on misinformation spreading?
Heck, even in this thread after it being pointed out multiple times that it was a troll the original post hasn't been edited to say "whoops, this was false, I got trolled". Nope? Post one is still right there with a claim that Amazon said bad stuff.
Exactly. It's exactly how so many were duped into believing that January 6th had any other real outcome than the Electoral votes being certified and why people called for Pence to be executed based on false claims that he had the authority to overturn the election. It's why some Karen can take pictures of a trashcan and the Fraud Squad goes bezerk over "ballots being shredded"....never mind that not a single ballot was found, photo'd, taken, or proven to have been shredded. Just a picture of a trash can full of paper.
Someone says something that they like, and sounds like it fits their chosen narrative, so they just run with it. Same thing happened with the ANTIFA protesters "spotted just outside of town" thing.
People are easily duped when they want the story to be true.
As for Parlor. Boohoo. So Amazon dumped them. If a baker doesn't have bake a cake for a gay couple, Amazon doesn't have to do business with Parlor, Qanon or whoever the heck wants to use the site. Right? Or are we changing our principles again?
If enough people express an interest in Parlor, that is what's called demand. The Parlor CEO will find a way to capitalize on that demand.
