Smug "I am too smart to be fooled" liberalism, I'd guess, based on the fact this legitimate point is currently being downvoted.

It's being down voted because it's an accusatory, non-answer to a speculative statement. The parent comment literally stated "I want to verify this." It's not a legitimate point in any sense of the word legitimate.

I'd have myself a hard think about what lead you to writing such a comment up.

I don't. It matches anecdotes at best. That's why I want to verify it.

That makes sense.

Ironically though, just as another anecdote (and to the best of my knowledge), the very first "fake news" right-wing site who's operator was confronted, ended up being a left-voting liberal who [paraphrasing] "hated conservatives and people on the right, and wanted to spread disinformation to them to pollute their arguments".

But I guess we'll never know, so the best solution is still non-censorship.
