I keep getting this "Sweden set aside the Euro" into my FB newsfeed.
Fake news.
Sweden never set aside the euro, simply because Sweden never adopted the euro in the first place!
In another fake news, Muhammad is now the most frequently used male baby name in Berlin.
Except it isn't. It's not even close. It's way beyond the top 10 of the most popular male baby names in Berlin; it's not even the most popular Muslim name in Berlin!
Those guys are truly desperate.
Is that what Britons got during their Brexit referendum campaign? Perhaps Juncker was right when he said the biggest mistake of his term was agreeing to Cameron's pleas not to get involved in the Brexit debate in the UK, staying away and not making an effort to debunk some of the blatant lies that the Brexit camp floated around. And now we see the result.
By the way, is there a platform that specifically deals with debunking fake news? Is anyone aware of it? If there isn't I think there should be. Conspiracy theories, anti-vaxxer shit, flat-Earthers, all that sort of stuff. It's a poison that's slowly turning us into zombies.
