> Not all fields of science are created equal.
But FB, and other platforms, treat them as if they are when making their decisions on what to censor. FB even trusts so called "independent fact checkers," who don't even claim to be scientists and write mostly on political topics, to act as arbiters of truth.

And it's these journalists that FB is relying on for its determination of fact, not the actual scientists.
