It depends on if it talks about gossip, dietary choices or politics.

If the tweet or whatever is from someone involved in present day politics, you best know itts true because imo politics are crazy this term.

Gossip, probably found on a teenagers instagram, you know it but most people dont care

Dietary DO NOT TRUST THEY ARE SCAMS!!!

This is a hard question to quantify. I suspect so. No one bothers to check facts. It is much easier to check what is written.

I'm currently in need of checking out health care claims made by alternate medicine. For the fifth time, I have checked the math of their claims and found what sounds like a scientific study to contain faulty math and the math was not much more complicated than %s.

What does that mean? It means that the  paper was not peer read. (Other people in the same field didn't read it). Now let me ask you a question. If a product made claims about what it sold and it used faulty stats, would you buy the product? And yet these people do millions of dollars worth of sales a year. Someone must believe them.

Do you believe the news delivered by Fox or CNN. I live in Canada. 2 years ago we were in the states and someone shot up our house of commons and the grounds killing at least 2 people. It made a huge story for CNN: they claimed that it was a terrorist attack. They kept the story going for hours. It was their number one headline that day. It turns out that one of the people killed was a security guard (unarmed in Canada he is employed to keep dogs off the grass). I tried to tell the people we were staying with that was a bogus story. They thought it was real. The next day the truth came out. CNN made no mention of the real story. They just moved on.

Yes many people believe what they are told or they read. Seems the power of the written word has not lessened, and people do not want to check the facts. There are just too many facts to check.

do you think it was moral for european nations to claim lands in the americas that were already inhabited by native
frez [133]
No, it was not moral or right.

Instead of being submissive and acting as immigrants themselves, Europeans were destructive and killers. They had no respect of property. Andrew Jackson even forced them to move from their homes and most had to settle in Oklahoma.

(not all Europeans, but most)

Answer: D. The power to issue executive order

Explanation:

President Lincoln issued this executive order primarily to weaken the Confederacy's power to wage war against the Union. Lincoln understood that the president could not constitutionally abolish slavery throughout the United States by issuing an Executive Order.

Similarly, Abraham Lincoln used an executive order to manage a constitutional crisis ... Suspension Act of 1863, officially giving the president the power that Lincoln had assumed.

Novosadov [1.4K]

Kristallnacht was an important event as it is considered the beginning of the holocaust. Throughout Germany and Austria, a pogrom was initiated by the Nazis. Synagogues were destroyed and Jewish shops were looted and ransacked. 91 Jews were killed and thousands of Jewish men were taken to concentration camps. This event became known as the November Pogrom or Kristallnacht.
