Reply to comment by Pristine-Today4611 in Why not use chat gpt to spot obvious fake news? by Irate_Librarian1503

I apologize I have not followed the story closely enough. If I could probe questions I could give a better idea of my personal perspective.

I understand on these topics there is more than one point of view and more than one agenda.

What are the claims on why it's preventing people from voting?

As for the rise. It's only logical with greater access to transportation, greater advancement in technology and the world that more people percentage wise would vote. Population is still on the rise for the age group to vote. So the number should be up. I'm not sure how far up the numbers are and how far down the claims are.

What I'd assume with my ignorance of the sides.

Laws made things more difficult and removed the ability for some to vote. Yet there was still a higher turnout.

This could be a simple, more people care thing. People could be trying harder. But I have to admit I'm an idiot in this area. I try to stay away from politics as I believe both sides have serious flaws.

That’s my whole point most articles are basically opinions. Anyone can take an article and some will say it’s fake news some will say its facts. If it fits their narrative then it’s fact. If it doesn’t it’s fake new.

I think we would be more or less agreeing and our misunderstanding is the term fake news. Their definition of fake news is subjective and opinionated. Which means they are using the terms incorrectly. That's more of an understanding and education issue.

No it’s not an education issue. It’s human nature with all kinds of educational levels. People read something end try to make it fit their narrative. If it doesn’t it’s fake news or ignored all together.
