A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.

Jokes on you, anything controversial relating to Pakistan and India gets spammed and brigaded hourly.

That being said, its a great resource for finding secondary sources. Even if the sources themselves happen to be biased lol.

Anything controversial on any topic especially current events are extremely biased and strictly controlled by editors.

There are countless examples across the site. I won’t mention any because someone will say “that’s not controversial” because they share the same bias as the editor that “owns” the page.

They use what to tell you? Smoke signals? Semaphore?

The same people who told you that now do fact checking on facebook instead

Better than Google because at least it tries to fact check but it should be seen as a search engine
