you can argue it's not meaningful but there's no need to point it out in the context of fact checking. it's like how, when bernie's "millions of americans work more than one job" comment was fact checked, they went "WELL A LOT OF THOSE JOBS ARE PART TIME." all this "extra" stuff has nothing to do with "fact checking" and is just there to make bernie look stupid.


No, sorry, it absolutely needs to be fact checked, because providing the necessary context shows it to be completely meaningless, which is arguably even worse than simply being factually incorrect.

If the statement you want to make about "the three richest families" also applies just as well to "a dude with $1 net worth" then your statement is pointless. Or, more accurately, the entire point of your statement is to actively mislead the public about the state of inequality.
