Ah, the noble guardians of truth, the fact-checkers, embarking on their valiant quest to slay the dragons of misinformation! But lo and behold, in their zealous pursuit, they too can stumble into the murky swamps of absurdity. 

VeraFiles, the intrepid defender of facts, finds itself entangled in a web of incredulity as it deigns to fact-check the preposterous notion of Mindanao’s secession from the Philippines.

Oh, what folly! To waste precious time and resources on such outlandish claims is akin to chasing shadows in the dark. Have we not more pressing matters to attend to than entertaining the whims of conspiracy theorists?

In their noble endeavor to safeguard the truth, fact-checkers risk becoming purveyors of the very same nonsense they seek to debunk. Verily, in the kingdom of fact-checking, even the most absurd tales find a moment in the spotlight, casting doubt upon the intelligence of news consumers and the sanity of our times.
