Yep, it's a propertarian conspiracy theory:
This is why fact checks are bullshit. Reuters admits that
Now to make the statement false they bring in a strawman "Stated goal" condition and prove that particular part to be false, then claim that makes the whole thing false.
Such bullshit.

Yes, it is possible to fact check with integrity. Not like this example.
Opinions should not enter into fact checking as opinions are not fact.
