npub19fcv2nflra09c6p9xz8c8detwj6uy07u4z4m25qh836mnvxtatdq6aay3c (npub19fc…ay3c) Sadly I know too many people for whom "I did my own research!" means "I searched the web for sites that agree with what I already believed, I found three, and it doesn't bother me at all that two of them had sponsored links to Tucker Carlson and Alex Jones."
It's easy to say "vet your sources", but the trouble is, all too often we're talking about people who believe that InfoWars, OANN and Truth Social ARE perfectly valid, trustworthy sources. "It says Truth RIGHT IN THE NAME!"
The problem isn't a shortage of sources. It's a shortage of critical thinking skills.
