Oddbean new post about login | logout @4f7ee2c7 Totally agree with you! This same person actually tells people to do their own research, such great advice, right? The whole word 'research' should get an upgrade to escape from this trolled hell hole and soar free in the light of science.
@fa0806db My answer to the “dO yORe Own ReSurCH” crowd is that I do actual scientific research for a living, and shockingly, social media is never a resource. And that’s when the name calling begins, bc that’s all they’ve got. 🙄
@0bffc20c I think many had a reason to believe the nonsense but have no knowledge or facts to defend their views, so they attack to defend what their 'gut' told them to believe in. That's the most difficult crowd to convince they are wrong. I often wonder what makes them think certain things are right. So, last year I wrote 'an opinion can never be a fact'. That wasn't appreciated by everyone 😀 But I think some thought about it and who knows, it may have helped some.
