sorry but I'm not paid for using Google for other people.

Youre an adult, which means you can talk to other people without being snarky. And still, you did do exactly that in your other comment.

I was simply pointing out the inconsistency between your comments here. Not everybody is going to browse the whole thread, especially after they've already made a comment. It helps to spread proper information and facts around as much as possible, even if it's annoying to repeat yourself.

Why are we supposed to be so against helping others learn? What's the point in being that pessimistic that you assume they won't care just because of the idea that they proscribed to a narrative?

Your idea that you can try to fight "bullshit" while being unwilling to have a conversation without insulting people for being lazy is why you're being blocked by me. I don't need this level of toxicity in my feed. Be a human being.

May I ask which comment you are refering to? Because above I actually reacted in the same way. By telling people they are wrong and parroting narratives. Then I explained in detail and with sources to someone actively asking.

It's basically filtering. 90% will not care ayway. Of the remaining 10% some will ask, some will look up facts themselves and learn something new. Or they will come back with links of the usual media narrative, which is still a plus as they actually cared to look it up. So they will probably also take a look at other provided sources. From my perspective that is consistent.

And no, I don't think I can really fight bullshit. Because I have a life and am not paid for this. Unlike the army of people paid by lobbyists to push false narratives. So I will decide where to focus my limited time.
