“I don’t trust the MSM; I do my OWN research!”

Translation: I watch random YouTube videos, whose algorithms ensure that I only find “truth” that I'm comfortable with.

to be fair it takes viewing more than one source - and running the stories through the BS filter - to try and get a semblance of the truth

@Pretzel Not if that involves eschewing all reputable sources.

@SW-User agreed

but the problem is that one person's reputable is another person's disreputable one - that's why I think it takes several sources

@Pretzel and that’s the crux of the problem. People will just automatically discount many sources (mostly MSM) because they’ve been “told” not to trust it, and because doing their “own research” makes them feel superior.
