Good reminder for us. I generally dismiss out of hand most things I read on conservative blogs or sites or accounts. They are rife with misunderstanding, poorly sourced propaganda, and uneducated conspiratorial nonsense.

It’s really bad on social media. A recent example was when the Aurora CO apartments taken over by gangs news broke, social media was overloaded with video after video claiming Hells Angels were on the way or various alleged Conservative influencers touting the false claims. It worked great riling folks up by all the replies and comments, but it was entirely fake for various reasons. I believe an article or two were even posted here about it. The importance of research and verification cannot be overstated.
