You’re right. I’ve always tried to verify before posting anywhere. It used to be that fact checking was relatively easy. First, the source originally used was usually solid but I’m finding even traditionally ‘solid’ sources need to be verified. There is just so much b.s. out there now...it’s overwhelming sometimes.
DogPile is an outstanding independent search engine better than duckduckgo as duckduck borrows a portion of results from google.
