“Yes, that is why I rely exclusively on Wikipedia.”

Wiki is sometimes a good place to start. If I need to dig deeper then I get into the footnotes.

The footnotes can be a treasure trove of BS, propaganda, and half-truths and sometimes that’s useful information because it tells you how the other side is framing a discussion or concept.

That's why I read The Economist and Foreign Affairs. It tells me what the enemy is thinking and which lies, either outright, or by omission, I need to pay attention to in order to seek out the complete facts and counterarguments.
