We live in an age of misinformation, but it’s not always on purpose. Sometimes we hear things or come to conclusions that end up becoming fact in our heads. Other times it can be malicious with intent to deceive or subvert. Sometimes it’s in the middle.

Where do you draw the line with regards to people being wrong about things and feeling compelled to correct or respond to their wrongness?

Am I wrong?

    I have a friend who seems to believe any bullshit he reads on Facebook and “wellness” sites. It’s exhausting how he brings up this moronic shit and then acts smug that I’m “not open to other points of view.” It’s honestly pushed us apart and I just don’t have patience or sympathy for people who constantly fall for obvious misinformation. I’ve just settled on keeping those people at a distance for my own sanity.
