    Because everyone here is a degenerate. Myself included. Bias is everywhere, a single, or even a collection of sources is a porthole on a topic. Lemmy is for memes, not facts. No social media is for facts. I’m a liar and so are you. So are they.

      Friend, nobody seeing or commenting on a pro-union post is a caviar-munching degenerate. While I know social media is prone to bias and misinformation by nature, that doesn’t necessarily mean everything is a lie. Can we not find factual information just because we happen to be on a website with commentary?

          Dude, legacy media is far worse. It’s not even in the same ballpark…

              Curious, how do you get informed then?

                Corroborate threads from multiple, non-including non-approaching sources from different globe- regions, ideally from different time periods. Seek peer reviewed, transparently funded sources.

                If there’s an opinion to be formed, seek it out yourself.

                If someone anonymous tells you something, they had a reason to do so. Hold them in high suspicion, they spent their time on you. No one works for free.

                Trust experts, but diversify sourcing as above.

                Ultimately, everything I just said is a lie.
