I’m educated properly and it takes me a very long time to sift through the mud to stay informed.

I really don’t have this issue…?

I don’t go on facebook or other social media so I don’t see that bullshit. And I don’t watch news on the TV, be it 24 hour news or any other.

I get most of my news from news.google.com, and then clicking on “full coverage” (or whatever that button says now they’re constantly changing it) so I can get an overview of several sources reporting on the same topic.

I will sometimes learn about news on lemmy, but I will always independently confirm it (takes 15 seconds) before considering it fact.

It’s so fucking easy, I’m sorry. There is no excuse.
