most are just overwhelmed by the amount of information and believe everything.
I don't know. I think people read and choose to believe 'information' that reinforces their biases. There is so much out there. It takes work to read contrary views. I try hard to do that.
Today's news, for example about the agreement between Trump and Iran. I looked around the world to see what different news sources had to say. It was amazing. It's almost as though they were all reporting on a different event.
Thank you for reading and liking my post. It took some work and that makes it worthwhile.

Yeah that, too. It's easier to stick to the bias.
I generally go by the motto "If I don't have time, I don't have an opinion." as for not being able to research enough to feel comfortable stating an informed opinion. Rather shutting up. Unfortunately, I'm sometimes the only one like that, and have to listen to a huge amount of half-baked or unqualified opinions. And people don't like when you point that out :-D
