and Facebook is under no obligation to show anyone any content that they do not desire to show them. There used to be a internet before Facebook. The content showed by Facebook was interesting, fun and something people wanted so people visited Facebook for that reason. If that has changed for you, simply stop visiting. The rest of the internet is still here and that content is still out there. It is not Facebook or anyone's responsibility to put your eyeballs on that content.
There's not enough time in the day for you to "fact check" every piece of purported information you come across. You're also not an expert in all areas despite your Gell-Mann amnesia. At some point you're going to have to rely on some sort of external "fact check".
I don't see the need to pay attention to every bit of so-called information streaming by. When there are topics I care about I will do what's necessary to form my own opinion, as I did with covid and the mRna injections.
This is an impossible task. You are reliant on the opinion of experts who you should pay to take the time to evaluate the topic. We use to do this with proper journalism. But the internet has largely destroyed the industry.
Most people just believe what they read on Facebook without even clicking the link. Sucks, but we can't allow idiots to be propagandized by misleading titles. Unfortunately nuance is dead.
