We would google or youtube the idea or person with the search term "exposed" to see what counterclaims debunkers had made. Then you check primary sources to see where each side is getting their info. Also thinking through what agendas are at play to skew perception.

Time and again, it seems I'd find a ton more detailed information in alternative health than mainstream health. Lots more primary source documentation in forgotten history (See Antony Sutton) than mainstream history.
