This site is for us to share our research with others. "Always verify" makes sense as a precaution, but "Do your own research" just sounds lazy and really isn't helpful.
Not everyone can "monitor the situation" to the degree of rigor that thorough research requires. Many are still waging a daily war of just trying to survive among crippling debt and overwhelming inflation. Some use GAW simply to help filter out the excess noise on X (since most posts here are just reposts of stuff from X anyway).
Please be mindful that many are not as blessed with their free time as you might be.
I have told folks (mainly brainwashed sheeple) who would rather argue with me to research it for themselves. I did this because I believed it would mean more to them and also because I hoped it would instill a desire to research further. I also encouraged questions, sited sources - I did anything and everything but spoon feed it directly to them. Oh, I probably should explain, I love researching (a lot!) but it's difficult to stay on task - I find myself popping in and out of hundreds of other rabbit holes - so yeah, as a career I probably would make a terrible researcher, lol.
