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.
To be fair, I agree with this, simply because there are many things, that even anons, won't believe until they do the research themselves, and come to the conclusions themselves.
I've seen it time and time again, someone trying to redpill someone, and it failing until the swallower does their own research that leads them back to the redpill.
So doing your own research, also lets you process that information, in whatever way the person needs.
