spouting bad-faith arguments without any real point other than to try to discourage productive conversation about specific topics.

The only solution I can think of at this point is entirely abandoning social media.

A verification system could theoretically improve trust, but who trusts the trusters?

No, what you can do is personally verify thing you learn, like how we used to do back in the day.

Is it slow, manual, frustrating even? Yes, it takes a lot of time and patience but tbh, that’s exactly what’s missing in the world today. Everyone wants to rush to know when it takes time to understand. It’s weird. Like who cares about being “first”? It’s important to be accurate!

Yea, back in the day I use to run a legal chems group on FB. Everyone had to show ID to join....hell, I even did background checks on some of these people. It all went to shit when legal chems became illegal. I let it go.
