YES. Please question every scrap of information that is fed to you. Always and constantly. Info doesn't have to be blatant harmful bullshit for you to question its legitimacy. Dogwhistles and half-truths turn into that blatant bullshit, and by the time it gets there, you're already too deep.
#i see a lot of people just blindly state something because someone else said it#it makes these massive groups of people who just get super aggressive about this one thing#but they're all just blindly following eachother instead of actually truly understanding and believing what they're saying#sometimes it's relatively minor#like earlier i saw a fuckton of people calling this one specific furry a zoophile without giving any context#and when i looked into it that furry had never done or said anyhting to even suggest that#it was all people hearing someone somewhere say it and then all collectively deciding that was The Truth without thinking#but yeah there's cases like that which affect one specific person or event#and then there's shit like molestation of kids during drag queen storytimes#and high detranstition rates#and common botched SRS#people don't suddenly start believing that kindof shit and then hate queer people#they hear something small#like one specific instance of something like that happening#maybe true and maybe not#and then they get fed more and more little tidbits#and it just snowballs into the blind hatred we all see and reject#propaganda and echo chambers are very serious and very scary#be so so careful with that shit
