I don't necessarily mean that concerning suicide. Though on suicide one should probably be very sure what one really wants, not being too ambivalent and I think a certain consistency is probably good when one makes the decision. The topic of this thread is half-knowledge. I think one should be careful when one reads about suicide. Not relying on one single person for example. Because on such a decisive question half-knowledge is dangerous.
I don't think fake news are a huge problem in this forum. (But I am not sure about it.) At least not much more than in other places on the internet. I think fake news and unverified information are part of the internet. Everyone can produce information in the past journalists were the gatekeepers. At least when we talk about the media.
I did not really relate this question to suicide. Rather on other topics like philosphy, politics, religion and other sciences. Are there competent people in this forum? Some people reallly impressed me. I have read some sophisticated and intricate thoughts on certain topics. I don't agree with everything that was expressed though. But here are some interesting individuals in this forum. And our suffering and pain kind of connects us.
I think I tend to making threads with half-knowledge. Due to the fact I make so many threads I usually don't make in-depth research. Though I would consider me somewhat competent on certain topics. At least compared to the average person. I often express my opinion instead of researching the objective truth on something. If I did only threads on issues I am an expert in I could barely make any posts at all. Though I think this applies to many people.
I think on the internet in general one should take information with a grain of salt. One should be critical and have the fact in mind that literally anyone can pretend shit online.
What is your opinion on that?
