This is a great starter pack. Everyone can be fooled by disinformation/misinformation at some point. Surrounding yourself with people who value the truth can help cut down on some of the false info coming at you. Thanks for including me, Nicky!
In an age where information is disseminated with unprecedented speed & reach, stay in touch with people who care about facts.
Don't accept your initial thoughts as truth. Verify information & consider different perspectives before reaching conclusions.

Needed especially now to curb misinformation and disinformation
The number of low-quality or fraudulent publications is rising to hundreds of thousands per year. It is time to reevaluate current publishing models and outline a global plan. Read the 'Reformation of science publishing: the Stockholm Declaration': royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/... #RSOS 🧪

And if you don't think that I'm talking about folks from across the political spectrum, I would invite you to trade places with me for a day to Whack-a-Mole the constant barrage of disinformation, misinformation, laughable nonsense, and just plain ignorant horseshit coming from folks on the left.
Every time I'm so alarmed at the sorry state of basic US civic education that I'm inspired to write a book about how the federal government works—I know exactly what and how I'd write; not a desk-reference tome, not a dummies—I remember that it's because so many folks won't read we're where we are.

6/11 UCP's JUSTIFICATION
Why the caution? Neudorf pointed to the last NDP wage hike (to $15).
He cited a 2019 UCP-struck panel that estimated the hike led to "between 21,000 and 26,000" job losses for young people.
