You reap what you sow

"If we enable people in power to lie, you all of a sudden have millions of people doubting an election that was certified in every state. We had seven or eight million more people who voted for [Joe] Biden than for [Donald] Trump. Every state has certified those results. Every court appeal has been turned down. A legitimate election is suddenly questioned by millions of people, including many of the people who are leading our country in government, because we've decided over the last few years to allow lies to be told. This is who we are. You reap what you sow."

- Steve Kerr, Golden State Warriors Coach

It's a warning to think for ourselves, always.

Yes, and not just think for ourselves, but to always be aware of confirmation biases. And also, be aware about the source of your information, and give more credence to those sources that have a history of impartiality and...well, history. Some ranting boob on Youtube is NOT a souce, nor is some random political website on the internet.
