Hey. Given the vast amount of info, how do you decide which sources, like those bringing up "Overvaxxer" ideas, meet the threshold for reliabel, evidence-based curation?
Having watched, read, seen first-hand, and thought about so much (including over-vaxxing) over the past five years has helped us evaluate sources and think critically about them. There's so much more to learn than we can ever know, and we're often overwhelmed.
Looking beyond mainstream sources. Exposing ourselves to new ideas. Being open minded about things we used to believe but now question. All assist in our curation.
We do our best to find information that can help people in their daily lives rather than focusing on things we cannot do much about.
We share what we believe are credible arguments from outside the establishment sources. Sometimes we're misled, but mostly we find the sources are reliable.
No one has to agree with the ideas and information we offer, but we do hope readers will take a look and think with open minds.
Here are some resources (from our Voting Guide at https://tinyurl.com/52wevecb) that started us on the journey to evaluating bias:
