Rot spreads
95% of the information found on the internet is not worth listening to. Murky water is exponential. People rot their brains and their brain rot spreads, creating more brain rot. So filling your cup with clean stuff isn't a matter of listening more. It's a matter of choosing better information.
Would you take the advice from the average guy? Or girl? What is their input? What is their track record? Choosing not to listen to them isn't disrespectful. It's knowing that they're wrong 50% of the time. Meaning that they 100% don't know what they're talking about.
The average internet-dweller lacks critical thinking and engages in a hive mindset.
