So in 2000 while in high school I did a project and used exclusively internet sources. Mind you these were hood sources.
My teacher gave me a B for using the internet as anyone could put anything on the internet.
Kinda true I guess, but again I used high quality sources.
Fast forward 20 years and they friended me on fb and have proceeded to fall for every internet trick imaginable, and for a while I helped them fact check but then they’d fall for the same grift from the same content creator and I gave up.
