I feel like that's good advice for reasonably intelligent people. But it's kind of a slippery slope, especially for people that are dumb as shit. For example, my neighbor became a hard antivaxxer during COVID.

She mistrusted everything that was actually science, assuming that she since she didn't understand what qualified professionals were saying, they must be wrong. But if someone could make a simple (even if incredibly wrong) argument on YouTube, she'd eat that shit up.
