You ever see someone on tumblr who clearly just reblogs every PSA or news blurb that crosses their dash, even if there are no sources and it's just someone's straight text post or highlighted screenshot of some unknown origin? And then every so often they reblog a post that's claiming another post they reblogged earlier is actually false/dangerous and warning people not to believe it?

Anyway this is your friendly reminder to actually look at sources before spreading information. And put sources in your informational posts so people can verify what you're saying.

#fsh.txt #i know im guilty of just believing things i see on the internet #but im actively working on that in myself and trying not to rb things without sources now #hbomberguys video wasnt just about plagiarism #its about being vigilant yourself about where information comes from #anyway #i just seen a few well meaning but too trusting ppl on my dash #who have had to rb several 'x post is lying actually' corrections #and idk maybe thats a sign one should scrutinize a little more closely
