No. Google helps you search the web. It's up to you to look for trustworthy sources but that's not too hard. Just sticking to Wikipedia is fine most of the time.

But that involves reading and this may prove challenging to some.

Facebook is a cesspool.

Is Lemmy and Reddit not cesspools?

So wouldnt that apply to facebook also? And question are a good way of clarifying things, and pointing out flaws in people ideas. I also dont want to be smarter than anyone because that is not really controllable, I want to be wiser and more accurate in what I believe.
