Be careful who you follow. In some circles it's called 'Eat the meat spit out the bones' or something like that. I certainly don't have the autists skills or the researchers time to invest (job, family, person with chronic illness to care for) but i still need to learn and be informed.
My approach, watch and read when I can, find those who are reliable, giving freely, point to others who can help inform and stop watching the clowns. Use discernment, use your God given brains, think critically of what is being presented, what is happening, and what the clowns are saying. with that combination you should be able to figure the truth out pretty well.
Be prepared, food, water, clothing, bullets. Be ready, offer a helping hand, dump those who betray you.
Finished with my rant.
