Agreed information is key. The internet is such a wonderful source of information, if you know how to use it correctly. It can also be the worst source of information. I wish schools would focus on that a lot more. We had to learn how to find and collect information from a library, that's outdated. How to responsibly find and collect information from the world wide web needs to be taught.
Btw, how do you split tables without everything turning into a mess :)

Indeed. No longer is it important to be knowledgeable, not in the information era.
Rather it is important to know how to source verified, accurate information on a per needs basis... Sadly the boomer generation seems to be falling short on that front in spades.
...I wish I could convince them that Ellen isn't going to give them $200 for sharing that post, I really wish I could.
Or that Vaccines do save lives. And that the COVID situation isn't a new-world-order conspiracy theory.

Just need to show them this one picture:
1 recieved the vaccine.
SmallPox estimated to have killed up to 300 million people in the 20th century and around 500 million people in the last 100 years of its existence.
^ this thing killed potentially 800m people, in a time periode of ~200 years.
Even those that survived, were left with horrible scarring.
Around 1 out of 3, that got it, went blind (hemorrhagic smallpox, you would see like pure red eyes, due to blood).
This is why we vaccinate.
Those anti-vaccination people forget the lessons of history, that lead to vaccinations.
