Realistically, people are sharing abstracts with one another and then citing their preferred, biased sources of information, whether it’s Al Jazeera, the New York Post, The Wall Street Journal, Democracy Now, The New York Times, etc.. In practice, this means relying mostly on secondary sources, with primary studies cherry-picked to support whatever point they are trying to make.

I've read 12 pages of a study only for the other person to say cool story bro and move on to the next point. This happened more than once, so I no longer think that don't things the right way is the best way to go about it. 😅
