This is one of the scariest (hence one of the most important) issues we are facing these days. And not these days, as people were lied to for centuries. But now, with information spreading like a wildfire, people are so vulnerable to all the misinformation and manipulation. And often they're decent people, trying to make ends meet and not really interested in politics and science, they leave it to the -smart people- with trust and peace. But then some blockhead decides to become an Internet sensation via spreading outrageous news and that's the stuff that gets everyone interested - meaning their starting off point is not reality, but misleading information. Thank you Crash Course for all your amazing educational videos and for being so awesome to come up with those series too!

Go to sleep sheep. Just trust and obey your authority figures because they don't do evil things or have political motives. They are there for -YOU-. Inherently people are going to do what is best for them, we know this because we are smart not idiots. People are devious don't blindly trust an authority just because they are an authority.

How do you feel about Information from a source that credits their opposition or criticises themselves. Say liberal finding positives in conservative or conservative addressing their own issues and vice versa. I find myself 100% invested in listening to whats being said.

John Green seems a bit more tired in this video more than usual. I'm just imagining him and the team working tirelessly with little sleep making sure to make this video as unbiased and trustworthy as possible from every side.

Isn't the info-graphic used 0: 40 just the sort thing you're teaching us to not trust on the internet. As its just an assumption that expert knowledge of three diverse areas doesn't exist in one person.

This subject needs to be taught in elementary school. Imagine how much false information we had before the internet. They could literally write whatever they wanted with no way to disprove.
