Right, you use your brain to check for stupidity, and once that check is complete, identity, authenticity and consistency of the message does not matter.
Bitcoin is a trust-less protocol, you cannot and should not trust any node, miner, developer, any online or offline post. Trust is not a thing in the Bitcoin world, and the tradition of not signing communications is generally rooted in this concept.
