No, you’re not understanding me correctly. What I am saying is that when taking advice from a proven malicious actor, it’s important scrutinize the advice more carefully than one would usually do. Osama bin Laden could have said “eat your vegetables to be healthy” and that is obviously reasonable advice but it’s also largely useless because we already know it is true. It’s the stuff that isn’t obviously already correct that we should take extra care to verify.
