You’ll feel like you learned something without realizing it’s totally wrong.

  But that's just "learning", doesn't matter if what you learn is totally wrong or totally right. Some things we learn are right when we learn them, but wrong at a later point. And then it's more learning once you learn that it's right or wrong, or maybe it's a bit wrong in that case, but mostly wrong in another, or it oscillates between wrong/right depending on year, location or even mood. There are no universal truths anyways, might as well just roll with it :)

    It does matter, because it can affect your whole life. If tomorrow I learn that apples cause cancer and eating plastic is good for my stomach I’ll change my habits and quickly have some issues ;) > There are no universal truths anyways Of course there are.

      But just because someone told you that, doesn't mean you need to operate by that? You can still have your own understanding, follow your own way :) The context here was that it's somehow "dangerous" as in information can "pollute" your brain, just because you read it.

        I gave an example about something easy to verify, but things become harder about niche things where it’s not easy to just search on Google to check.
