Being sent health advice via facebook screenshots and whatsapp forwarded messages in the large family whatsapp group.
How can people not wrap their heads around the fact that these are not reliable sources of information. Every time one gets sent, there's a round of support for the content of the message, until someone from my family has to find an article explaining why it's wrong.
I don't know why this has bothered me so much, but it just makes you feel a bit helpless when you realise that completely unsupported information is seen as perfectly valid by them. And goes a certain way to explaining why so many of them voted Brexit.
This, my brother-in-law's wife, is a nightmare for this she is the original Dr Google just sending out loads of information which I keep asking for her to provide the source for which she cant. Drives me nuts
