We live in an age of misinformation, but it’s not always on purpose. Sometimes we hear things or come to conclusions that end up becoming fact in our heads. Other times it can be malicious with intent to deceive or subvert. Sometimes it’s in the middle.

Where do you draw the line with regards to people being wrong about things and feeling compelled to correct or respond to their wrongness?

Am I wrong?

    100% okay, as long as you correct it at the first reasonable opportunity. In practice a lot of people are less motivated by truth and solutions than by personal cachet and identity, though.
