If I have to investigate and validate or debunk every claim by myself, I'd never have time for anything else. I do a great deal of this already but it's sort of naive and egotistical to think one's capacities in this area are unlimited.

And to the extent that people do, it subjects them to manipulation - a strategy crudely referred to as 'flooding the zone with shit' in order to waste the time of the most discriminating and thoughtful on studying bullshit claims which take far less time to produce than to evaluate.
