That's rolling over and giving up early.

What about things that both Baptists and bootleggers agree are false?

What about things that (assuming we have some latter-day John Snows) can easily be traced to an unreliable source?

I don't know. People will always believe all kinds of crazy things. The way I have always dealt with that is to just state the facts as I know them and then simply move on. That seems to work pretty well, actually. Because eventually that "flat-earther" friend of yours or "the-moon-landing-was-faked" uncle is most likely going to come around (as they almost always do). Point is, there is no need for the "misinformation" label to begin with. It only gets abused by the people who use it anyhow....
