It sounds like your real argument is that tech makes us liars and that's okay. I also disagree with that, but that's another discussion.
Why do you care?
I think it's annoying when people flagrantly lie or flagrantly present incorrect information as fact. I don't care if you don't know something, but if you don't know something and then present it as fact, don't get upset when you're called on your bullshit. That's so out of line.
Why do you care enough that you would rather do research into the subject than ignore it and let it be forgotten?
Listen, Ford. Don't flatter yourself. I'm a biologist and I do actual research. It took me literally 30 seconds to find out that diabetes was DISCOVERED in Ancient Egypt. Seriously, I googled diabetes, went to the history section on wikipedia, checked out their source and copy pasted the URL. That's how long it would have taken you to check your information. I'll reiterate though, I'm not even mad that you didn't check your obviously false information, I just think it's ridiculous that you didn't check, got called out, and then had the audacity to blame me for it.
It sounds like you need to learn how to deal with assigning responsibility. You're seriously mad that people call you out for lying. Just think about that position for a second. Ridiculous. Just stop lying.
Also, I have literally never heard anyone say that citing sources is 'horrible'. That's a legitimate first. Damn.
