I'm going to tell people to do their own research
Do you prefer to do independent research?
Yes, I do research a lot. It prevents me from being hoodwinked by liars.
If you prefer to do your own independent research then you are more than welcome to do so. There are without a doubt pros to this strategy, however also be aware of the drawbacks. If you do not trust other researchers than this is your way to go.
I have no problem with other people who do research and I will tell them that too.
That's fair. People can do research if they want.
