"Meteorologists say it's raining. We scraped up some people who disagree, but we also refuse to look out the window and see for ourselves," says the New York Times.

Normalize not having an opinion on things you don’t understand.

You're allowed to say, “I don't know enough about this to have an opinion on it.”
