    I can decide to turn off nonsense podcasts. I can’t decide not to get shot if someone is shooting at me.

    A better metaphor might be screaming “that guy’s got a gun” in a crowded theatre. I might be able to ignore it, but lots of people are going to believe it and act accordingly, and their reaction is probably not going to be good for anyone.
