**If whom says it you, matters to you, then you are a fundamentally manipulable person.**
**It does not matter who** says that “2+3=5” because you can look up the justification for this logic sentence. You will find that this justification entails from Peano Arithmetic Theory (PA).
**A logic sentence** is a sentence that could be true or false. Example: It is raining outside.
**People who cannot verify the justification** for a logic sentence, are usually also incapable of determining if such justification could possibly even exist. Therefore, they are incapable of figuring out if a particular logic sentence is indeed a **justified (true) belief**, i.e. legitimate knowledge.
Instead, **the ignorant person resorts to trusting a third party**, who will almost always seek to manipulate this ignorant person into believing claims that benefit someone other than the ignorant person himself.
**It is not a valid solution to trust a third party** to verify the justification for a logic sentence. **There simply is no alternative to learning to do that by yourself.** Otherwise, this third party will find himself strongly incentivized to make you believe a lie that is profitable to him, but potentially highly damaging to you.
You do not need to be able to produce a justification by yourself. You only need to be able to **verify** such justification.
